Radio host Chris Evans has confirmed that he has agreed to take part in next year's series of Strictly Come Dancing.

It's unusual to make an announcement like this as usually the celebrity contestants are kept a complete secret until shortly before the series begins.

"Everyone puts it off and tries and keep it a secret. No, announce now. We're doing it now," he said.
