Former Strictly Come Dancing judge Len Goodman is to host a new primetime entertainment show, Partners In Rhyme.

The series will see contestants and celebrities team up to play a series of comedy rounds, all based on rhyming clues, and is being produced by Accidentally On Purpose for BBC One and Panda Television.

Len Goodman said: “It’s time to rhyme with a whizz of a quiz. It’s a ten from Len!”

Jo Wallace, commissioning editor for the BBC, added: “I’m really happy to see Len back on BBC One on Saturday nights where he belongs!”

Moira Ross, head of Panda TV, commented: “I’m delighted that Panda’s first commission is with my old friend Len Goodman. He’s rhyming royalty, this show is made for him.”

The series is due on BBC One later this year.
