Let’s get that house swapping started!
Speaking about the gig, Anna said: “What an honour to be joining the Changing Rooms team, one of my favourite shows from when I first started in TV!
“This series is an absolute classic and I can’t wait to see the designs the legendary Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen and the brilliant Jordan and Russell of 2LG come up with for our homeowners. Let’s get that house swapping started!”
Meanwhile, Laurence added: “Let the games commence!”

Earlier this week, reports suggested Anna was a favourite to fill Davina’s role.
A source told The Sun: “Anna is again a seasoned presenter with a really individual style and a wicked sense of humour.”
It’s believed Stacey Solomon and Emma Willis were also in the running.
When did Changing Rooms last air?
Changing Rooms aired on BBC One between 1996 and 2004.
It saw couples swapping homes with friends or neighbours to decorate one room in each other’s home.
Interior designer Laurence said of the upcoming show: “There’s no room for beige in our homes and, just as it was in the 90s, Changing Rooms is once more the homestyle antidote to Britain’s blues (and greys and taupes, and even Magnolia).”
In addition, he shared: “It’s taken quite a lot of coaxing to get me under the Changing Rooms banner once more.”
Meanwhile, despite appearing in the original incarnation, interior designer Linda Barker won’t return.

Linda previously told ED! she simply didn’t receive an invitation back.
She explained: “I think it’s nice that it’s coming back. I don’t think you could repeat exactly what we had. It’s just one of those things really.
“Yes, of course I’ll still watch. It’ll be really good. I have such fond memories of that show. It was the turning point in my career. It’s been wonderful for me.”
