Strictly Come Dancing stars Amy Dowden and Carlos Gu have been announced as new additions to the Celebrity Gogglebox cast. The professional dancers are well-known for their roles on the hit BBC show and recently completed a UK tour.
Dowden, who joined Strictly in 2017, made a triumphant return to the ballroom in 2025. This followed her battle with breast cancer in 2023, which involved chemotherapy and two mastectomies. She expressed delight in her new role, calling it a 'treat' to relax and react to television.
Gu, who joined Strictly in 2022 and won the glitterball trophy with Karen Carney, is equally enthusiastic about the series. He anticipates providing 'brutally honest' commentary alongside Dowden. The duo described their experience as fun and expressive.
Celebrity Gogglebox is scheduled to return on June 26 at 9pm on Channel 4.
