'Strictly Come Dancing': Dancer Brendan Cole Blasts 'Rude And Horrible' Show Bosses

'Strictly Bosses Are Rude And Horrible'

If Brendan Cole is hoping to return to this year's series of 'Strictly Come Dancing' then he might want to think before he speaks in future.

The professional dancer has blasted bosses at the BBC dance show for not letting the pros know if they're going to take part until the very last minute.

His outburst comes after the shock departures of James Jordan and Artem Chigvintsev who will not be taking to the floor when the new series of 'Strictly' returns in September.

The professional dancer took to Twitter to tell fans that they shouldn't believe everything they read after the BBC issued a statement confirming his exit.

Meanwhile, fellow dancer Artem – who joined the show in September 2010 – has decided to remain in the States to resolve his visa issues.

And it sounds like Brendan – who partnered Sophie Ellis bextor on last year's show - is preparing himself for the axe too.

“One day it will be me and I will be sad not to have Strictly in my life," he said. "It has been lovely to have been there from the start.”

In response to Brendan's comments, a BBC spokesperson said: "The professional dancers on Strictly are aware at the end of each series when they can expect discussions to begin regarding the next."
