  • Strictly Come Dancing (Sometimes shortened to Strictly or SCD) is a British television show, featuring celebrities with professional dance partners competing in Ballroom and Latin dances.
  • Strictly Come Dancing was created in 2004 and began to be broadcast on Saturday nights on BBC One. The basic format comprises of well-known celebrities who are in the public eye competing against each other with professional partners in Latin and Ballroom dances to win the title of SCD Champion. Every week, each couple learns a new dance, then performs it on a live show. The judges score it, but they only hold half of the final say, for the Great British Public get to vote in a telephone poll. Whichever two couples are in the bottom two after this stage must dance again in a dance-off to impress the judges, who then save their favourite dancer. By the final, only 2 or 3 dancers remain (this number depends on whether anyone drops out) and the winner is decided entirely by the public! The show was incredibly popular from the beginning and has been exported to thirty other countries; most notably American version, Dancing With The Stars. In the last few years, it has attracted over 12,000,000 viewers and in 2008, won an award for the Most Popular Talent Show at the National Television Awards, beating X Factor to the prize.

  • Strictly Come Dancing is a ballroom dancing show made by the BBC. In 2007 it was voted the 'Worst Programme Ever Made' by its presenter Bruce Forsyth.
  • This entry discusses the British version of Strictly, a show known under its U.S. version as Dancing With the Stars. There are several other versions, which can go into their own entries. The show debuted in 2004. Now (2011) on its ninth season, it's a Celebrity Talent Show in which 14 celebrities are paired up with professional dancers, the latter of whom have to teach the former how to dance. They dance each week and one couple is voted off each week via a combination of judges' scores and public voting until the final three compete in the final. Each dance is marked out of ten by the four judges who consist of: * Craig Revel Horwood - the nastiest and most brutally honest of the four judges. Likes anything innovative or unusual. * Len Goodman - the head judge and has a tendency to be nicer, although he is a traditionalist. * Alesha Dixon - the 2007 champion and the most sympathetic judge. * Bruno Tonioli - generally quite generous, flamboyant and Camp Gay (Craig is bisexual, but it's less obvious with him). Until 2009, Arlene Philips was a judge, but was replaced with Alesha Dixon, much to the disgust of news hacks the land over. A fifth judge, in the form of former prima ballerina Darcey Bussell was also added for the quarter finals onwards for that year only. It has been announced that Dixon is jumping ship for Britain's Got Talent, meaning a new judge will take over in 2012. Some recurring types of contestant appear: * Late-middle-aged male TV presenter who usually goes out in the first couple of rounds. Unless we're talking about John Sergeant, who survived nine rounds due to the public vote, despite low judge markings and active statements by them that he should go, before sensationally pulling out of the 2008 contest on 19 November. * "Lads' mag favourite" female who does quite well. * Medium-fame female singer. * Well-known, somewhat hunky, sportsman. * Christmas Cake older actress. * Actor or Actresses from a soap opera (generally Eastenders or Coronation Street). May overlap with any other categories. The winners to date are: * Series 1 (spring 2004): Natasha Kaplinsky, beating Christopher Parker * Series 2 (autumn 2004): Jill Halfpenny, beating Denise Lewis and Julian Clary * Series 3 (2005): Darren Gough, beating Colin Jackson and Zoe Ball * Series 4 (2006): Mark Ramprakash, beating Matt Dawson * Series 5 (2007): Alesha Dixon, beating Matt Di Angelo * Series 6 (2008): Tom Chambers, beating Rachel Stevens and Lisa Snowdon * Series 7 (2009): Chris Hollins, beating Ricky Whittle * Series 8 (2010): Kara Tointon, beating Matt Baker and Pamela Stephenson * Series 9 (2011): Harry Judd, beating Chelsee Healey and Jason Donovan
