Craig Revel Horwood has been a staple on Strictly Come Dancing since he joined the judging panel in 2004.
Known for his sharp critiques, Craig, 59, often sparks debate with his views on the celebrities' routines each week, alongside fellow judges Shirley Ballas, Motsi Mabuse, and Anton Du Beke.
Despite rumours that he might be leaving the show, Craig sensationally quashed the speculation, saying, "It's the best job I've ever had on a Saturday".
The comment comes amid recent controversy surrounding the BBC dance show, following the departures of dancers Giovanni Pernice and Graziano Di Prima after claims of abusive behaviour.

On his role, Craig recently told The Sun: "It's the best job I've ever had on a Saturday - are you joking?"
Revealing what he loves most about the show, the choreographer added: "The dance, and I love the way it waves the flag for dancing.
"I love the fact that so many people have taken up dance because of it, and that it's won the hearts and minds of not only this nation, but about 61 countries worldwide. I mean, what not to love?"
Craig has also made a name for himself on the West End, starring in various productions, including playing the Wicked Stepmother in a pantomime production of Cinderella.
However, speculation about a busy schedule prompting him to leave his role on the show has been stirred by the star's recent cryptic message: "I might hang up my dancing shoes just on the stage and go towards direction but that's about it."
The TV star also recently opened up about his career admitting "his dancing days are over" as he reflects on turning 60.
He told The Mirror: "I have a little bit of trepidation about turning 60 however," he admitted, with a wry smile. "I know it's just a number, but 60 sounds old. It's only 10 years to 70 then and that does seem like pension time, doesn't it? But I've no plans to slow down.
"You can't keep dancing forever; it's strenuous. And I've had my toes done, I've had my hips replaced, I've had everything done, so my dance days are over."
