Strictly Come Dancing Announces These New Measures Will Be Introduced This Year, Amid Ongoing Investigation

Strictly's resident team of professionals performing during last year's series

Strictly Come Dancing bosses have detailed new measures being introduced for this year’s series, which aim to “strengthen welfare and support” behind the scenes of the reality show.

For the past two months, the long-running BBC dance show has been facing an internal investigation, after complaints were made by three of former professional Giovanni Pernice’s celebrity dance partners (including actor Amanda Abbington) about his conduct during rehearsals.
