Strictly Come Dancing

British television series

Strictly Come Dancing is a British television programme. It features celebrities dancing with professional dancers. Each week, the expert judges decide which couple will leave the contest. In the final, the public vote for the winner.

There were two series in its first year, 2004. From 2005 onwards, there has been one series per year. Many countries have their own version of the show (see Dancing with the Stars). It was originally presented by Sir Bruce Forsyth from 2004 to 2013. It is currently presented by Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman.
