Holly Willoughby and Stephen Mulhern return as the hosts of the hugely-popular entertainment show which is now in its 17th series. They will be joined by some familiar faces as the judging panel will once again include ice skating royalty in Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean, as well as TV personalities Ashley Banjo and Oti Mabuse.

Among those hoping to impress the judges, the studio audience and the viewers at home are former Premier League footballer Anton Ferdinand, Eastenders actress Charlie Brooks, TOWIE alumna Ferne McCann and one of the UK’s most decorated Olympians, the great Sir Steve Redgrave.

"There are all these people trying to persuade me now to do it, I can’t dance, I can’t skate, why am I doing this show? I’ve got no idea at all,” joked Redgrave when announcing he was joining the show. He may be the oldest contestant at 62 but you can never rule out a five-time Olympic gold medalist.
