Two male dancers have left the show amid allegations of misconduct, and last week the BBC announced it would introduce production staff to chaperone all rehearsals from the next series.

Not as important as top gear was but they got rid of that

[@PC1974]

It's supposedly their flagship show, but after 20 years of the same format, I could do with it getting the axe. I don't think there's any coming back from these never-ending allegations.

Because dance is all we have left as a nation

[@NoWindNoSunNoPower]

Dancing is haram.

[@CatsandJP]

It got the name from the amalgamation of the 1992 Australian Movie “Strictly Ballroom”…and the 1950-1998 show “Come Dancing” ……in 2004 it become ….Strictly Come Dancing

The BBC; not about British programming, but about programming the British.

It’s literally my life we can’t lose it

[@CJones-99]

Is it literally? Really?

[@GKSC]

I don't care. Never watched it.

So pleased to see the end of this tired woke show
