Vicky Pattison has been unveiled as the 11th celebrity joining this year’s Strictly Come Dancing line-up, with the news confirmed during Thursday’s This Morning. The TV star first found fame on Geordie Shore but has since carved out a successful career as a presenter and reality TV personality. Speaking about signing up for the BBC dance competition, Pattison said: “I’m absolutely buzzing to be part of this year’s Strictly Come Dancing lineup… but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t terrified. “I am not a natural dancer! However, it’s such an amazing opportunity for me to step out of my comfort zone and to challenge myself in a completely new way, and I just really hope I don’t make too much of a fool of myself!” It’s not her first taste of a high-profile competition show. In 2015, Pattison was crowned Queen of the Jungle on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!, has tested her cooking skills on Celebrity MasterChef and also starred on Channel 4’s Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins. Pattison currently hosts the Get a Grip podcast with fellow Strictly Come Dancing alum, Angela Scanlon, who starred on the BBC series in 2023. Earlier on Thursday, it was confirmed that Thomas Skinner would join the star-studded line-up. Skinner first rose to fame on The Apprentice in 2019, where his larger-than-life personality made him a breakout star. Since then, he has appeared on programmes including 8 Out of 10 Cats, The Wheel, Michael McIntyre’s Big Show, Good Morning Britain and Faking It, as well as delivering a much-talked-about appearance on Celebrity MasterChef. On joining Strictly Come Dancing, Skinner added: “I’m beyond excited to be joining Strictly Come Dancing. “I’ve tackled the boardroom and some big breakfasts in my time but stepping onto the dance floor under that glitter ball is next level stuff! “I’ve never danced in my life (other than at weddings) but I’m ready to graft and of course have a laugh. Bring on the sequins, sambas and most importantly, the BOSH to the ballroom!” Skinner will join the likes of podcast host and YouTube star George Clarke, RuPaul’s Drag Race UK finalist La Voix, former England rugby player Chris Robshaw, and model and CBBC actress Ellie Goldstein, who is to become the first contestant with Down’s syndrome to take part in Strictly’s full series. The line-up is completed by Love Island winner Dani Dyer-Bowen, EastEnders actress Balvinder Sopal, Gladiators star Harry Aikines-Aryeetey, Doctor Who actress Alex Kingston, and former footballer Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink.
