Zara Phillips is the latest recruit to the Gangnam dance craze.

The royal will use her Olympian equestrian skills to perform the bizarre dance from the chart-topping hit by South Koren star Psy as part of this year's Children In Need celebrations.

Zara will be joined by other figures from the three-day eventing team.

Psy's dance sees him bounding around as though he was straddling a horse and holding the reins, as well as spinning an invisible lasso.

Around 20 figures from Team GB will be taking part in a specially-made video for the annual TV fundraising extravaganza which takes place on November 16.

They include Olympic stars Tom Daley, Rebecca Adlington, Nicola Adams and Louis Smith, who is currently perfecting his own dance moves as a contestant on Strictly Come Dancing. Paralympian heroes David Weir and Ellie Simmonds are also throwing shapes in the video, set to the Basement Jaxx track Do Your Thing.
