Josh Widdicombe has been announced as one of the new hosts of Strictly Come Dancing. He'll present the BBC One show alongside Emma Willis and Johannes Radebe.

The BBC notes: "They will preside over the Strictly ballroom in spectacular style this autumn in an exciting new era for the BBC's glittering hit entertainment show made by BBC Studios".

He says: "Dancing the Charleston dressed as a penguin for the 2024 Christmas Special of Strictly remains my career high point, so I am giddy with excitement, honoured and a little overawed to be given the chance to step into the biggest shoes in television. I adore Emma and Jojo and can't wait to spend my weekends with them. I'll dust off the penguin costume."

Channel 4 has revealed these first look pictures for Number 10, the comedy drama series set in the Prime Minister's house.

Written by Steven Moffat, the series stars Rafe Spall as the Prime Minister, Katherine Kelly as the Chief of Staff and Jenna Coleman as the Deputy Chief of Staff.

The producers explain: "There's a Prime Minister in the attic, a coffee bar in the basement, and a wallpapered labyrinth of romance, crisis and heartbreak in-between. Set in the only terrace house in history with mice and a nuclear deterrent, it's the only knock-through in the world where a hangover can start a war. The government will be fictional and unspecific, but the problems will be real.

"We'll never know which party is in power, because once the whole world hits the fan it barely matters. This is a show about the building and everyone inside. Not just the Prime Minister upstairs, but the conspiracy theorist who runs the cafe three floors below, the man who repairs the lift that never works, the madly ambitious 'advisors' fighting for office space in cupboards. Oh, and of course, the cat.

"A drama about one of the most famous addresses in the world, Number 10 is all of Britain in a house: it's British history under one roof. It's how we all got into the mess we're in. It's also our only hope of getting out of it."

Transmission details will be revealed in due course.
