Baby Steps
Looks like it's time for Emma Bunton to put those mad Latin dancing skillz she picked up during the release of 'Crickets Sing For Anamaria' to good use - it's been confirmed that she's to be one of the contestants on the next series of Strictly Come Dancing.
Joining Emma in the line-up are EastEnders actress Louisa Lytton, former Emmerdale and Bad Girls actress Claire King, TV presenter Carol Smillie, rugby player Matt Dawson (him from the celebrity version of The X Factor, if you don't remember), former Manchester United goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel and comedian Jimmy Tarbuck (ask your parents).
Co-host Tess Daly commented: "With a line-up like this, the new series is set to be bigger and better than ever before. Where else could you see a Spice Girl dancing alongside Jimmy Tarbuck?"
Where, indeed? We wish Emma the best of luck, and hope she doesn't suffer a similar fate to Mel C when she took part in The Games (she sustained a knee injury - ouch). We also hope this isn't the start of a trend that'll see Geri appearing on a future series of Love Island...
