Anton Du Beke has revealed which Strictly Come Dancing Judge Sir Bruce Forsyth refused to stand next to – and why.
Appearing on This Morning on Monday (15 June), Du Beke revealed that Sir Bruce, who died in 2017, requested a huge shakeup to the judges’ panel when the show first began.
“A lot of people won’t know this, but on the very first series of Strictly Come Dancing, he [Craig] was up the end where I sit. He was up Brucie’s end. Brucie went, ‘You have to get him away from me’ and they moved him down the other end.”
Craig Revel Horwood then explained that he was switched as Sir Bruce did not want critiques to end on a negative note.
“So I was shunted,” he revealed.
