BBC Strictly Come Dancing star Oti Mabuse has landed a brand new TV show after Romeo and Duet was cancelled. Oti quit as a pro dancer earlier this year.
The star has now landed a new game show format called The Tower. After Romeo and Duet - a dating show using singing to find love - flopped, The Tower is set to be made by Escape to the Chateau producers.
They say: “Star of Strictly, Dancing On Ice and The Masked Dancer Oti Mabuse is looking for outgoing, lively and knowledgeable teams of two to be part of a TV quiz show first, BirminghamLive reports. Set in a unique world, your general knowledge, strategic thinking and judgement will be tested to the max in this exciting new game.

"Teams of friends, family, colleagues or partners battle to win a cash prize. Be part of something extraordinary.” A source told the Sun: “The feeling was that it wasn’t a case of Oti not being right for the show, more that the show wasn’t right for Oti. We’ve seen on The Masked Dancer how her infectious energy and humour works best in a less scripted, more conversational setting.
“As host of a quiz show, Oti will have the chance to banter with contestants as well as use her presence to hold the show together. Everyone is very excited about The Tower.”
