The Strictly Come Dancing companion show, It Takes Two, is reportedly set for a radical format transformation, with plans to become a vodcast. This change would involve filming episodes for viewers while also recording them for podcast listeners, a move aimed at attracting a broader audience, particularly younger demographics.
Host Departures and Denials
Current hosts Janette Manrara and Fleur East are rumoured to be departing the show, although the BBC has explicitly denied claims that either presenter has been “axed”. The proposed refresh is intended to reflect evolving audience consumption habits, following the success of similar companion shows like The Traitors: Uncloaked and The Apprentice: You’re Fired.
Potential Replacements for Main Show
Separately, former It Takes Two hosts Zoe Ball and Rylan Clark are reportedly in contention to replace Claudia Winkleman and Tess Daly on the main Strictly Come Dancing series.
