Strictly Come Dancing's Zoe Ball returns to It Takes Two with more backstage gossip

Zoe Ball will host Strictly Come Dancing's sister show It Takes Two

STRICTLY COME DANCING spin off show It Takes Two is back with a bang with more exclusive access and backstage gossip than ever before.

 

Zoe Ball will make a typically glamorous return, this time for a weekly one hour Friday show in front of a live audience.

Each episode will see a whole host of professional dancers including Joanne Clifton, Karen Hardy, Ian and and Robin Windsor serve as a team of professional experts.

 

Fans will still be able to get their daily fix of all things Strictly related ahead of the weekend's main show with an exclusive insight into the gruelling dance rehearsals and chats with the celebrities, professional dancers and the costume department to make sure absolutely no Strictly stone is left unturned.

Avid Strictly fan Zoe said: “I can't wait to get back into the It Takes Two Glitterdome, my home from home, and dust off the sparkly shoes and jumpers and start grilling our glorious Strictly Class of 2015 daily on their trials and tribulations and tangos - and what a line up so far!
