Alesha Dixon is to leave BBC One's hit programme Strictly Come Dancing to join ITV1 talent show Britain's Got Talent.



Dixon announced she will join Simon Cowell's team for the programme's sixth series later this year.

The 33-year-old will appear alongside David Walliams and Amanda Holden on the Britain's Got Talent judging panel.

Dixon replaced Arlene Phillips on Strictly three years ago.

A BBC spokesperson said it wished Dixon well, adding that they would announce a new member of the Strictly judging panel in late spring.
