The 18th series of the award-winning BBC show is set to return to screens on Saturday and Sunday nights in October. The broadcaster is best known as the political editor for ITV’s Good Morning Britain, anchor for ITV’s Tonight and newsreader on ITN. Ranvir Singh said: “The initial feeling of being confirmed for Strictly is one of complete terror – feels like embarking on a rollercoaster, where you really want to do it but you are equally scared. Hopefully after the first dance I will feel exhilarated rather than sick!” Good Luck, Ranvir, from your KGS family!
