Strictly Come Dancing 2025 Launches Amid Injuries and Star Quality Concerns

News summary

The 23rd series of Strictly Come Dancing has kicked off with a diverse lineup of celebrities including actors, athletes, and social media stars, but it has faced significant challenges early on. Notably, Dani Dyer had to withdraw due to an injury, leading to Amber Davies joining the competition as her replacement. The show has also been marked by a chaotic group dance in the opening, which one critic described as a needed but confusing climax amid a lack of star quality and a cautious atmosphere to avoid scandals. Nevertheless, some contestants, like band leader Dave Arch and Thomas Skinner, have been highlighted as potential front-runners for the glitterball trophy. Off-stage, the show is grappling with controversies, including the withdrawal of DJ Kristian Nairn for medical reasons, professional dancer Nancy Xu's disappointment over not being paired with a celebrity, and sensational personal scandals involving Tom Skinner. Despite these issues, the show continues to draw interest with its mix of performances and drama.
