Dr Karen Wood, associate professor at the Centre for Dance Research at Coventry University, agrees and says the trio “are now really starting to feel a bit more settled”.
“I think JoJo has transitioned beautifully from professional dancer to host, and obviously he comes with all his fabulousness,” she says.
“He’s able to talk about the technical details as well as be very supportive to the professional dancers and the celebrities. And his outfits are just marvellous. So I think he suits that role very well.
“Likewise, Emma is holding her own when she’s with Josh and when she’s not. She’s an experienced presenter. You can you can tell.
“And Josh is bringing the humour. I know it’s come with some criticism. But last week was the first week that I felt, oh, these two are actually funny.”
She concludes: “It’s really feeling like they’re finding their stride and their rhythm with it. And I think that’s going to develop more and more – very much as the celebrities do.”
Just as the show’s celebrity contestants improve week by week, the same may be true of the hosts – except viewers can’t vote them off if they don’t like them.
The next episode of Strictly Come Dancing airs on One at 18:30 BST on Saturday.
