Radio presenter Vick Hope has been announced as the fifth contestant for Strictly 2018! She said, "Honestly it's really surreal, this is a huge show, isn't it? It's crazy. I used to do contemporary dance, I'd pretend to be a tree or a rock, I don't know how helpful that's going to be."

England cricket legend Graeme Swann has announced he would be joining Strictly in the autumn! Speaking in a radio interview, Graeme said it had been nearly impossible to keep the secret from his kids, "They are huge fans of the show and I can't wait to see their faces when I tell them. I don't have any background in dancing but can do the floss so let's hope this comes in useful! I spent my career enjoying the excitement of performing in front of crowds and cameras. It's a bizarre pressure that makes you sink or swim and I've missed it since having to retire from cricket."

This Morning's resident medical expert Dr Ranj Singh has confirmed him appearance on the next series of Strictly! The presenter said, "I'm so sore at the moment, I've been going to the gym to try and get fitter and everything hurts. My friends would describe me as a cross between dad dancing and go-go dancing.

Investigative journalist Stacey Dooley has been announced as the next contestant! Stacey said in a statement on the Strictly Twitter account, 'It's happening! I'm taking part in Strictly Come Dancing this year and my mother is going to explode. 2018 has already been such an incredible year for me. I've done some amazing things and I'm excited to add 'becoming a dancing GENIUS' to the list. Typically, work for me is very serious and can be quite hard core so I'm going to soak up the escapism and bathe in sequins. See you on the dancefloor!'

Blue singer and former EastEnders actor Lee Ryan was the 12th celebrity announced for the 2018 series. He said, "I was nervous, even to say yes. I used to run out of my dance lessons, I used to hide in the singing lessons. That's why I can sing and not dance."

I'm more nervous about being on stage, performing live and in front of the judges than I am about the Elite Paratriathlon Grand Final next month!"I'm more nervous about being on stage, performing live and in front of the judges than I am about the Elite Paratriathlon Grand Final next month! But I'm up for the challenge and excited to swap my triathlon kit for dancing shoes and sequins."
