BBC and The Guardian report a major refresh for Strictly Come Dancing as Emma Willis, Josh Widdicombe and Johannes Radebe take the helm. New professional dancers join the show, the partner-reveal is staged in front of a studio audience, and the format gets a broad shake‑up while still delivering the familiar glitz.
