Meanwhile, Celebrity Gogglebox won’t be Danny and Dani’s only starring role together this year, as they’re also signed up to appear on stage together in Nativity! The Musical.
They’ll team up at the Eventim Apollo in Hammersmith, London in December.
A clearly thrilled Danny, who plays Walford’s Mick Carter, broke the news on Instagram earlier this month, telling fans: “Can’t believe I’m gonna be mincing about on the stage with my beautiful first born child in Nativity! The Musical this Christmas. #choked.”
Dani also shared the news on her own Instagram account and was equally excited, saying: “I am SO excited to be starring alongside my dad… It’s going to be proper Christmassey! See you all there.”
Danny’s playing Hollywood Producer while Dani takes the role of his daughter, Polly Parker, in the musical based on the hit film starring Martin Freeman.
