HEAD judge Shirley Ballas has revealed she’d share the dance floor with Anton Du Beke as the routines for this year’s Strictly Come Dancing finalists are revealed.
Speaking on Strictly: It Takes Two, host Janette Manrara welcomed Ballas to the studio, where the judge revealed what Strictly star she’d love to share the dance floor with were she given the chance.
After choosing a ‘loose silk shirt’ for her partner, she said:
“Well, the person I would pick wasn’t actually a Strictly champion, he was a professional. It would have to be Anton Du Beke”.
