The Sun – Strictly SOS to DIY Nick
Despite all the controversy surrounding the BBC’s premier light entertainment show, The Sun says TV presenter Nick Knowles has signed up to take part in the next series. The 61-year-old BBC star is to take part after months of talks — as the dance show was left reeling from celebrities’ claims of abusive behaviour. The front page also reports Taylor Swift-mania will descend on the hallowed halls of London’s Victoria and Albert Museum when a free exhibition of her outfits opens on Saturday.
Daytime TV legend signs for Strictly Come Dancing after months of talks amid show scandal
DIY SOS presenter Nick Knowles has signed up for Strictly.
The 61-year-old BBC star is to take part after months of talks — as the dance show was left reeling from celebrities’ claims of abusive behaviour.
Nick put a clip of his footwork on Instagram in March last year — with one fan commenting: “I see Strictly Come Dancing on the horizon.”
It was understood that he had been in talks with the BBC for months and recently came to an agreement to join the show.
A source said: “Nick has always loved Strictly and he is so excited.
“He’s got a great personality, is incredibly driven and competitive and is up for giving anything a crack. He’s going on the show to entertain and to win. He’ll give it his best shot.”
Inside Taylor Swift’s record-breaking V&A museum exhibition with surprise costumes she donated
TAYLOR SWIFT mania will descend on the hallowed halls of London’s Victoria and Albert Museum when a free exhibition of her outfits opens on Saturday.
Taylor Swift: Songbook Trail will feature 13 stops showcasing costumes donated by the Look What You Made Me Do singer.
Running until September 8, the display ties in with the school holidays and comes as nearly 500,000 fans are expected in the capital next month for Taylor’s five gigs at Wembley on her Eras tour.
The choice of 13 installations in the hour-long museum trail, created by theatre designer Tom Piper and architect Alan Farlie, is a nod to 34-year-old Taylor’s favourite number.
