Darcy has quit Strictly. Who'll replace her?

[CatsCatsCatsCatsCats1980]

Any guesses? 👗👡

Ooh I agree Mrsemcgregor!! I thought he was really good!

Matthew Cutler?
Ian Waite?

SO sad that Darcey is leaving. It was one of the highlights - seeing her glide on in some beautiful dress!!

Either Karen Hardy or Anton would be great

Karen Hardy would be the better choice.
She's a better all-rounder than Anton. His ballroom is sublime, but his Latin is much weaker.

Someone with a knowledge from dance as a professional not some 'celebrity' former contestant please.

Good luck to Dame Darcey in whatever she does in future.

I'd like Natalie Lowe to do it. She's so supportive and lovely but has good constructive criticism.

And I want Bruno to be replaced by Brendan for the Shirley dynamic.

I will miss Darcey, and would like another ballroom dancer as the next judge - most of the ones already mentioned would be fab!

I agree with Cora, Matthew or Iain.

Whoever it is, I hope it’s a woman.

As long as it’s someone from a dance background- not just chosen for their looks. I agree that Bruno should go - he’s so irritating

Surely it has to be a woman, they won't have three male judges. Haven't a clue who could replace her, think people will want someone reasonably well-known and popular. Shirley B hasn't exactly been a great success.

I despise Shirley so hope it’s someone who hates her! 😂

Someone with a knowledge from dance as a professional not some 'celebrity' former contestant please.

Exactly-let’s hope it’s not another Alesha .

Ian Waite
Karen Hardy
Ola Jordan
Darren Bennett

All 9f these names were mooted before Shirley joined I think they're seen as a bit old hat. So I think it will be someone new to the show

I hope it’s not Anton. He thinks he’s funny but he’s often not.

I like Shirley and it’s good to have someone who knows their stuff so a ballroom person would be best.

lets hope its not that old dog Ola

Any lady would be welcome and Natalie Lowe would be my choice

Time Bruno knobbed off

Yes Alfonzo

Flavia?

Or Alyona

Anya Garnis, who was briefly on the show would be good, Camilla Dallerup or Iveta. Camilla does the NZ version though, I think.

Some of the others who would be good already do other versions of the show (as judges). I would like Karen, Erin, Ian, Matthew or Anton - I wonder if they would ask Kristina?

I would not like Brendan (doesn't he do another version already?) as he does have a habit of falling out with people and I am already weary of any claims that the judges have favourites/haterz. Not the Jordans either (same reasons).

Alfonzo was fun but I assume he was a previous Cleb winner like Alesha?

Brenda won’t get the gig while Shirl is still there. Bad blood.

I agree Bruno has worn out his welcome. Many seasons ago...

For me, Erin or Natalie would be great to replace Darcey. To replace Bruno I think Ian Waite, given Zoe has left ITT.

Last season I must admit I occasionally wanted to burn the desk and just get a throne for Craig. Job done.

Anyone but Anton. I’m sure he knows his stuff but I have no confidence at all that he’d be able to give sensible criticism without making it All About How Hilariously Funny Anton Is. A little of his shtick goes a long way.

Anyone but Anton.

He's so unfunny it makes me cringe. He thinks far too much of himself.

Iain and Karen were both lovely.

Who is going to take Zoe s place on ITT ?

Billy it's not been announced zoe is leaving yet

I would love if it was Karen Hardy

AntonBrendanAlfonzo all a big NO from me

Hadn’t heard Zoe was going
