Nicky Byrne and Amanda Byram were announced as hosts last week, and the ShinaAwil-produced show is set to air on RTÉ One for 12 weeks starting on Sunday the 8th of January at 6.30pm.

Each celebrity will be paired with a professional dancing partner and will be given a new dance to master each week.
