Helen Skelton is being championed for a shock return to Strictly Come Dancing as fans of the BBC show back her to replace Rylan Clark on It Takes Two.
In the same week that it was announced, completely out of the blue, that former X Factor star Rylan had quit it It Takes Two, Helen returned to screens for a new run of her popular Channel 5 show Springtime on the Farm.
Confirming his departure from It Takes Two, fuelling speculation that he is going to host the ITV reboot of Big Brother, Rylan said: "After 4 fantastic years it’s time for me to hang up my glittery jacket and say goodbye to It Takes Two. I’ve had the best time hosting the show alongside Janette and Zoe and I can’t thank the amazing team enough for always putting on a great show.

"I’ve been welcomed into the Strictly family and will firmly hold that title dear to me. The time has come for me to pass on the baton to someone else and explore what else life has for me Thank you Strictly, you will always have my heart… and dancing feet."
Helen appeared alongside Rylan on numerous occasions on It Takes Two last year, as she made it all the way to the final alongside pro partner Gorka Marquez. And now, having once again been mightily impressed by her on Springtime on the Farm, many viewers want Helen to fill Rylan's vacant position.
Wishing Rylan well and pushing for Helen to take on the job, one fan took to Twitter to respond: "Helen Skelton would be a fab replacement," while another tweeted Helen to ask: "k asked: "Potential Takes Two presenter??"
