Gymnastics Reality TV Show is A Go

The BBC is officially bringing the first ever gymnastics reality television competitions to audiences and judging the competition will be the fabulous Nadia Comaneci and London Olympian, Louis Smith.



The format is going to be very similar to Dancing With The Stars, ten celebrities will be coached by gymnastics pros (Beth Tweddle will be one of them and they'll try not to die while trying to learn skills that athletes take years to learn.

The series will debut this summer and will take place in a series of live shows over a six week period. Obviously,  ABC will no doubt have their own series to bring to American audiences. Because whatever the British do, the American media must adapt it for their audiences. Yawn.
