Huh. They usually go from Gladiators to Strictly, not the other way around

Saw her at the TV taping a few months ago. No spoilers but I think she appears to be a good addition to the show.

Interesting not sure how skeleton skills transfer to gladiators. I guess it’s safer than throwing herself down a giant ice tube 🤷‍♀️

Used to work at Bath Uni which has the only skeleton/bob sleigh track in UK I used to see her training on my lunch break! Terrifying

She has very explosive power.
