Huw Edwards
Huw was all set to join the Strictly cast for 2019 but as the BBC News lead presenter he had to turn down the opportunity due to the likelihood of an end of year election.
Now that the election is out of the way, but with coronavirus ruling the airwaves, it remains to be seen if Huw will be donning his dancing shoes come September.

Alan Carr
Rumours have abounded for years that Alan Carr may join the cast of Strictly and this year is no different.
In 2018 Alan Carr confirmed on Loose Women that he was being poached to join the show: "They cornered me and asked me to do it," adding, "I will do it but next year I’ve got a busy year."
The comedian then appeared on the Graham Norton show earlier this year on February 14 and said: "They ask me to do it every year, and I say, 'No' because it's too much like hard work."
Fingers crossed that 2020 is the year Strictly bosses finally pursuade him!
