Strictly bosses plot overhaul as BBC show loses its sparkle

11/1 @ 9:25am by Morten Nielsen

Strictly Come Dancing chiefs are preparing a crisis meeting after falling ratings and criticism of its revamped presenting team

Emma Willis has reportedly been well received, while Josh Widdicombe and former professional dancer Johannes Radebe have faced complaints over missed lines and awkward timing

Producers are expected to consider major changes for next year, including moving Radebe to the judging panel if a place opens

The programme has also struggled to recruit headline contestants, although Jaime Winstone’s performances have attracted praise from famous admirers.
