BOSSES behind this year’s Strictly Come Dancing have set their eyes on attracting talent like Miranda Hart for next year, and are using their contestants this year to get them on board.
Comedy actress Sarah Hadland is taking part in this year’s series, and proving one to watch, but BBC bosses are keen to entice her best friend Miranda Hart to join a future series.

The Call the Midwife actress is said to be on BBC bosses hit list with their hopes lying with Sarah to impress her co-star and pal to sign up next year.
An insider told The Mail on Sunday: “Sarah and Miranda used to watch Strictly at home together before Sarah was on it.
“It was their joint dream to be on [the show]. Ultimately, Miranda would love to go on the show.”
They added: “The BBC is desperate to get the big names back on the show.

“If they could tempt Miranda onto it, then it could encourage other big celebrities to do it again.
“Sarah is their hope because she’s so close to Miranda.”
The comments come after Sarah was one of the top scorers on Saturday night’s Strictly Come Dancing for her Argentine Tango with partner Vito Coppola, which saw the professional split his pants whilst performing.
During their routine, Vito dressed in a pair of figure-hugging three-quarter pants, white tights and a waistcoat.
He was seen throwing Sarah around in a series of daring lifts and at the end of the dance, before his pants split.
Vito was seen holding his bottom to conceal the rip when he left the dancefloor and during the judges feedback.
Speaking to Claudia Winkleman in the clauditorium, Vito said: “Everything is together, a bit of overbalance, everything happened right now.
“My wig and you and the dress, and my trousers broke right here.”
The judges scored the pair an impressive 38 for their dance, with Anton du Beke and Motsi Mabuse awarding a 10 points.
