The BBC has revealed there are three new additions to the Strictly Come Dancing professionals team this year.

First up is Italian Latin Champion Graziano Di Prima, who said of joining the show: "This is my dream come true! I still can't believe I will be one of the professional dancers on Strictly Come Dancing. I can't wait to give all of myself on the dance floor!"

Next up is Johannes Radebe, a two-time Professional South African Latin Champion who has been a professional on Strictly Come Dancing South Africa. He described joining UK Strictly as one of his "greatest achievements".

Also on the show this year will be Luba Mushtuk, a four-time winner of the Italian Dance Championship and Italian Open Latin Show Dance champion.

"Words cannot express how thrilled I am to do what I love most on the greatest show on earth," she said. "I am super excited and so thankful for this priceless opportunity. I can't wait to get started as a professional dancer on Strictly... bring on the sparkle!"

On top of that, regular faces AJ Pritchard, Aljaz Skorjanec, Amy Dowden, Anton Du Beke, Dianne Buswell, Giovanni Pernice, Gorka Marquez, Janette Manrara, Karen Clifton, Katya Jones, Kevin Clifton, Nadiya Bychkova, Neil Jones, Oti Mabuse and Pasha Kovalev will all return, completing an 18-strong line-up.

Unfortunately, long-term Strictly pro Brendan Cole won't be returning for the 2018 series while Chloe Hewitt – who joined in 2016 – also leaves the show.

Strictly Come Dancing is due to return later this year on BBC One.
