Strictly Come Dancing judge Anton Du Beke is a bonafide show original, having starred on it as a pro dancer since its conception in 2004.The 57 year old is the only professional dancer to appear in every Strictly series so far - before moving to the judging panel in 2021, for its 19th season.

But life for Anton wasn't always quite so glamorous, as he recalled once working at a bakers at the age of 21, whilst dancing on the evenings and doing events.

Here's what Anton had to say as Strictly struts its way back to our television screens... Strictly is back for its 21st series!

How does it feel to return to the judging panel for such a monumental series? I tell you what, I am naturally, brilliantly excited about the whole thing, I can't wait.
