Strictly Come Dancing final, this year's contestants could be instantly out of the competition as Omicron variant has introduced a new rule change.

According to reports, bosses have issued that with the final drawing closer, anyone testing positive will be automatically disqualified from the competition.

Up until the new rule change, celebrity contestants and their dance partners were given a grace period if they were to test positive for Covid-19, as pairs were allowed to have a week recovery if they contracted the virus.

However, this will no longer be the case for the remainder of the competition as the rule change will mean anyone testing positive for Covid will be out of the competition.AJ Odudu and Kai Widdrington, John Whaite and.
