Chris McCausland and Dianne Buswell make huge announcement after skipping Strictly tour

The pair are releasing a new project this Thursday 24 January. Strictly 2024 winners Chris McCausland and Dianne Buswell have made a very exciting announcement. The comedian, 47, and pro dancer, 35, lifted the Glitterball Trophy on the BBC One show last month, but were sadly forced to miss out on the Strictly live tour due to scheduling clashes.
McCausland and Buswell were a hugely popular winning duo – McCausland is the first blind person to ever have competed on the show, and Buswell received widespread praise for how she adapted training for her partner and helped him to shine on the dancefloor.
The two stars have now announced that they are recording a podcast together. They shared the news on their respective Instagram grids, both posting a video of them having a laugh together and writing: “Want more of this nonsense? Chris and Dianne are going to be hooking up for a weekly publicly available catch up, otherwise known as a PODCAST.
“First episode out in just four days and counting. If you’ve got any questions for us, put them here and we will try to get around to answering some on the pod. See you all on Thursday [24 January]. We can’t wait!”. Teasing details of their debut episode, McCausland added: “And of course we will have to start with a recap of that final won’t we. Can’t wait partner!”.
Details of the title of the podcast and where to find it are expected to be revealed soon. McCausland is unable to participate in the Strictly tour, which kicked off in Birmingham last week, because he is currently touring his own comedy show, Yonks!, in which he jokes: “Twenty one years of hard graft on the comedy scene, to now be best known for dancing.”.
