The contestants of Strictly Come Dancing have been warned they will be given the boot if they are caught snogging in the upcoming series. For months, the 2020 series of the long-running BBC dance competition has been putting plans in place to allow the show to safely return amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

But even the best-laid plans often go awry, and already Strictly is facing a Covid crisis – with a little over two weeks before the 18th series is due to kick off. Singer and former CBBC presenter HRVY – real name Harvey Cantrell, 21 – sparked an alert when he tested positive for the Covid-19 virus this week.
