Bruce Forsyth is keeping us guessing about Strictly hosting

Bruce Forsyth has still not signed up for the new series of Strictly Come Dancing, according to a report. The veteran host is thought to be undecided if he wants to return.

It has been claimed that he was offered a £660,000 deal at a meeting in April to host the show.

However, the 82-year-old has not made up his mind whether to accept the position and still has a month to let the producers know his intentions.

A source told the Daily Mail: “It’s up to Bruce as to whether he feels up to it. It is a long haul and gruelling for him.”

Forsyth refused to be drawn on his Strictly plans, in an interview last month he told the Sunday Express: “I am not going to confirm whether I am going back to Strictly or not – that information is strictly confidential.”

In April, his agent Jan Kennedy said that the presenter was waiting to hear about planned changes to the programme before making up his mind.

His co-host on the ballroom dancing competition Tess Daly confirmed that she is to return to the show some time ago.
