Tommy Fury and Curtis Pritchard reunite for brand new ITV2 show The Boxer & The Ballroom Dancer

Not only did Tommy Fury and Curtis Pritchard find romance with Molly-Mae Hague and Maura Higgins in the Love Island villa this summer; they also found a bromance. For this brand new 3 x 60' series coming to ITV2 later this year, the pals will undertake a new challenge as they switch jobs.

Professional boxer, Tommy, will be swapping his boxing gloves for dancing shoes as he'll take to the floor, training with a professional dancer for a ballroom competition

Meanwhile, former Dancing With The Stars professional, Curtis, will be entering the boxing ring. The gloves are off and he'll be doing the rounds with a boxing coach - and have a little bit of help and guidance from world champ, Ricky Hatton - to get him ready for the fight of his life.

Girlfriends, Molly-Mae and Maura, will be supporting the boys as they discuss the trials and tribulations of learning a new skill that is so far out of their comfort zone.

Curtis says:

I am so excited to have my own show coming on ITV2 with my best mate Tommy. It is a dream come true. I am so up for the challenge and cannot wait to get in that boxing ring. I have been training with the best of the best and am looking forward to showing everyone my boxing ability!

Tommy says:

I am loving taking on the challenge of swapping my boxing gloves for dancing shoes and to do it all alongside my mate, Curtis, has been amazing. I can't wait for everyone to see what we've been working so hard for!

ITV Commissioning Editor for Factual Entertainment, Amanda Stavri, says:

This year's Love Island bromance brought together two lads from completely different worlds. Now, they're being parachuted into each others lives with hilarious consequences, as Tommy hits the ballroom dance floor and Curtis gloves up in the boxing ring.

The Boxer & The Ballroom Dancer is an ITV Studios production for ITV2, commissioned by Commissioning Editor for Factual Entertainment, Amanda Stavri and Head of Digital Channels and Acquisitions, Paul Mortimer. Executive Producer for ITV Studios is Laura Capaldi.
