Here’s a recap of who won Strictly Come Dancing plus who was voted off and left in a full recap of the results.
As always, up to the final, Strictly this year was split into separate Saturday night performance and Sunday results shows.
On Saturday nights, Strictly Come Dancing’s remaining celebrity dancers and their professional partners each took to the dancefloor in a bid to impress both the viewers and judges.
In the studio, Anton Du Beke, Shirley Ballas, Motsi Mabuse and Craig Revel Horwood offered up their marks out of 40 while at home viewers could vote either for free online or via the phone.
The online votes were added to the phone votes to give the overall public rankings.
The total viewer votes were in turn combined with the judges’ scores from the latest live show. Together, these decided which two celebs had to perform again for the judges in the results show.
The panel picked which celeb stayed, leaving one to exit the competition. In case of a tied decision, head judge Shirley gave the casting vote.
However for the final it was viewer votes alone that decided the winner, with the result revealed live in the same show.
