Strictly judge Anton du Beke fires back at ‘outrageous’ boos on show | Celebrity News | Showbiz & TV

Anton became a permanent member of the show’s judging panel back in 2021, after first joining the show as a dancer in 2004.

During his first year as a judge, his close pal Giovanni Pernice – who had already reached the final several times previously – made it to the top spot and clinched the trophy, along with the show’s first-ever deaf contestant, Rose Ayling-Ellis.

Anton and Giovanni have since gone on to achieve TV success together, in a three-part series for the BBC entitled Adventures In Sicily.

The programme will see the pair explore Mount Etna, check out the Italian island’s first-class cuisine, enjoy the sweltering sunshine and, of course, make time for a dance.
