Kelly Brook has signed up to be a judge on a Dirty Dancing-themed reality show, the Press Association reports.

Brook will replace Jennifer Ellison on Dirty Dancing: The Time of Your Life, a show that follows eight couples who look to emulate Johnny and Baby from the 1987 film and win a contract with dance agency Bloc.

The show is filmed at the Mountain Lake Hotel Resort in Virginia, which doubled as Kellerman's, the fictional mountain retreat in the Patrick Swayze film.

"Dirty Dancing is one of my favourite films and I can't wait to get to Kellerman's, carry the watermelon and learn the rules of Dirty Dancing," Brook said.

"While raw dance talent is essential, I will be looking for that magic chemistry in our couples that will make the dance floor sizzle."
