Although the latest series of Strictly Come Dancing may have only been on our screens for a matter of weeks, the much loved BBC dance show appears to have already bagged itself a contestant for next year\u2019s 2024 edition! <\/p>\n

The news was revealed during Thursday\u2019s edition of Talk Today, TalkTV \u2019s flagship morning programme, when show host Jeremy Kyle insisted he would be \u2018joining\u2019 the lineup next year. <\/p>\n

Jeremy made the surprise admission as he and co-host Nicola Thorp interviewed Strictly judge Shirley Ballas, with the 58 year old star telling viewers that if the price was right, he would definitely be strutting his stuff on the ballroom floor. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Jeremy said: \u201dI\u2019ll do it if they offer me enough money. There, I\u2019ve said it.<\/p>\n

"I\u2019m quite into it now. I\u2019m going to do it. Can you imagine JK on Strictly? I\u2019d be crap!\u201d<\/p>\n

Following Jeremy\u2019s promise, Shirley Ballas couldn\u2019t have appeared more thrilled, as the pro dancer cheered on his participation in the show, with a cheeky smile – even as Jeremy confessed his lack of dance experience might prove to be an obstacle.<\/p>\n

Shirley said: \u201cI\u2019m not going to give you an opinion Jeremy but what I will predict is that one day you're going to put your cha-cha shoes on and do it, that\u2019s what I\u2019m going to predict."<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Jeremy then replied: \u201cThere\u2019s no chance that Jeremy Kyle can even get those cha-cha shoes on\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

Undeterred by his reluctance, Shirley then encouraged: \u201cI want to see a wiggle and a jiggle\u2026 You have a beautiful shoulder line as a ballroom dancer and beautiful posture so I think it could be quite nice.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, despite Shirley\u2019s keen interest in seeing Jeremy take to the dance floor, it appears his own pregnant wife Vicky Burton, was less than thrilled by the idea, as she sent a text message to her husband live on air, which Jeremy promptly read out.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

"Please don\u2019t do Strictly you idiot, you\u2019ll look like an idiot,\u201d it read.<\/p>\n

This immediately caused all three stars in the studio to burst out laughing, before Jeremy confirmed he would indeed take part in the dancing contest.<\/p>\n

Despite Jeremy\u2019s comments however, no stars have yet been announced by the BBC to take part in the iconic dance show, which is currently enjoying its 21st series.<\/p>\n

Strictly Come Dancing airs Saturday 21 October at 6:35pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer<\/b><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
