Strictly Come Dancing viewers have been left frustrated on Saturday as producers failed to mix up the trio presenting format following last week’s criticism. The new hosts – Emma Willis, Josh Widdicombe and Johannes Radebe – were no doubt feeling the pressure as they opened the show for week two, after the first live show’s presenting format was panned by viewers – with Josh branded a ‘spare part’.However, instead of taking heed of fan comments, show bosses instead ploughed ahead with the original plan, leaving Josh and Emma presenting on the floor while Johannes was up in the ‘Clauditorium’.Taking to X, viewers called out show bosses for ‘ignoring the public’ as they questioned why they hadn’t ‘listened’ to fan concerns. They penned: ‘So they ignored the public and kept Josh downstairs doing his work experience, will Jojo talk while they walk up the stairs?”They’ve not changed the presenting situation then’ Strictly Come Dancing viewers have been left frustrated on Saturday as producers failed to mix up the trio presenting format following last week’s criticism Emma Willis, Josh Widdicombe and Johannes Radebe – were no doubt feeling the pressure as the first live show’s presenting format was panned by viewers – with Josh branded a ‘spare part”Josh is downstairs. They haven’t listened’. ‘When we said Josh felt like a spare part downstairs, we didn’t mean we wanted him to do more and Emma less.”I don’t understand why they’re not varying the presenting. Why is Johannes in the Clauditorium again? I’d have thought they would have swapped over and had Josh Widdicombe there this week after presenting on the floor last week.”I really wish they had put JoJo and Josh together upstairs.”Really surprised they haven’t switched and tried Josh in the upstairs role after the feedback from last week.’ However, in a positive note for the new hosts, former pro Johannes was widely praised by fans for vastly improving on his presenting skills this week.Last week, viewers noted the dancer began talking when the couple’s were making their way up the stairs amid the appluase, meaning fans were unable to hear what was being said.But this time, the popular star has taken note of the feedback and waited before being his segment – and viewers were very impressed. It comes after the first live show last week brought in fewer viewers than the pre-recorded launch episode for the first time in seven years. Viewers complained about the new presenters missing cues and fluffing lines and asked the big question – why did the BBC hire three to do a two-man job? A week on from the pre-recorded launch, fans and critics were hoping Emma Willis, Josh Widdicombe and Johannes Radebe would have had some time to finesse their roles.During the launch, the three rotated positions in the Elstree studio, seemingly trying Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman’s jobs for size. But with three vying for two roles, viewers soon singled out the ‘spare part’, homing in on Josh.For the first live show Emma, the most experienced presenter of the three, took over Tess’s position down on the dancefloor, looking out for the nervous contestants during the judges’ critique. Johannes meanwhile was up in the ‘Clauditorium’, debriefing with his fellow pros and their partners. That left Josh, who was placed by Emma’s side adding the punchlines to her commentary, but the decision to split Tess’s role didn’t go down well with viewers who remarked that the comedian looked like a ‘spare part’ next to seasoned professional Emma. Taking to X, viewers called out show bosses for ‘ignoring the public’ as they questioned why they hadn’t ‘listened’ to fan concernsJosh’s inexperience, and nerves, were evident when he awkwardly missed his cue during a link.Critics and viewers have argued though that ‘Josh is really not the problem,’ criticising BBC bosses for hiring three hosts and misassigning their roles.Josh, well versed in comedy live telly thanks to his 14 years on Channel 4’s The Last Leg, should have been given Claudia’s role, argued many fans, pointing out that his gag-filled commentary works best as a soloist. The BBC failed to pull in as many viewers as they perhaps would have wanted as 4.8 million tuned in on Saturday – down substantially on last year’s 6.2 million for the first live show.There will however of course be some watching in the coming days on catch up which will boost that number.The show also faced some stiff competition as England were playing Spain in the UEFA Nations League at Wembley. The match was broadcast on ITV1 and brought in three million live viewers.It is the first time since 2019 that the first live show has rated lower than the pre-recorded launch show.Later in the week, Emma responded to Strictly criticism with a cryptic post.Taking to Instagram on Tuesday, Emma shared a series of behind-the-scenes snaps from the show as she brushed off any critique with an inspiring quote about breaking free from judgment. It read: ‘You’ll get judged either way, so may as well pick the fun option.’
