Summary
- Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman to quit Strictly Come Dancing after this year
- Former pro James Jordan calls for 50% of judges and dancers to be replaced
- Jordan criticizes judges for being "too woke" and losing their "harshness"

In a surprising turn of events, the popular BBC dance competition Strictly Come Dancing is set to undergo a major transformation. According to reports, beloved hosts Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman have announced that they will be leaving the show following this year's series.
This news has sparked a call for a complete overhaul of the show from former Strictly professional James Jordan. The 47-year-old British dancer, who appeared on the show between 2006 and 2013, has urged the BBC to make drastic changes, including axing 50% of the judges and professional dancers.
Jordan has been highly critical of the show's current direction, claiming that it has become "too woke" and that the judging panel has lost its "harshness." He singled out long-standing judge Craig Revel Horwood, stating that he feels the judge has "lost his harshness" and that the show now ends "with a positive" rather than honest criticism.
