Strictly Come Dancing returned for its twentieth series with a launch show on 23 September 2022 on BBC One, with live shows beginning the following day on 24 September.[1] The launch show was originally scheduled to be broadcast on 17 September, but was postponed out of respect following the death of Queen Elizabeth II.[2] Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman returned as hosts, whilst Rylan Clark and Janette Manrara returned to host Strictly Come Dancing: It Takes Two.[3]

In May 2022, the BBC announced that Craig Revel Horwood, Motsi Mabuse, Shirley Ballas and Anton Du Beke would return to the judging panel.[4] It was also confirmed that Bruno Tonioli, who had been absent from the two previous series due to travel restrictions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, would be permanently leaving the show.[5]

In August 2022, the BBC confirmed that the show would return to the Blackpool Tower Ballroom for the first time since the seventeenth series.[6][7] It was also announced that there would be a special themed week to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the BBC, with the couples dancing to "a theme tune from an iconic BBC programme or in tribute to one of the BBC's most loved services".[8][9]

Professional dancers

On 22 February 2022, it was announced that Oti Mabuse was to leave the series after seven years,[10] and on 28 March 2022, that Aljaž Škorjanec would be leaving the series after nine years.[11] Three days after Škorjanec's departure, the BBC announced that Dianne Buswell, Nadiya Bychkova, Graziano Di Prima, Amy Dowden, Karen Hauer, Katya Jones, Neil Jones, Nikita Kuzmin, Cameron Lombard, Gorka Márquez, Luba Mushtuk, Giovanni Pernice, Jowita Przystał, Johannes Radebe, Kai Widdrington and Nancy Xu would be returning to the series.[12]

In July 2022, the BBC announced that four new professional dancers would be joining the sixteen remaining returning pros. These are: European cup winner Vito Coppola who was also a professional dancer on the Italian version of the show in 2021, Chinese National Champion Carlos Gu, former Under 21 British National Champion Lauren Oakley and Latin dance champion Michelle Tsiakkas.[13][14] Jowita Przystał received a celebrity partner for the first time, as did new professionals Vito Coppola and Carlos Gu, while Neil Jones, Luba Mushtuk, Cameron Lombard and other new professionals Lauren Oakley and Michelle Tsiakkas did not receive a partner.[15]

Couples

On 4 August 2022, the first two celebrities announced to be participating in the series were Will Mellor and Kym Marsh.[16][17] Celebrity contestants continued to be revealed until 13 August 2022, when the full line-up was announced.[18][19][20]
