Strictly shock as new star attracts surge of bets days into rehearsals

Ellie Simmonds, Jayde Adams, Will Mellor and Tyler West joined their fellow celebrities and pro partners as they head to the studios. 

Judge Shirley Ballas appeared in jovial spirits as she grinned and held a bouquet of flowers and a box of chocolates as she left the BBC studios. 

The pre-recorded launch show, which was originally set to air on September 17, was postponed until tonight following the death of Queen Elizabeth II.

Strictly launch show, which was filmed on September 7, will see this year’s celebrity contestants discover their professional partners for the first time.

The couples have been in training ahead of their debut performance, which will be a single day after the launch, in its planned slot on September 24.

Government guidance has stated that entertainment events are under no obligation to be cancelled or postponed occasions during the mourning period, though it has been heavily suggested as a mark of respect.

It comes just a week after the first trailer for this year’s Strictly was released, showing this year’s professional dancers.

This series has also seen the introduction of four new professionals, European cup winner Vito Coppola, Chinese National Champion Carlos Gu, former Under 21 British National Champion Lauren Oakley and Latin dance champion Michelle Tsiakkas. 

This series will be the first in three years to be broadcast without Covid measures, which forced bosses to introduce restrictions including ‘bubbles’ for training and limited audience numbers.
