- LAURA ARMSTRONG

STRICTLY star Helen Skelton is being lined up to shimmy into a presenting role on It Takes Two.

The Countryfile regular, 39, who made it to the final with Gorka Marquez last year, has held talks with BBC bosses about hosting its spin-off series.

It is understood the conversations originally centred on a temporary role filling in for Janette Manrara - who is expecting her first child in the summer with dance pro hubby Aljaž Škorjanec.
