Strictly Come Dancing‘s four new professionals have appeared to settle into their new roles on the show as they recorded the opening dance routine.

Kai Widdrington, Nikita Kuzmin, Cameron Lombard, and Jowita Przystal have been pictured joining the slew of dazzling professionals as they rehearsed a sultry number. The newbies are set to appear on our screens in September 2021 – though it’s not yet clear if they will be partnered with celebrities this year.
