Strictly Come Dancing is just one week away from its 2025 final, if you can believe it. The show is down to just four couples - and they will all firmly have their eyes on the Glitterball Trophy.
Strictly’s remaining celebrities will be hitting the ballroom floor once again for the semi-final. The live show is due to be broadcast tonight (December 13), with the results show following tomorrow (December 14).
Just three spots are up for grabs in the final, so there is a lot at stake this weekend. It comes after one of the big early favourites was shockingly eliminated in the quarters.
After 12 weeks full with plenty of dance-offs and surprise exits, you might need a reminder of who was in the competition - and who is still in. Here’s all you need to know!
