Comedian Ellie Taylor has been named the new host of It Takes Two, the spin-off show from the popular British dance competition Strictly Come Dancing. This follows the recent departures of former presenters Janette Manrara and Fleur East. Taylor, who previously competed on Strictly in 2022 alongside professional dancer Johannes Radebe, expressed her excitement about taking on the role, calling it her "dream job." She also shared a lighter moment, noting that her eight-year-old daughter and two-year-old son are not thrilled about the new schedule, as it interrupts their bedtime routine. Taylor revealed that after securing the role, she reached out to Fleur East for support, acknowledging the transition from contestant to presenter. She also addressed the recent changes in the Strictly franchise, including the exits of longtime presenters Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman. Despite these shifts, Taylor emphasized that the core of the show—dancing—will remain central to the series. The new iteration of It Takes Two will bring fresh updates while maintaining its role as a companion show to the main Strictly Come Dancing program. It will continue to offer fans behind-the-scenes content and additional insights into the Saturday night production. The show aims to keep the audience engaged with exclusive material that complements the main series. With Ellie Taylor at the helm, It Takes Two is set to evolve while preserving the spirit of the original show. Fans are looking forward to seeing how Taylor’s comedic background and personal touch will shape the future of the spin-off.
