BBC dance show “Strictly Come Dancing” is set to add professional dancer Johannes Radebe to its presenting team, joining Emma Willis and comedian Josh Widdicombe, according to multiple UK outlets. Reports say Radebe will move into a host role for the show’s next series, which is expected to return in autumn on BBC One, with the change described as a shift in the Saturday-night hosting line-up previously associated with Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman.
Radebe’s new position prompts questions from fans about whether he will continue performing in the ballroom. He addresses those concerns by saying he is not retiring from dancing, and he indicates that a “plan” is in place, suggesting he will still be involved in movement and appearances tied to the competition. Separate coverage also includes discussion of his work outside “Strictly,” noting he is currently starring in the musical “Kinky Boots” in London.
Overall, the reporting aligns on Radebe’s selection as a presenter alongside Willis and Widdicombe, while emphasizing his assurance that he remains actively connected to dancing on the show.
