Bruce Forsyth has pulled out of Saturday's Strictly Come Dancing "on doctor's orders" because he has flu, the BBC has announced.

Co-presenter Tess Daly will be taking on the 81-year-old's hosting role while her backstage duties will be handled by Claudia Winkleman.

Winkleman presents spin-off show It Takes Two on BBC Two.

It is the first time Forsyth has missed a show since Strictly Come Dancing began on BBC One in 2004.

"Unfortunately, due to a bout of the flu and on doctor's orders, Bruce will be unable to host Strictly Come Dancing this Saturday.

"However, Tess Daly will be stepping into his presenting shoes," a spokesman said.

Aaaaaaaaah - poor Brucie - wish I had half his energy :shock: he is marvellous @ 81 yrs. old. Have just started reading his autobiography - seems pretty interesting so far.

Get well soon Brucie :)
