Giovanni Pernice and Anton Du Beke’s Adventures In Spain came to an end on Monday night, with the pair dropping a huge hint at the show’s future.
Viewers watched the Strictly Come Dancing duo travel across the stunning country together, and the third and final episode saw Anton, 57, reunite with his wife Hannah Summers, his two children and mother Ascensión for the final leg of the trip.
After reaching Ascensión’s home village, the pair joined Strictly pro Gorka Marquez for a stunning performance.
As the final episode came to a close, Anton said: ‘What a lovely, lovely way to spend a summer. Where to next?’
Giovanni coyly replied: ‘Well, it doesn’t matter where we’re going. As long as we’re together,’ hinting that the pair’s show could be heading back to screens.

Giovanni Pernice and Anton Du Beke ‘s Spanish Adventure came to an end on Monday night, with the pair dropping a huge hint about the show’s future
It comes after Giovanni took to social media to break his silence in the wake of claims Strictly bosses are in crunch talks over his future on the show.
Taking to Instagram on Sunday evening, he opted not to mention the scandal surrounding the show and instead plugged his BBC TV show with Anton.
Giovanni’s carefree promotional post comes amid shocking whispers surrounding his time as a pro on Strictly, after he was hit with new allegations that he left a fourth celebrity partner in tears – leading to the bosses’ crunch talks.
The dancer reportedly left Step’s Faye Tozer, 48, in tears after a heated clash backstage of spin-off show It Takes Two in 2018.
A source told The Sun how Giovanni’s ‘fiercely competitive’ nature left the pop star emotional and they butted heads during rehearsals.
Telling the publication: ‘They did often clash and she was in tears on It Takes Two’ She found how he spoke to her abrasive.’
Giovanni is already feuding with Amanda Abbington who quit the BBC series last year before accusing him of difficult behaviour during training and that her time in the competition left her with PTSD.
It was also reported that Amanda joined the Italian’s other former partners Ranvir Singh and Laura Whitmore for an ’emotional summit’ to ‘compare notes’ about their time working with him.

The Sun also reported that Giovanni would be meeting Strictly’s top brass on Thursday, saying the broadcaster was backing the dancer after not receiving any offical complaints against him.
‘He is an accomplished pro dancer and it’s expected he will be taking his place in the formal line-up when it’s announced later this month.’
MailOnline have contacted BBC, Giovanni and Faye’s reps for comment at the time.
A source close to Amanda, Ranvir and Amanda told MailOnline: ‘They are very unhappy with the way the BBC are handling this.’
The insider continued: ‘It’s one thing saying they are standing by him, but they feel as if Giovanni is being promoted and pushed centre stage in a bid to make them go away and keep quiet. It’s a kick in the teeth.
‘One of the reasons they wanted to meet up was to try and work on a way forward because they have no intention of just backing down and letting this just fade away.
‘All three have been impacted in different ways by what happened and they’ve agreed to speak again about how best they can get something done about it because they are genuinely worried about want went on and the fact someone else could end up experiencing what they went through.

‘But right now there’s a feeling that Gio is pretty much untouchable – especially given he is so close to Anton who thinks the world of him and can’t believe the stuff he’s been hearing claimed about his mate.’
The comments come after BBC have shown their support for Giovanni by plugging his new prime time show with Anton Du Beke.
MailOnline’s Katie Hind reported earlier this week that Giovanni had up until now been agonisingly waiting to hear about his future due to Strictly boss Sarah James being on maternity leave.
A show insider told The Mail: ‘There’s a bit of chaos surrounding all this year’s show. Usually, there would be a decision made on the professional dancers by now but because the boss is off, and she is held in such high regard, everything has been put on hold.
‘No decisions would be made without her and it isn’t really okay to expect someone on maternity leave to get involved in work matters when they are off.
‘For Giovanni, it means he has to wait to see his fate. The BBC have backed him on this, they have had no complaint from Amanda and it has all become rather strange.
‘But he hasn’t put pen to paper yet. Giovanni, of course, wants to return. Why wouldn’t he?’
While Amanda hasn’t made any complaint against Giovanni her representative briefed a red top newspaper that she had asked the BBC for video footage of the pair’s training sessions.
