The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers, has said that Strictly judge Craig Revel Horwood stands a good chance of being named Beard of Autumn 2024 after he became the first name to be revealed on the shortlist
The campaigners say that Revel Horwood has resisted BBC pressure to shave his beard in the opening weeks of Strictly 2024. While Strictly often has hirsute contestants and professional dancers it is thought that Revel Horwood is the first ever judge to wear a beard.
The seasonal vote for Beard of Autumn takes place each year in the first half of October. The final shortlist will be revealed on 8th October with the winner declared on 15th October after two Close Shave rounds of voting and a Beard Off Final
The winner goes forward to the annual Beard of the Year vote in December.
BLF Organiser Keith Flett said, Craig Revel Horwood is noted for his astute professional views on Strictly dancers and his beard is adding extra gravitas.
