Culture Select Committee Chair Julian Knight has already had some fun with DG Tim Davie, challenging him to spot the difference between ITV2's Love Island and the BBC's forthcoming Love In The Flesh. 

Now news of a 'new' format, coming to BBC1 and BBC3: I Like The Way U Move sees five single professional dancers partner up with rookie non-dancers at ‘the mixer’ in a bid to find love. The newly formed couples are then given a themed, intimate dance routine to perfect in just 48 hours. They live and rehearse together in “the house” where romance and drama unfolds. Each episode, they’re judged on their chemistry and connection at the “dance off” by the host, a resident dance expert and a special guest. The couple with the least connection is eliminated and the "most fire" couple who demonstrate the best connection across the series, wins. Featuring dramatic house reality, stunning dance performances and emotional eliminations, this breakthrough format promises dating reality and dancing drama in equal measure.

The announcement comes from Sumi Connock, Creative Director of Formats at BBC Studios. Soon to follow - Dating Baking, in which singles cook and eat each other's saucily-iced fancies, in swimwear; Question Time After Hours, in which wannabe 20-year-olds face topical questions, and after-party in swim-wear, chaired by Fiona Bruce; and Naked Countryfile on Adam and Eve's Farm.
