'Strictly' Sunday show to return?

Strictly Come Dancing may be split up with a Saturday and Sunday night show this year, say reports.


According to The Sun, BBC bosses want the programme to return to the format that was used in 2008 to avoid overly long Saturday shows.

However, bosses apparently want the Sunday instalment to be filmed live, which may cause problems due to financial implications.

"We really want to take Strictly back to a Sunday night, but we would have to do it live and that takes more money, which is pretty tight at the moment," said a source.

Last year's Strictly Come Dancing began with one single show, which on one occasion aired for two and a half hours, but returned to a two show format towards the end of the run.
