This was announced on Facebook and Twitter last night but for those who missed it The Strictly Spoiler has just launched on Instagram adding a 3rd social network to its profile. The Strictly Spoiler can now be found on the following official social networking profiles

The official Twitter profile for The Strictly Spoiler is my own personal twitter account @davejthorp. Beware of less reliable imitations operating under similar names to this site!

To celebrate the launch of the Instagram profile there is a competition running on there to win a £10 Amazon UK voucher this weekend so be sure to check that out and get involved with that.

A few people on Facebook/Twitter expressed concerns that I’d be abandoning those platforms having launched on Instagram. Instagram will be operated alongside the existing social media platforms and there will be zero change for those of you on Facebook or Twitter as content will continue on those platforms so please don’t worry. I’m just giving myself more work to do during the live shows so yay for me!

We’re a matter of weeks away from the contestant reveals which usually kick off late July/early August and I’ll be bringing the latest news as it comes in right here at the home of The Strictly Spoiler as well as on the social networks. Also keep posted as the largest competition I’ve run will be kicking off and Instagram will be involved just like Facebook/Twitter. There will be a massive £750 Amazon Voucher up for grabs this year but only the brave will take home the big prize. Last year Debbie on Twitter turned down £20 to win £500 and it could be you who has to make that choice when the 2022 series kicks off proper. Full details coming in the next few weeks!

We’re coming into season and last series operating this site cost me in excess of £3000 in hosting costs. If you are able to please consider helping me out with these costs by making a one time donation using THIS LINK (make sure to click send and not request) or the button below. Please only do so if you can afford to do so, especially in the current cost of living crisis and there is no obligation on anyone to help me out this way.

Or for the truly impatient amongst you why not join the crew on Patreon. For less than the price of a coffee a month you gain access to the spoiler in an ad free form and also will gain access to the results of the exit poll providing the earliest indication as to how the dance off has gone each week minutes after The BBC vote closes and hours before the spoiler or any other spoiler source.

No energy switches for the time being as the general advice for most during the energy crisis is to stay put. Instead why not earn cash back towards your mobile phone bill on your every day shopping. Sign up to Airtime Rewards using promo code 6T7W9L6X, link your credit/debit card and any time you shop at participating retailers you will automatically earn cash back which can be credited towards your mobile phone bill on most major UK networks

There’s no fooling you guys. Yes of course this was an April Fool’s Joke. Though at least The BBC now know where to start the bidding!

The Strictly Spoiler has some massive news to announce and it just can’t wait.

I can reveal that in a £26,000,000 deal the BBC have purchased strictlyspoiler.com and all associated web domains and social media accounts which in the next few days will be transferred to BBC control.

Dave Thorp, owner of The Strictly Spoiler had this to say about the deal: “Here we are in April 2022 and after the last couple of years which have been hard for us all I’m no fool and the BBC’s offer was too good to be true so I bit their hands off”

Head of purchasing at the BBC, April Foule, had this to say “£26,000,000 may seem a lot to spend on purchasing these web domains but it’s a small price to pay for finally silencing the spoiler. Plus we’ve managed to do this at no extra cost to the license fee payer as Gary Lineker has agreed to a 2% pay cut”

Sarah James, executive producer at Strictly, added: “Finally we will be in a position to keep the results secret for a day without having to do the far easier and less costly thing of making the results show live. No more will people be able to learn the results a full day in advance. Except from the Facebook Groups, the discussion forums, other websites and Gary down the pub who is sleeping with one of the professional dancers. Perhaps this wasn’t such a good idea after all!”

What do you think of the news? As always you can let me know in the comments or over on Facebook/Twitter
