BBC Strictly Come Dancing star Jody Cundy kicked off series after finally overcoming 'fear'

Strictly Come Dancing star Adam Thomas has spoken of having to perform in last weekend's dance-off.

Strictly Come Dancing star Amy Dowden has said going through treatment for breast cancer has resulted in the “toughest year” of her life. The 33-year-old appeared on the Stand Up To Cancer live show on Channel 4 at the Francis Crick Institute to celebrate a decade of the appeal for Cancer Research UK.

Strictly Come Dancing star Lauren Oakley has responded to the outpouring of messages about her appearance following the show's Halloween special. The professional dancer is currently competing for the first time in the BBC One dance contest after joining the programme last year.

Strictly Come Dancing star Layton Williams has spoken about how his nerves have got the better of him despite getting a standing ovation for his most recent performance with dance partner Nikita Kuzman.

A much-loved Strictly Come Dancing star made his much-anticipated return to the BBC dance show on Tuesday (Oct 31) as fans made the same demand. Kevin Clifton, 41, appeared on Strictly's spin-off show It Takes Two for its Halloween special as he took to Choreography Corner to give his verdict.

Many Strictly Come Dancing viewers were left asking 'who' before saying it took them 'ages' to recognise one of the show's professional dancers. The confusion came during the latest results show which aired on Sunday night (October 30).

Strictly Come Dancing may be about to lose Karen Hauer from its professional line-up, some of the fans believe. Part of the choreography team since 2012, the Venezuelan-American, 41, has partnered with celebrities including Westlife singer Nicky Byrne, TOWIE's Mark Wright, Pop Idol winner Will Young and comedian Chris Ramsey, but Karen's dream of lifting the Glitterball trophy looks to be gone forever. Following her and Eddie Kadi's elimination from the competition last weekend, various Reddit users have now noticed a particular tone of body language from the pro, which they believe could signal her departure from the show.

Strictly Come Dancing stars have sent their best wishes to Amanda Abbington after she revealed why she left the competition.

Strictly star Ellie Leach has said she is 'so thankful' after she scored her first 10 of the season on Saturday night's live show.

Amanda Abbington's partner shared a cryptic post on Instagram just hours before it was revealed that she had quit Strictly Come Dancing.

Strictly Come Dancing bosses have spoken out in response to favouritism reports, which claimed EastEnders star Bobby Brazier, 20, and documentary maker Zara McDermott, 26, were being favoured over other celebrities on the show. The statement comes after a drama-filled Strictly week which saw Amanda Abbington leave the show and Eddie Kadi shockingly dumped, despite scoring the first 10 of the series a few weeks ago.

Strictly Come Dancing's Zara McDermott has told fans she 'let herself down' after ending up in the dance-off for the second time. The BBC dance contest returned this weekend for its fifth week which saw 11 of the 12 remaining couples take to the ballroom to compete for their spot on the show.

Eddie Kadi's time on Strictly Come Dancing has come to an end as he lost out to reality star Zara McDermott during Sunday's tense dance-off. Following the comedian and actor's performance on Saturday, he and dance partner Karen Hauer performed their routine again - which was a Samba to Calm Down by Rema and Selena Gomez.

This weekend, Eddie Kadi became the fourth contestant to leave Strictly Come Dancing after he faced off Zara McDermott in the dance off. The tense dance off saw both couples performing their routines for a second time.

Strictly Come Dancing star Nadiya Bychkova has shared a brand new career move after being 'snubbed' from the latest series. The professional dancer wasn't chosen to have a celebrity partner during the latest run of the BBC One dance contest.

Strictly Come Dancing star Nadiya Bychkova has once again shared her love for Janette Manrara after they were last seen celebrating her birthday together. At the end of last month, the dancer was up north for an appearance on BBC's Morning Live, meaning she could catch up with Janette who moved to Cheshire earlier this year.

Unfortunately for Jody Cundy CBE, he became the third celebrity to depart the dance floor on Strictly Come Dancing. He and his dance partner Jowita Przystal performed their Salsa to Samba de Janeiro by Bellini while Eddie Kadi and Karen Hauer performed their American Smooth to Sex Bomb by Tom Jones again.

Strictly Come Dancing's Eddie Kadi joked "there had to be a catch" as he spoke about escaping elimination just a week after scoring the first perfect ten of the series. The comedian and partner Karen Hauer's American Smooth failed to impress on Saturday, landing them in the dance-off.

Strictly Come Dancing fans couldn't help but trigger an age-old debate relating to the hit dance show as the latest results were revealed. Week four of the BBC One competition saw Layton Williams smash this year's record by achieving the highest score of the series so far.

Strictly Come Dancing star Karen Hauer has broken her silence after viewers made the same observation. Those tuning in to the BBC One dance contest over the weekend couldn't help but notice the professional dancer seeming unimpressed as she returned to the ballroom with comedian Eddie Kadi.
