Comments |
Former
Maidstone and the Weald MP Ann Widdecombe will compete in the new
series of Strictly Come Dancing.
The ex-backbencher has been tightlipped about the rumours she is
to appear on the hit Saturday night show.
Now BBC bosses have confirmed the line-up - and it includes the
outspoken Tory diehard.
Other celebs included in the line-up are rugby player Gavin
Henson, actresses Patsy Kensit and Felicity Kendal and magician
Paul Daniels.
Dubbed the 'wild card', Ms Widdecombe was chosen as the first
eminent politician to take to the dance floor.
A BBC spokesman said: "Judges take cover - totally outspoken,
you know you are guaranteed the shock factor.
"Once Widdi has waltzed, ballroom will never be the same
again."
The novice dancer says she is most looking forward to a gentle
waltz and expects her professional partner to have 'the patience of
Job'.
The eighth series launches this weekend.
