LOCAL dancer Kylie Jones is set to star in a new programme on BBC1 hosted by Bruce Forsyth.
'Strictly Come Dancing' will be broadcast this Saturday at 6.25pm and will run for eight weeks.
Eight celebrities will be paired off with eight professional ballroom dancers.
The competing couples will be knocked out one by one as a panel of judges, the studio audience and members of the viewing public vote on who should go through to the next round.
Kylie has been dancing professionally for years and has previously made dancing appearances on Blue Peter and The Generation Game.
She is delighted to be on the show but doesn't want to hype it up too much lest she tempt the wrong kind of fate!
