The first show of the 14th Strictly Come Dancing was all about putting the 15 celebrity contestants with their pro dancers. Now we know who they are…
Strictly Come Dancing took 15 nervous celebrities, sprayed them with fake tan and glitter and put them on a dance floor to meet their pro dance partners.
The series launched from a space ship (okay, not a real one) before a galaxy of stars lined up to meet the pro movers and shakers who will teach them how to move not like Jagger, more like judges Darcey Bussell and Craig Revel Horwood.
Our pictures reveal the entire line-up for this series…
