The BBC is considering hiring three new presenters to host Strictly Come Dancing, it’s been reported, as the show undergoes the biggest shake-up in its history.
Already this week, news that five pro dancers have been axed from the 2026 series has been reported. Now, three months after Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman’s final show, the BBC has another trick up its sleeve to try and revamp the series.
BBC to hire three new Strictly presenters?
According to The Sun, “nothing is off the table” when it comes to the new series of the BBC dance show.
After the likes of Holly Willoughby and Alan Carr pulled out of the race to host the series, the BBC now has a shortlist of seven candidates in the running for the biggest show on TV, it’s claimed.
The One Show’s Alex Jones is said to remain the frontrunner. Zoe Ball, Rylan Clark, Alison Hammond, Angela Scanlon, Emma Willis and Fleur East are also in the mix to sign on as the new Strictly presenters, it’s claimed.
