Former Strictly Come Dancing stars James and Ola Jordan will be taking part in Strictly the Real Full Monty's upcoming series.

The couple, who live near Maidstone, will appear on the ITV show which sees celebrities take off their kit in the name of cancer awareness.

James, 43, who grew up in Medway, and his wife Ola, 39, will be performing alongside former Blue singer Duncan James, actress Laila Morse from EastEnders, Olympic athlete Colin Jackson and Love Island contestant Teddy Soares.

The pair were professional dancers on Strictly Come Dancing from 2006 until 2013 and 2015 and have also appeared on All Star Mr & Mrs, Dancing on Wheels and Through the Keyhole.

Ole is a judge on Poland's Dancing with the Stars show and has also competed on The Jump, I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! and Celebrity Coach Trip.

While James has appeared on Celebrity Big Brother, Pointless, Dancing on Ice.

Last year James Jordan slammed Bearsted Golf Club over their treatment of his terminally-ill father.

The dancer was left stunned and angry after the club in Ware Street, near Maidstone, refused to refund his dying dad's annual subscriptions.

Speaking back in November 2020, he said: "This isn't just about the money. I think they are morally wrong and I want to warn people about them."
