The comedian will be paired with professional dancer Karen Hauer, it was announced on the spin-off show Strictly: It Takes Two tonight.
The comedian and Last Leg co-host said: 'I am utterly terrified this will end in humiliation and worried I’m going to be so bad I will ruin Christmas for the nation. Why have I done this?"
In the Strictly Come Dancing Christmas Special, produced by BBC Studios, each of the six couples will perform a festive fuelled routine in the hope of impressing the judges, Craig Revel Horwood, Motsi Mabuse, Anton Du Beke and head judge Shirley Ballas, and the voting studio audience.
