Strictly Come Dancing pros are set to isolate in a hotel together for two weeks in order to shoot upcoming group performances.
It’s believed that the performances will be filmed in a smaller studio and will be spread out over the series which will kick off on screens, in September.
Reports suggest that the professional dancers have been told by bosses to start rehearsing their routines at home before they go into isolation next month.
Speaking to The Sun an insider claimed that the pre-recorded performances will ensure that the show will still have their impressive productions despite a huge shakeup in the production crew numbers.
