STRICTLY Come Dancing is BACK and fans of the hit BBC have been on the edge of their seats waiting for it to dance back to screens.
The show kicked off last night with celebrities including Will Mellor and Kym Marsh as part of the full line-up.
And we found out who the 15 brand new celebrities will be paired with for the 2022 series, which will see judges Shirley Ballas, Craig Revel Horwood and Motsi Mabuse and Anton Du Beke return.
There are lots of exciting pairings, including last year’s winner, Giovanni Pernice, taking to the dance floor with TV personality Richie Anderson as a same-sex couple.
Now, the first songs the pairings will be dancing to have been revealed too ahead of Saturday night’s live show.
