		</div><p>Len Goodman is best known on these shores for being “Head Judge Len” in Strictly Come Dancing – but across the Atlantic, his fans have been missing seeing him on Dancing With The Stars.</p>
<p>But now he is set for a return to the US version of the ballroom show, revealing in a taped message on the finale of the latest series: “Listen up! Len is coming back next season.”</p>
<p>The 71-year-old dance expert decided to opt out of the American show this time around so he could concentrate on Strictly in the UK. He has also recently had knee surgery.</p>
<p>Filming both shows, as he has done in the past, involves a punishing regime, with Len having to jet to the US and back every week.</p>
<p>But in a taped message shown on DWTS, he said: “I’ve been watching the show from the UK, and I must say everyone has been doing a fantastic job. Now you finalists, I want you go to give it your all in these last dances.</p>
<p>“As for the pros, I’ve got to mention for you as well — listen up! — Len is coming back next season, and I don’t want any of your nonsense.”</p>
<p>To professional dancer Val Chmerkovskiy, he said: “Val, stop pulling that face! Now may the best couple win, and happy holidays!”</p>
<p>In the US, Len has the reputation for being the most strict judge on the panel, according to E! Online – a position held by Craig Revel Horwood in the UK.</p>
<p>Fellow Strictly judge Bruno Tonioli is also on the DWTS judging panel, and is joined by Julianne Hough and Carrie Ann Inaba.</p>
<p>Since Len quit, his position has not been permanently filled, with a series of guest judges taking his seat.</p>
