Launch Show will be 17th of October, at 19:50 PM (after Little Mix: The Search)

Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman present the launch of Strictly Come Dancing 2020. They will be joined in the ballroom by judges Motsi Mabuse, Craig Revel Horwood and Shirley Ballas and 12 brand new celebrities for what promises to be an unforgettable night of dance.

As well as revealing this year’s pairings, there will be two spectacular group routines from the Strictly professionals, a very special music performance from Joel Corry and MNEK, and the return of reigning champion Kelvin Fletcher.

[Strictly Jake]

So excited!!!

[Vanessa]

I hope HRVY can make the line up.
If not, he can always do it next year.
Health comes first.

[Kate!]

Can't wait!!!

[Nicky91]

am curious how it will look like with a different and reduced audience


but tbh i also enjoyed lets dance germany's series this year loads (and that one had no audience so)

Tess and Claudia relive the nights when champions were made and dreams were realised. They are joined by the judges, pros and some well-loved finalists to celebrate the emotions and the incredible routines that have graced the Strictly final. The show will also feature a tribute to 2014 champion Caroline Flack.

also putting it out here, last of best of specials (best of Final) tonight 20:10 PM

[Nicky91]

bump

[Nicky91]

also saw first promo on BBC1 immediately after this best of final special episode




and yes i'm feeling the strictly sparkle myself



who i'm gonna root for, Caroline Quentin

anyone who's paired with Dianne, i adore her

and i am also gonna root for Jason Bell, my reason i mean i always like NFL Stars on DWTS USA anyway so i hope Jason can deliver on the strictly dancefloor, already am liking his personality in his introduction video

[Vanessa]

I think HRVY has Jeanette.
If true, they will be amazing dancing together.
She better not mess this up!

[Nicky91]

if Caroline is with Anton, i would be even more happy

then he has another good one


pls put Giovanni with a dud like Jacqui

I think Giovanni has Maisie.
Anton seems to have Jaqui.
Of course there are just rumours.

[Nicky91]

looking back at the finals

Oti truly is the queen of samba, with both Danny and Kelvin



and ugh smug Ore ''i can't believe it to this day i won'' i said to myself like no and many more people can't either

in all fairness Danny was better than Ore

[Nicky91]

i don't care who dances with whom tbh


as long as Caroline isn't paired with Johannes, i do not trust him, his whole hyperactive ways seem offputting, hence Catherine's early boot, lack of popularity on the show


i think Johannes needs Clara, i think she's a similar sort of BIG personality as he is

[Mitchell]

Ore was a top tier winner, sue me x

his Jive, not fast enough (no way was it best jive ever) since best jive to date is jay and aliona's

also Joanne's choreo with Ore, sooo dull week by week but i guess dull runs in the clifton family

Joanne's only highlight on strictly for me, the crab samba with Scott Mills

He was good, but Danny was better.

week 1 begins 24th of October so next week at 19:25 PM

The costumes are ready, the shoes have been polished and the ballroom eagerly awaits, as Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman host the first of this year’s live shows.

The 12 celebrity and professional dancer pairings take to the dancefloor for their debut performances, hoping they have what it takes to impress the judges and viewers at home.

Their performances will be critiqued and scored by Strictly judges Shirley Ballas, Craig Revel Horwood and Motsi Mabuse, but they will all escape the public vote until next weekend.

Expect entertainment, drama, plenty of first-night nerves and of course lots of dancing - the quest for glitterball glory has begun!
