Krishnan Guru Murthy - a journalist and broadcaster who's ready to place his trust in Strictly and get into character It’s been a rollercoaster contest for comedian Eddie Kadi. He went from scoring this year’s first 10 just a fortnight ago - even if that was a brain-freeze from head judge Shirley Ballas - to two consecutive dance-offs and ultimately, elimination. The samba, Strictly’s dance of death which accounts for more than 20% of eliminations, claimed its second victim of the series. Yet he’s also justified in wondering what might have been. He’s more of a natural dancer than Zara McDermott, who still looks timid and tentative more than a month into the contest. He was the host of Family Fortunes from 1987 to 2002, as well as appearing on shows like C oronation Street, Extras, Brookside, Death in Paradise, and Midsomer Murders. He has also graced theatre audiences with his performances in productions such as Hairspray, Legally Blonde: The Musical, and 42nd Street.

Amy grew up watching Strictly Come Dancing from her hometown of Caerphilly, South Wales and in 2017 joined the series as a professional dancer. In 2019 she danced all the way to the final with CBBC’s Karim Zeroual and most recently she partnered EastEnders star James Bye. Worst dance: Les Dennis was left stranded at the foot of the scoreboard but I suspect he’ll be popular with the public. Nikita Kana and Zara McDermott also disappointed.
