Judy Murray confirmed in 'Strictly' lineup

Judy Murray has been confirmed by the BBC as the second celebrity in this year's Strictly Come Dancing lineup.

The 54-year-old, who is the mother of 2013 Wimbledon champion Andy Murray, works as a tennis coach, but will be trying to impress on the dancefloor in the reality show.

"I'm a huge Strictly Come Dancing fan but a total armchair dancer," said Murray. "It's going to be a big challenge for me and for whoever has to dance with me but I absolutely can't wait to get started!"

The Saturdays singer Frankie Sandford, who is married to former footballer Wayne Bridge, was the first contestant to be confirmed by the BBC.
