Helen Skelton's first Strictly Come Dancing look revealed as she stuns in new trailer

Strictly Come Dancing is just weeks away and Helen Skelton as well as the other stars have given fans a taster of what's to come in a first look preview.

The stars will be swapping their day jobs for the dance floor as they compete in the 2022 BBC dancing show. They went all out in full glam as they took to the dancefloor and shimmied to the BBC show's theme song as they threw disco balls toward the next person.

Helen can be seen rocking a black and copper ensemble which she paired with black high heels and a black top underneath the wrap-around jumpsuit.

Helen looked gorgeous as she smiled at the cameras and juggled the disco ball and danced around, The Mirror reports.

Fleur East went all out in her neon lime green co-ord top and skirt that was covered in fur, with Matt Goss keeping it equally as bright in a green blazer and trousers.

Molly Rainford was a disco queen in black flared trousers and a crop top with long dangling sleeves. The outfit was emblazoned with bright blue and pink patterns to add a little pop.

Other stars competing this year include James Bye, Hamza Yassin, Tony Adams, Ellie Taylor, Tyler West, Ellie Simmonds, Jayde Adams, Richie Anderson, Kaye Adams, Will Mellor and Kym Marsh.

The Strictly professional dancers were quick to comment, with Johannes Radebe leading the way with a love heart emoji.

Strictly judge Motsi Mabuse also replied: "The mood is set! Let's dance." However, the celebs taking part didn't seem so confident, with Kym simply saying: "Eeeeeek!" While Loose Women's Kaye Adams replied: "Oh God!"

Helen previously said she was nervous about taking part in the show despite being installed as the second favourite at 6/1, behind singer Fleur East at 7/2. The TV star said: “I just wanted to wear nice dresses. I work on farms. I watch cows give birth and stand in wellies.”
