Brendan Cole claims Strictly stars receive Blackpool bonus

Brendan Cole claims ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ contestants who make it to Blackpool receive a "small bonus" payment.
The 42-year-old dancer says the pros have an added incentive to make it to the special week – which gives the celebrities a chance to enjoy dancing at Blackpool Tower Ballroom – because it gives them an added extra in their pay packet.
Writing in a column for HELLO! magazine, he said: "Blackpool week is always a milestone for the couples.
"It’s an incredible show to be a part of with a big crowd, a lot of fuss and it’s also a chance for a jolly up north.
"There’s also a little added incentive for the celebs of a small bonus in their pay packet."
The star – who did not return to the current season of ‘Strictly’ after dancing on the show for 15 seasons – will be sad to miss his usual trip to Blackpool in some ways, but also acknowledged that he won’t miss the "countless rehearsals".
He added: "I for one will slightly miss being there with everyone but won’t miss the countless rehearsals, including the big one happening as I write this piece."
While it is not known what the celebrities are paid for taking part in ‘Strictly’, it is thought the stars get more money depending on how far they get in the series.
Blackpool week will take place on Saturday 17th and Sunday 18th November this year – four weeks before the final.
