Strictly Come Dancing has revealed two more of its celebrity line-up for the new series: radio presenter Vick Hope and former cricketer Graeme Swann.
They join YouTube star Joe Sugg, presenter and campaigner Katie Piper, Steps singer Faye Tozer and Red Dwarf actor Danny John-Jules, who were all announced as glitterball hopefuls this week.
Hope, the co-presenter of the Breakfast Show on London's Capital FM, said she is already on edge.

"I'm so nervous about doing something outside of my comfort zone in front of so many people on live TV, which I could easily screw up," she told the Strictly website. "I've started genuinely having nightmares about going out in the first week!"

Fellow contestant Swann, however, said he is looking forward to being back in competition.
"I spent my career enjoying the excitement of performing in front of crowds and cameras," he explained. "It's a bizarre pressure that makes you sink or swim and I've missed it since having to retire from cricket."
More Strictly contestants will be announced in the coming days. The show is back on BBC One next month.
