Last year the Strictly Come Dancing Children In Need line up was an Olympic special while this year it’s all about Blue Peter!

Six well-loved Blue Peter presenters from the past 60 years entered the glitz and glamour of the ballroom as Mark Curry, Diane-Louise Jordan, Anthea Turner, Tim Vincent, Konnie Huq and Radzi Chinyanganya.

They joined forces with the Strictly professional dancers in a bid to win the Pudsey Glitter Ball trophy for BBC Children in Need.
