Les Dennis leaked Strictly Come Dancing news over a week ago – but gaffe went unnoticed

Les Dennis has revealed he accidentally announced his Strictly Come Dancing debut over a week ago as he’s finally confirmed for the line-up on the BBC show

Les Dennis accidentally announced his Strictly Come Dancing debut over a week ago.

The Coronation Street star was confirmed today as the fifteenth and final contestant taking to the dancefloor. He appeared live on Good Morning Britain today with Ben Shephard and Ranvir Singh to announce the exciting news. However, entertainment legend Les, 69, has admitted he actually accidentally leaked he would be on Strictly over a week ago when he tweeted a long playlist he had been meaning to send to bosses of the BBC show, which was titled ‘Strictly by Les Dennis’.

His gaffe luckily went unnoticed but was revealed on Good Morning Britain today when they shared a screenshot of the tweet he had sent out. He had linked to the playlist with 100 or so songs called Strictly by Les Dennis, and captioned it with the letter V, clearly meaning to paste it elsewhere.

Ranvir and Ben joked about the blunder in a hilarious chat on Good Morning Britain today, where Les revealed he had planned to slow down after his knee operation – but when the opportunity came along and he couldn’t pass on it. Speaking about starring on Strictly, Les revealed: “I’m thrilled to be doing this iconic wonderful show as I approach my 70th birthday! In my career I’ve always gone for challenges outside my comfort zone and this is the ultimate one! Can’t wait.”
