Strictly 2025 cast warned of ‘shock eliminations’: ‘It’s going to be tough’

Claims it'll make the 'whole series tense and exciting from start to finish'

The cast of Strictly Come Dancing 2025 have been handed a warning by former show pro Brendan Cole: “This year is going to be tough, and there are going to be some shock eliminations.”

Brendan, who competed on the show between 2004 and 2018, singled out a couple of celebrities who he expects will leave early on.

But he said with so many good dancers in the mix, there are going to be some “strong contenders leaving sooner than anyone would have thought”.
