The future of Strictly Come Dancing has been confirmed by the BBC, following the allegations of bullying made against two of the professional dancers.
It has been revealed that the show is set to return later this year, despite the allegations made against professional dancers, Graziano Di Prima and Giovanni Pernice who will not be participating in the show.
A BBC announcement about ticket sales for the show later this year confirmed that the dance competition would be continuing in the autumn.
A statement read: ‘Strictly Come Dancing will be bringing the sparkle back to Saturday nights on BBC One later this year.
‘And in advance of this year’s live shows we have an exciting opportunity to experience a taste of the magical studio experience by applying for tickets to watch our Strictly pros in action!”
