Speaking at his All Balls and Glitter UK tour, Craig, 57, revealed bosses had told the judges that the ballroom dancer, would be waltzing back to the panel this autumn.
He told The Sun: 'I really love Anton. I think he is fantastic. I think last year he did a great job on Strictly as a judge.

'Craig, went on to tell the audience that he did miss his co-star Bruno, who had been on the Strictly panel since the show launched in 2004. The choreographer said they remain to be 'great mates' after working side by side for 16 years together.
He went on to reveal that while he did miss the Italian's energy - Bruno actually struggled to deal with his dramatic performance. He said: 'He always used to come off and say, ''Darling, I am exhausted. '' 'And I used to say, ''Well, you created this character darling.
