The spirit of the late Sir Bruce Forsyth is reportedly haunting the ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ studio.
The BBC One shows former presenter tragically passed away in August this year aged 89, but it is believed staff, contestants, judges and members of the audience have noticed a "friendly presence" on the dancefloor, which is believed to be the ghost of the late TV legend.
A BBC insider, who has claimed to have heard the tapping of footsteps when nobody was around, told The Daily Star Online: "It’s hard to put a finger on it, it’s just a feeling.
"The best way to describe it would be friendly presence."
And ghost expert, Mark Smith, doesn’t think it would be "unreasonable" for the "soul" of the British television personality to return to the place he was "happiest".
He said: " When we pass away the soul returns to the place we were happiest at in the physical world.
"For Bruce that could be at the BBC.
"It’s up to people whether they want to believe it is Bruce but it’s not unreasonable to think it could be."
However, Mark has encouraged this year’s competitors, which include Mollie King, Alexandra Burke, Gemma Atkinson, Davood Ghadami, Aston Merrygold, and Debbie McGee to be "scared" of the otherworldly figure.
He added: "There is no reason for anybody to be scared.
"Bruce was not scary in life so there is no reason his spirit will be scary or want to harm anyone. He may have just come to say hello."
Bruce sparked concern surrounding his health in March this year when he spent almost one week in intensive care, after he suffered a chest infection.
But the last blow was dealt a few months later when the showbiz icon suffered two aneurysms, which is when the wall of an artery that pumps blood to the brain becomes weak and can cause fluid to leak into the skull.
Bruce is survived by his wife Lady Wilnelia Forsyth and his six children – daughters Debbie, Julie and Laura from his first marriage with Penny Calvert, Charlotte and Louisa with his second spouse Anthea Redfern and a son with Wilnelia – as well as nine grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.
