BBC Strictly Come Dancing Star Dealt Blow as Major Rule Change Comes Into Force - Liverpool Echo

This season introduces online-only voting and rotating judge power, with 15 celebrities competing to avoid Sunday’s first elimination, BBC reports.

  • Strictly Come Dancing 2025 returns with its week two live show airing tonight, October 4, at 6:20pm on BBC One and iPlayer.
  • This season introduced a major rule change where the deciding vote after a dance-off rotates weekly among four judges instead of being held by Shirley Ballas alone.
  • Fifteen celebrities and their professional partners compete weekly, with the first elimination set for this weekend and viewers required to vote exclusively online via a BBC account.
  • Early betting odds list Ross King as the favorite for first elimination at 8/11, with Karen Carney and Carlos Gu topping week one with a score of 31 for their Jive performance.
  • The shift to online-only voting reflects broader changes as BT ends phone voting in 2025, and the results show will air tomorrow, October 5, at 7:15pm on BBC One.
