BBC Strictly Come Dancing's Pete Wicks' TV return after show exit confirmed

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Pete Wicks will quickly be returning to the small screen after his Strictly Come Dancing journey comes to an end. The reality star and podcast host is currently competing in the BBC One dance contest alongside professional dancer Jowita Przystal.

Pete recently took par in the quarter-final of the BBC One dance contest over the weekend, with the latest live show on Saturday night (November 30) also marking Strictly's Musicals Week, the last special of the 2024 series ahead of the grand final in just a couple of weeks time.

Pete and Jowita scored 26 out of a possible 40 for their waltz to Somewhere from West Side Story, with Pete heard saying "I’m so sorry" to his dance partner after finishing the routine, in which they portrayed the musical's leading characters Tony and Maria.

While Pete's Strictly journey may come to an end this weekend, or following the grand final on Saturday, December 14, he will be back on screens soon after as it was previously revealed he'd landed a show all about rescue dogs.
