Alan Carr Strictly hosting rumours have surfaced following the announcement that Claudia Winkleman and Tess Daly will step down. Fans of the show immediately began speculating about potential replacements.
After his Celebrity Traitors win earlier this month, Alan Carr became one of the most talked-about names. Many have suggested he could bring humour and energy to the iconic BBC ballroom.
Speaking to the Radio Times ahead of his ITV sitcom Changing Ends returning on 23 November, Alan addressed the speculation. He said his name being “in the hat” is an honour, but he has not discussed the role with the BBC.
Alan admitted that hosting Strictly could be nerve-racking. He joked about his Celebrity Traitors experience, saying his nerves got the better of him in front of cameras. “Imagine me live on a Saturday night coming down those stairs,” he said. “People would slip in a pool of my sweat while doing the fandango. It’s lovely to be thought of, but it’s probably a bit too nerve-racking.”
Fans and fellow celebrities quickly voiced support for Alan Carr Strictly hosting. Current Strictly contestant Lewis Cope said the comedian would be “brilliant.” He added that Alan is funny, relatable, and “really current,” predicting he would be hilarious with the judges.
Professional dancer Katya Jones agreed that Alan would be entertaining, but she also suggested former Strictly pro Janette Manrara as a strong candidate. She praised Manrara for her dancing knowledge and her understanding of the contestants’ experiences, saying she would bring “real heart” to the role.
Alan Carr Strictly hosting rumours continue to dominate conversations online. Many fans are excited at the thought of his energetic, comedic style on live Saturday night television.
Although Alan has not confirmed any talks with the BBC, the speculation demonstrates his growing influence in UK entertainment. Meanwhile, viewers will watch closely as the Strictly team begins the search for new hosts.
Regardless of the outcome, Alan Carr Strictly hosting rumours show the comedian’s popularity and potential to take on major live TV roles in the UK.
