The first live show is almost here! In just one week, the celebrities and their professional dance partners will hit the ballroom floor and perform for the judges for the very first time.

We’re still finalizing some details for the live shows, like the music the couples will dance to, but it’s shaping up to be an incredible episode you won’t want to skip!

This year, Alexis Warr and Julian Collard are joining the professional dancers, and each will be paired with a celebrity contestant. This means Luba Mushtuk, Gorka Márquez, Nancy Xu, Neil Jones, and Michelle Tsiakkas won’t have partners this season.

Strictly Come Dancing continues on Saturday 27th September on BBC One and iPlayer.
