Strictly Come Dancing 2024 judges: Meet the fabulous panel

As a seasoned film enthusiast who has seen more dance movies than I can count on my fingers (and toes!), I can confidently say that the return of Strictly Come Dancing is an event I eagerly await every year. And this year, as we celebrate its 20th anniversary, it promises to be a spectacle like no other.


It’s time for a fresh season! Yes, starting next week, you can catch the breathtaking talent show on your screens once again. This season promises performances that are unlike any other, as it marks its 20-year milestone on television.

This upcoming season boasts an illustrious collection of celebrities, a captivating array of skilled dancers, and not forgetting the always-impressive judging team. It’s definitely not an event you’d want to skip!

Since 2021, the panel of judges for Strictly Come Dancing has stayed consistent with Anton Du Beke stepping in for Bruno Tonioli who left the program after a 18-year tenure.

Eager to distribute high scores throughout the competition, let me share with you all essential details about the Strictly Come Dancing 2024 judging panel.

Anton Du Beke has been a part of Strictly Come Dancing ever since its debut in 2004. Recently, it was disclosed that he will be transitioning from the dance floor to the judge’s table, taking Bruno Tonioli’s place in 2021.

Following eighteen years of service as a judge, Tonioli opted to resign from the show because his obligations to shoot Dancing with the Stars for Disney Plus in the United States meant he couldn’t simultaneously film the series in the UK.

Beyond being a skilled professional dancer, Du Beke also boasts an exceptional vocal talent. In November 2017, he unveiled his first studio album, “From the Top,” which peaked at number 21 on the UK Albums Chart.

For quite some time now, I’ve been captivated by a prolific author who has penned an enchanting series of novels, all revolving around the mystical Buckingham Hotel and its intriguing characters, Raymond and Nancy. These literary gems include: “One Enchanted Evening,” “Moonlight over Mayfair,” “A Christmas to Remember,” “We’ll Meet Again,” and “The Ballroom Blitz.” Each one is a delightful journey that I eagerly embark upon whenever I get the chance.
