Hide AdDad-of-one Chris has been paired up with the show’s longest-serving female pro, who has previously danced with Westlife’s Nicky Byrne, broadcaster Jeremy Vine and TV chefs Simon Rimmer and Dave Myers.
She reached the finals with former The Only Way is Essex star Mark Wright in 2014, finishing fourth overall, and made it to the quarter finals with actor Charles Venn last year – and we are excited to see where Chris is going to rank!
The Customs House has pledged to cheer the comedian on all the way – and is urging its customers and visitors to do the same.
