Strictly’s Anton Du Beke gives Susanna Reid a ballroom dancing lesson as he shows her around the Good Morning Britain studio
Anton Du Beke gave Susanna Reid a ballroom dancing lesson on Wednesday’s episode of Strictly Come Dancing.

Susanna, who finished second at Strictly in 2013 with Kevin Clifton, grinned from ear to ear during the impromptu dance class.

During the interview, Susanna asked Anton if he would consider taking over as a judge on American Dancing With The Stars after Len Goodman recently announced his retirement.
However, Anton doesn’t think he’ll be on the panel of the US show any time soon and would always choose Strictly first.
He said, ‘Well, you’re just a phone call away. But no, I doubt that will happen. I would never choose that one over this one, but I don’t think I would get the call.
“I think you have a choice between one or the other and for me it’s always here.”

Anton was also asked about Kym Marsh, who had to leave this weekend’s show because she tested positive for Covid-19.
The judge said: ‘She comes on beautifully, I love her dance style. She will be missed this weekend as she has to go through protocol, but hopefully she will be fine.”
Meanwhile, former judge Bruno Tonioli will make a surprise return to Strictly Come Dancing for the Christmas special.

But MailOnline has learned that Bruno plans to appear on the show’s Christmas special and will be singing instead of doing a dance performance.
The source said: ‘Bruno loves to sing. He made an opera album in 2016 called An Italian Romance and who knows, it might be a new career for him.’
A spokesperson for Strictly told MailOnline: “We are strictly still working on all plans for the Christmas special, so we will not be commenting on this at this stage.”
The Italian choreographer quit the show in May after 18 years, admitting flying back and forth between the UK and US for the show had become “too much” for him.
