The dance competition has been renewed for season 18 and returns on March 4 with new judges Alison Holker – who first met her late husband Stephen 'tWitch' Boss when they were all-stars on season 7 of the Fox show – and Maksim Chmerkovskiy .
Cat's This Morning hosting duties came after she first presented the show alongside Paul O'Grady at Cilla Black's 60th birthday about 20 years ago.
The show is now expected to undergo a revamp after Holly quit. Her departure came five months after the departure of Philip Schofield, after his affair with a young male showrunner was made public.
