Strictly Come Dancing producers are reportedly in talks with a huge British dancer and choreographer to join next season’s professional line up.
Professional dancer Luke Miller, who has been performing since he was five, has made several appearances as a guest dancer on the show in the last few years.
But he is now believed to be in talks to join the BBC pro dancing team as a permanent member, according to The Sun.
An insider told the publication: ‘Luke has so much experience and is already loved by everyone so he seems like a very obvious fit.
‘There have been some very big clues recently that haven’t gone unnoticed. Everyone thinks it’s just a matter of time before Luke is announced.’
The award-winning dancer has joined the team for Strictly experience weekends, which will take place in Warner Hotels across the UK.

Further stage credits include being a dancer in Backlash Ballroom 2017/2018, UK Pantomime Jack and the Beanstalk 2018 and joined Burn The Floor onboard Norwegian Cruise lines in 2019.
In recent years, the Strictly pro lineup has seen Italian dancers Graziano Di Prima and Giovanni be axed following complaints about their conduct in the training room.
Giovanni faced bullying accusations from former celebrity partner Amanda Abbington while Graziano ‘kicked’ ex-Love Island star Zara McDermott during rehearsals.
There were also reports of a ‘mass cull’ with producers keen to revamp the Strictly pro cast.
Sarah James, Executive Producer, BBC Studios said : ‘The excitement is already building ahead of the new series and in addition to welcoming back our fantastic returning Pros, we are looking forward to welcoming two brand new Professional Dancers to the line up who will help bring another unforgettable series of dazzling dance and loads more besides to viewers later in 2025.’
As well as the pros taking part in the competition itself, all of them will be taking to the floor each week in group routines.
