Bong! Newsreaders For CIN Special

It's a BBC tradition to get its newsreaders involved in Children In Need. This usually requires them to sing and wear daft costumes.

This year, however, the stakes have been raised. Four female news presenters - Emily Maitlis (as previously reported), Sophie Raworth, Susanna Reid and Sian Williams will all be taking part in this year's Strictly Come Dancing special for the fundraiser.

There is no word on who will partner them, but Anton and Vincent could be safe bets since they have already departed the main competition.
