DanceX – The Mother Of All Dance-Offs Comes To BBC1

Two giants in the world of choreography come face to face across the dance floor in the biggest clash of dance titans British TV has ever seen. Spurred on by host Ben Shephard, top choreographers Arlene Phillips and Bruno Tonioli strut back on to our screens and go head-to-head as they search for a sensational new dancing and singing group in DanceX.

The acclaimed choreographers are leaving their Strictly Come Dancing sequins at home and upping the funk factor as they go head to head in search of the next big thing to take the UK dance scene by storm.

They have scoured the country for top notch male and female performers for the programme, which will see the very best dancers and singers win a place in a brand new group.

From breakdancing to body-popping, hip hop grooves to fusion funk, contestants must prove they've got what it takes to be part of the next big thing.

Arlene says: "We're looking for the coolest, hippest dancers and singers, who have the drive and ambition to make it big and be part of the most exciting new group of the 21st century."

Arlene and Bruno put their reputations on the line and go head-to-head as they take two teams of finalists under their wings. Each week, the hopefuls strut their stuff with the latest dance moves and show off their vocal talent in the hope that they won't be put up for elimination.

DanceX comes to BBC1 in mid July.
