Series 23

Strictly is back! Join Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman as they welcome 15 new famous faces to the ballroom.

It’s the first live show of Strictly 2025, and our judges Shirley Ballas, Craig Revel Horwood, Motsi Mabuse and Anton Du Beke kick things off with an incredible opening number.

Tess and Claud welcome our couples back to the ballroom, where they perform brand new routines. Whilst they’ll all be aiming for good scores from the Judges, they’re hoping to impress you at home too.

It’s the first results show of the series, and our couples nervously wait to find out the results. There’s a beautiful group routine with our professional dancers and a performance from Zara Larsson.

Dazzling routines, outrageous sets, flamboyant costumes and the occasional dance dis-aaa-ster.

It's time for the dreaded dance-off!
