BBC newsreaders and presenters Emily Maitlis, Sophie Raworth, Susanna Reid and Sian Williams are joining Strictly Come Dancing for a special charity challenge for Children in Need later this month.

The show's male judges - Len Goodman, Bruno Tonioli and Craig Revel Horwood – will deliver their verdicts on the quartet's dancefloor moves on Children in Need night on Friday November 18.

The fourth Strictly Come Dancing judge, Alesha Dixon, will be co-presenting Children in Need with Terry Wogan, Fearne Cotton and Tess Daly.

As part of the Children in Need fundraising events on the BBC, The Apprentice boss Alan Sugar will enter the Dragons' Den, while the cast of EastEnders will perform the hits of Queen and their take on The Muppets' Mah Na Mah Na.
