Last series we saw Angie make an early exit, Jenna copying her and making an early exit, Zoella make an early exit, Linda and Paul making a late exit, Jim Chapman existing, Fearne top the leaderboard, Tristan's Tango, byt Kylie Minogue and Aljaž Skorjanec won out in the end.

This series we have a twist; Everything will be written in detail. Newpaper reports, rumours and even judges' comments. Everything is bigger and better.

The BBC have revealed that they will be inducting new methods of announcing celebrities to make it like “a fun guessing game”

Last series we had clues to guess the celebrities, and the BBC have stated that they will take this idea one step further.

A BBC spokesperson told us “This year, we will release separate hints to the celebrities each day until the full lineup is revealed. This way it will be like a fun guessing game for everyone to play. Some of the hints are very vague, so you better get your thinking caps on!”

This new format has been a hit with the critics. One said “This will wind up the excitement and anticipation for next series! We can’t wait!”

Last series saw queen of pop Kylie Minogue win with her professional partner, Aljaž Skorjanec, beating red-hot favourites Tristan Evans and his partner Camilla Dallerup.

The Glitterball will be returning to our screens very shortly.

Presenters Tess Daly and Zoe Ball have confirmed they will be returning for another spin of The Glitterball.

The presenting duo have confirmed they will be returning to our screens soon for The Glitterball.

Daly, 46, presented the show last year and received acclaim for her talents, alongside Ball, 45. Their bubbly personas went down a hit with the viewers. An hour ago Daly tweeted:


The Glitterball is back very soon.

Yay

The BBC has officially revealed the pro lineup, and there are some unfamiliar faces.

With The Glitterball coming back shortly, it was about time we heard about the pros.

The official pro lineup is:

Aljaž Skorjanec
Anton Du Beke
Giovanni Pernice
Keo Motsepe
Kevin Clifton
Neil Jones
Pasha Kovalev

Allison Holker
Anya Garnis
Elena Samodanova
Janette Manrara
Joanne Clifton
Karen Clifton
Natalie Lowe
Oti Mabuse

Just under half of the lineup are brand new! Giovanni Pernice, Keo Motsepe, Neil Jones, Allison Holker, Elena Samodanova, Janette Manrara and Joanne Clifton are all new faces and we can’t wait to see them!

The Glitterball is back soon.

Craig Revel Horwood, Karen Hardy, Len Goodman and Ian Waite are all set to judge another series.

Following a big pro shakeup, the BBC has announced that all four judges will be returning. A BBC spokesperson said: “We are over the moon that our wonderful judges are back in the ballroom. They all bring something unique to the show and it wouldn’t be the same without them”.

The Glitterball starts soon.

Rumours suggest that weatherman Tomasz Schafernaker is being lined up to compete on The Glitterball.

Tomasz Schafernaker, 37 is reportedly being lined up for the show. The Polish weatherman joined BBC Weather Centre in 2000 and is known for sticking the finger live on TV in the belief he was off camera. The video went viral on YouTube.

An unknown source said “Tomasz would be great for a show like The Glitterball. He’s a hunky weatherman who we all know and love. He would fit in perfectly with any cast!

The Glitterball returns soon.

Singer and actress Kellie Crawford has been seen leaving Elstree studios with The Glitterball professional Pasha Kovalev.

Crawford, 41, is most well known for being in the original “Hi 5!” troup with her partner in crime Chats. It wouldn’t be a surprise if she did The Glitterball, as fellow “Hi 5!” member Charli Robinson has participated on “Dancing with the Stars”.

She was seen leaving Elstree studio with pro Pasha Kovalev, 36. We think that this means Kellie is almost definitely doing the show, and could even be partnered with Pasha.. A BBC spokesperson refused to comment.

She's not the only likely candidate, as weatherman Tomasz Schafernaker is reportedly in talks to join the show.

The Glitterball will be back soon.
