Craig Revel Horwood has revealed who will be on this year's Strictly Come Dancing judging panel.

During an interview, the famous judge confirmed that he'd be returning to the show along with the previous panel members too.

In a seemingly forgetful moment, Craig said, "Yes, same judges. Shirley is back with us, which will be great."

Bruno and Craig

"Bruno is back and being more Italian than ever. And of course the fabulous Darcey Bussell."

It must have been all the excitement that made Craig spill the beans, as he added, "I think it is a great team and it was really good last year, I can't wait to get back into it."

However a spokesperson for the show refused to confirm or deny Craig's claims, telling The Express, "The full judges line-up will be announced in due course."

While all the judges might be coming back, this year sees the first ever year of Strictly without professional dancer Brendan Cole.

Brendan famously fell out with Shirley Ballas when he appeared on It Takes Two and was quizzed about whether he was nervous to impress her by host Zoe Ball.

Speaking on John Bishop: In Conversation With..., he recalled the incident, saying, "I went, 'I'd imagine she's more likely to be wanting to impress us, I've been on the show 15 years, she's just showed up.'

"Of course Shirley has seen it and gone 'you little s**t'. I knew the error of my ways as soon as I came off air.

"I sent her a message saying, 'Didn't mean any offence, just making good telly.' I didn't get a reply."

OUCH.
