Press Release: Strictly Come Dancing 2025 Unveils Exciting Cast
As the countdown to Strictly Come Dancing 2025 begins, the BBC has started announcing the dazzling lineup of celebrities set to grace the dance floor this season. Among the confirmed contestants are British YouTuber George Clarke, EastEnders actress Balvinder Sopal, Love Island winner Dani Dyer, and football star Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, each bringing unique backgrounds and enthusiasm to the show.
George Clarke, known for his humorous TikTok and YouTube content, expressed his excitement about joining the show, admitting to uncertainty about his dancing skills. “I feel like a lot of people will be saying… ‘Who?’” he remarked upon his announcement.
Balvinder Sopal, who portrays matriarch Suki Kaur Panesar on EastEnders, described her participation as a dream come true, stating, “Being a part of Strictly is the stuff that dreams are made of.” She mentioned her previous experience in ballroom and Latin dance as a positive aspect of her journey.
Dani Dyer, the daughter of actor Danny Dyer, shared her excitement on The One Show, calling her casting the “second most amazing thing” she’s done this year. She revealed her apprehension about the live performances, indicating a mix of excitement and nerves.
Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, a Dutch football legend, aims to connect with his daughters through the show. He candidly noted that dancing in front of a live audience felt more daunting than playing football in stadiums.
Also set to compete is Harry Aikines-Aryeetey, previously known as Nitro from Gladiators, who excitedly stated, “I’m ready to give it all I’ve got.”
With more contestants yet to be announced, Strictly Come Dancing promises an exhilarating season as it kicks off on BBC One this September.
