The 17th series of the NTA and Bafta award-winning entertainment show produced by 主播大秀 Studios will return in the autumn on 主播大秀 One putting the sparkle back into Saturday and Sunday nights.
Catherine says: “I’m thrilled to be a part of this year’s Strictly Come Dancing. I’m a huge fan of the show. It’ll be my biggest challenge to date as I’m not much of a dancer, but I’ve always wanted to learn the skill and the time feels right! I’m nervous as hell but super excited to work with such talented professionals. Hold onto your jazz shoes... mine is sure to be a bumpy/clumsy/fun ride!”
