Strictly Come Dancing has signed up its first pair of identical twins, according to report.

The BBC One ballroom dancing show has landed television doctors Chris and Xand Van Tulleken - who have made their name in a series of documentaries - for the new series and hope that by pitting them against each other, they will bring in bumper ratings.

A source told The Sun: “Chris and Xand are both intelligent, charismatic guys who the audience are sure to warm to. And watching how they compete would be fascinating.

“Chris is quite on board with the idea, but Xand still needs to be persuaded. So now they are really pulling out the stops to convince him to go ahead.”
