The singer will pair up with Strictly Come Dancing's Brendan Cole in the BBC song show which sees eight celebrities sing duets with well-know singers.

The cameras will follow the gruelling daily rehearsals and a fortnight of live performances as the contestants battle it out for the Just the Two of Us crown.

Soul and R&B singer Beverley starred in the first series of the celebrity talent show last year and was paired up with Radio 5 Live's Nicky Campbell.

Other stars appearing include Casualty's Luke Bailey who teams up with ex-Atomic Kitten singer Natasha Hamilton; EastEnders' Hannah Waterman and Marti Pellow; Watchdog's Julia Bradbury and Tony Christie and Masterchef's Greg Wallace with T'Pau singer Carol Decker.

In the last series Black Country-born actress Sian Reeves and Russell Watson were victorious.

The Cutting It star, who was born in West Bromwich, picked up a £10,000 cheque for Wolverhampton children's charity Promise Dreams as a result of winning the show.
