To the BBC,
Well done BBC for creating another storm about Strictly Come Dancing. Clap. Clap. Clap.
I understand that you want to change the format a bit; you’ve decided to have 14 dancers this year and have a “professional dance group, dedicated to performing routines on a scale never before seen on Strictly. The group will feature Strictly regulars and some new professional faces. The group routines promise to deliver show-stopping dance spectacles.”
What you don’t seem to realise is that you could make the show a lot more popular and entertaining by just getting big names to take part, that would have been a good first step.
Instead, you go in all guns blazing and axe some of Strictly’s favourite dancers. Lilia and Darren for god’s sake! And poor Ian and Matthew! Now you’ve gone and upset Brian Fortuna and he’s jumped ship. Well done again.
The three new boys look nice and shirtless and I’m sure they’ll be great, but do you think you’ve been a bit rash?
Also, you haven’t given Darren, Lilia, Ian or Matthew any good celebs in recent years. I’m starting to think you did that on purpose so you can fire them. Hmmmmm.
Yours,
