If you're upset at the prospect of Strictly Come Dancing finishing this series, then you'll be pleased to know they're bringing back their Christmas special again.

Here's everything we know so far...

What's the format?

What to read next

In this year's cracker of a show, each of the six couples will perform a routine which tells the story of what everyone loves about Christmas in a bid to be crowned Christmas champions 2017.

Hosted by Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman, the show wouldn't be complete without the festive foursome on the judging panel. Craig Revel Horwood, Darcey Bussell and BrunoTonioli will be joined by Head Judge Shirley Ballas in her first appearance on a Strictly Christmas special.

The judges will be on hand to score each couple and spread some cheerful joy, yet it will be down to the studio audience to vote for which dancing duo will win the Strictly Come DancingChristmas Special 2017 and lift the famous Silver Star trophy.

The icing on top of the cake will be a music performance fit for Christmas Day and our couples will be bringing some festive cheer to some very special and deserving people.

When does it air?

The Strictly Come Dancing Christmas special airs on Christmas Day at 6.30pm on BBC One.
