BREAKING. Strictly Come Dancing returning to the SABC for a 6th season - but this time SABC3 - from 10 July at 20:00 for 10 episodes.

Strictly Come Dancing, the popular gloss floor format show which has seen several seasons on SABC2 is set to return on Wednesday 10 July at 20:00 - but this time the reality dancing show is waltzing over to sister channel SABC3.

In August last year TV with Thinus broke the news and reported that a new 6th season for Strictly Come Dancing is on the cards and that the format show will be moving to SABC3.

The show - a big tentpole local production - which was planned for the latter part of 2012, was then postponed to 2013 as I reported.

Now Strictly Come Dancing is back on as a winter showpiece with 10 episodes of two hours each which will see a new crop of South African celebs dance it out. The reality dancefloor caper is once again being produced by Rapid Blue.
