What time does Strictly Come Dancing start?
The show will be back for another two episodes this weekend. It includes the live show and of course the dreaded results programme.
Before the end of the weekend, two of the stars will face the dance-off - with the risk of going home. Remind yourself of the elimination order so far.
Strictly Come Dancing is set to start at the later time of 6.50pm on Saturday (December 6), following the animated film Robin Robin. It will be a shorter episode, due to the slimmed down cast, and is set to finish at around 8.05pm.
Strictly’s live show will be followed by Michael McIntyre’s The Wheel, it has been confirmed. The episode will run for 1 hour 15 minutes on Saturday.
The results show will follow on Sunday and starts at 7.45pm. It is due to run for approximately 45 minutes and will finish at 8.30pm and is followed by the new Doctor Who spin-off.
