Bradley Walsh and his son Barney Walsh have been announced as the hosts of the BBC's upcoming Gladiators revival.
The athletic competition - a staple of Saturday night TV in the '90s - is returning later this year for a new 11-episode run as part of BBC One's primetime schedules.
Now the Walshes, who front a travelogue show together for ITV called Breaking Dad, have been confirmed for the roles previously taken by Ulrika Jonsson and John Fashanu.
The pair already have a strong connection with the show as Bradley's wife Donna Walsh was a choreographer the cheerleader troupe on the original series.
"Wow, I can't believe that I've been asked to be part of this iconic show," said Bradley. "I used to sit backstage, or in the audience, every week watching my wife be part of this juggernaut and now I get to co-host a new version of GLADIATORS!!! Saturday night family entertainment at its best... ARE YOU READY?!"
Filming on the new series will take place in Sheffield early next month ahead of an expected broadcast this autumn.
