Comedian and actor Miranda Hart has been linked to a potential role on BBC's Strictly Come Dancing. Reports suggest she is in discussions with the broadcaster, following ongoing speculation about the future of current co-host Claudia Winkleman.
Claudia Winkleman, who has co-hosted the main show since 2014 and its companion show 'It Takes Two' for many years, is rumored to be considering her options. In March 2024, it was reported she was in talks for a lucrative deal with a streaming service, which could impact her BBC commitments. The BBC has not officially commented on any presenter changes for the upcoming series.
Miranda Hart, known for her self-titled BBC sitcom, has a long-standing relationship with the broadcaster. Industry sources cited in recent tabloid reports describe her as a strong contender who would be a 'massive coup' for the show. However, neither Hart nor the BBC has confirmed these talks.
Strictly Come Dancing remains one of the BBC's most popular entertainment programs. Any significant change to its presenting lineup generates considerable public and media interest. Official announcements regarding the 2026 series are expected later in the year.
