The Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall have reportedly offered to host a BBC Strictly Come Dancing episode from Buckingham Palace.

       A live show will be streamed from the historic building's ballroom in either the semi or quarter finals of the programme later this year, according to The Sun newspaper.

       Prince Charles, 73, and Camilla, 74, are said to have made the offer to the BBC, and the plan has reportedly been approved by the Queen.

       The Royal couple are known to be firm fans of the show, and may even take to the floor for a dance themselves during the episode.

       A source told The Sun: "Charles and Camilla are very much driving this and the BBC couldn’t quite believe what was being offered. Strictly at Buckingham Palace is just TV dreamland. It should be a wonderful spectacle."

       The Palace ballroom opened in 1856 and has hosted 112 state banquets during the Queen's 70-year reign.

       Earlier this year, Camilla met Rose Ayling-Ellis, the first deaf contestant to appear on the show who went on to be awarded the coveted Glitterball.

       The BBC declined to comment. Buckingham Palace was contacted for comment.
