In the world of entertainment, there's always something exciting happening and it seems like Strictly Come Dancing is no exception. With the show just around the corner, fans can't wait to see their favorite celebrities hit the ballroom floor. However, it seems like there was almost a major slip-up this morning on BBC Breakfast.
Olympian Sam Quek, one of the 15 celebrities on this year's line-up, was in the hot seat and almost revealed a huge spoiler. As all contestants have been sworn to secrecy about their professional partners, Sam almost let it slip when she confirmed that she had been paired with someone. Luckily, presenter Naga Munchetty saved the day by asking if her partner was watching, to which Sam replied, "I hope so" before covering her mouth in shock.
But the excitement didn't end there. Viewers can now join Metro's Strictly community on WhatsApp to stay up to date with all the latest news and rumors from behind-the-scenes.

As for Sam, she exclaimed, "I was about to say his name!" But presenter Charlie Stayt quickly warned her to be careful, while Naga admitted it would have been funny if she had spilled the beans. However, the secrecy surrounding the pairings hasn't stopped fans from trying to figure out who will be dancing with whom. Some believe that comedian Chris McCausland has been partnered with Australian redhead Dianne Buswell, based on a coincidence on their YouTube feeds.
But it seems like the speculation will soon come to an end, as the first live show airs this Saturday. Along with Sam and Chris, other contestants include Love Islander Tasha Ghouri and Strictly veteran Aljaz Skorjanec, DIY SOS host Nick Knowles and Nadiya Bychkova, and Towie's Pete Wicks. And that's not all, as former footballer Paul Merson, 80s music icon Toyah Willcox, and Olympic swimmer Tom Dean will also be competing for the coveted Glitterball Trophy.
But before all of this, Sam had a successful career as a hockey player, winning a gold medal at the 2016 Rio Olympics and being recognized with an MBE for her contributions to the sport. She has also co-hosted the BBC's Tokyo Olympic Games breakfast program and the 2023 Eurovision Song Contest, as well as being a team captain on A Question of Sport and appearing on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!
With so much excitement and anticipation building up, fans can't wait for Strictly Come Dancing 2024 to begin on Saturday, September 14 at 7:20pm on BBC One and iPlayer.
