Strictly Come Dancing Judges Join Celebrity Gogglebox In A First For Hit Channel 4 Show

When it comes to judging a quickstep or a salsa, the Strictly Come Dancing judges are not backwards at throwing forwards their opinions. But now Craig Revel Horwood and Anton du Beke will be offering up their thoughts on the nation's TV programmes for Celebrity Gogglebox. And it remains to be seen if Craig will break out his "fab-u-lous" catchphrase, or just find the shows plain frightful.

Pals Craig and Anton are the first of the BBC ballroom show's judges to team up for the Channel 4 show, now in its seventh series after first airing in 2019.

The pair have worked together on BBC1 for more than 20 years, having joined the show at its launch in 2004, and knew each other from the dance circuit before that.

They'll make their debut on Celebrity Gogglebox on Friday, joining in with recent newcomer Vernon Kay, who is married to fellow Strictly lifer Tess Daly.

Anton told the Mirror : "I'm super excited to be swapping the judges chair for a comfy sofa! Sitting down with my dear friend and fellow Strictly Come Dancing judge Craig Revel Horwood to enjoy a bit of telly on this new series of Gogglebox."

In a video to promote their apprearance, the pair look relaxed and happy with Craig declaring: "Gogglebox darlings, Friday, 9pm, join us there."

Many of the Celebrity Gogglebox regulars have returned for the current series including Rylan Clark and his mum Linda, Denise Van Outen and Johnny Vaughan, Gok Wan and Fearne Cotton, Gyles Brandreth and Lulu, Nick and Liv Grimshaw, Clare Balding and Alice Arnold, Mo Gilligan and Babatunde Aleshe and Martin and Roman Kemp.
