Here’s all you need to know about the Strictly Come Dancing 2018 Christmas special tonight.
Once again, following the end of the main series, the Strictly judges will return for one last appearance this year on Christmas Day this evening.
Shirley Ballas, Bruno Tonioli, Darcey Bussell and Craig Revel Horwood will be back on the panel as they cast their critical eyes over the routines.
The theme for the 2018 Strictly Christmas special is ‘fairy tales and making dreams come true’. Each of the six couples will perform a Christmas inspired routine in a bid to be crowned Christmas champions 2018.
Fairy tales that will get the Strictly treatment include Frog Prince, Cinderella, The Snowman, Peter Pan, Pinocchio and the Nutcracker.
The judges will be on hand to score each couple and spread some cheerful joy, yet it will be down to the studio audience to vote for which dancing duo will win the Strictly Come Dancing Christmas Special 2018 and lift the famous Silver Star trophy.
