Strictly Come Dancing<\/a> fans are raging at the news that Dianne Buswell<\/a> and Chris McCausland<\/a>\u2019s podcast<\/a> might have to come to a sudden halt.<\/p>\n

Comedian Chris, 48, made history as the show\u2019s first-ever blind contestant before dancing his way to the glitterball trophy with pro Dianne \u2013 and scoring a Bafta TV award for most memorable moment along the way.<\/p>\n

The pair won over the nation\u2019s hearts and launched a podcast, Winning Isn\u2019t Everything, in which they have a \u2018chaotic\u2019 weekly catch-up and discuss all things \u2018wins, fails, life and nonsense\u2019.<\/p>\n

As the synopsis continues: \u2018Dianne wants to understand the world a bit more, Chris just wants to moan about it. They might even answer some listener questions if they can get around to it.\u2019<\/p>\n

Since their veritable Strictly success, both have been busy with Dianne prepping for the new season starting imminently (in which she\u2019ll make history as the first ever pregnant star<\/a>) and Chris on tour with his popular show, Yonks.<\/p>\n

Under a video Chris shared to social media<\/a>, one X user BFC_Zoe wrote: \u2018Chris!! Your podcast can\u2019t be ending, I spend all week wishing it was Thursday. We were robbed with a shorter one too this week.\u2019<\/p>\n

I’m afraid it’s a possibility. At the minute it doesn’t look like Dianne will be allowed to do it through Strictly. https:\/\/t.co\/SqkI2OF2T7<\/a><\/p>\n

To which he replied: \u2018I\u2019m afraid it\u2019s a possibility. At the minute it doesn\u2019t look like Dianne will be allowed to do it through Strictly.\u2019<\/p>\n

Fans were devastated to hear the news with one user Susan Smith, writing: \u2018That is ridiculous. How can the BBC<\/a> stop Dianne working on the podcast but allow other pros and judges to do other work during the series.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018Nooooo Thursdays won\u2019t be the same without you two ! Maybe she will be able to when BBC realise how popular it is,\u2019 Sally Etcell shared.<\/p>\n

\u2018Very sad and disappointed if that\u2019s the case. I look forward to listening every Thursday and never missed an episode. The connection with you and Dianne shows on the podcast and I will really miss it, entertaining, funny and provides some comfort and relief from a crazy world,\u2019 HelenM added.<\/p>\n

\u2018Nooooooo! I look forward to them every week!!\u2019 Elen Hebden echoed.<\/p>\n

Although there\u2019s no word on whether the podcast will go ahead, we will be seeing a Chris and Dianne reunion on the dance floor.<\/a><\/p>\n

The BBC has confirmed the dancing duo will perform their award-winning waltz, You\u2019ll Never Walk Alone, during the launch show on Saturday night.<\/p>\n

When accepting the Bafta for the powerful dance which brought viewers to tears, Dianne said: \u2018In one minute and 30 seconds of a dance, I feel like this told such a story. A story of hope, determination, resilience, and vulnerability, all in that one minute 30.\u2019<\/p>\n

The professional dancer \u2013 who is expecting her first child with Joe Sugg in 2026 \u2013 has opened up about how her pregnancy will affect her prep this season<\/a> on the Winning Isn\u2019t Everything podcast.<\/p>\n

\u2018I\u2019m still doing everything I did before. Obviously with lifts there\u2019s going to be a bit more caution. But my doctor has said everything is normal.<\/p>\n

\u2018He said, basically, if you\u2019ve done it before, in terms of being a dancer and you\u2019ve done this, done that, then crack on and keep doing what you\u2019re doing,\u2019 she said.<\/p>\n
