This live version lost none of the glitz and glamour of the TV series, with elegant dresses, sparkly tops and a smattering of sequins.

Celebrities from past years of the BBC celebrities returned to the floor with their professional partners..

We were wowed as the couples danced a ballroom, the highlight definitely being Gethin Jones and Flavia Cacace's waltz which brought a tear to the eye.

Flavia The second half allowed to be dancers to show off their Latin skills with the most polished dancing being Jill Halfpenny and Darren Bennett "one factor" jive.

However the most entertaining dance of the night had to be Julian Clary and Lilia Kopylova's samba.

It may have been a "dance disaster" but my jaw ached from laughing so much at this camp yellow canary with maracas.

We were also treated to some group dances and a show dance by the professionals. A fantastic night!
