The serious business of the main Strictly Come Dancing 2018 competition is over, with documentary presenter Stacey Dooley and professional partner Kevin Clifton lifting the all new Glitterball trophy. Now it's time to relax and raise a mince pie to some festive fun, and we'll tell you how to watch the Strictly Come Dancing Christmas special online - regardless of where in the world you are.
The Strictly Christmas special is always a sequin-studded spectacular, with favourite participants from previous series returning to strut their stuff on the dance floor. The 2018 show sees TV presenter Caroline Flack, Eastenders actor Jake Wood, JLS singer Aston Merrygold, politician Ann Widdecombe (with Anton Du Beke, of course), England cricketer Michael Vaughan and journalist Anita Rani.
Expect the usual array of quicksteps, foxtrots and pasa dobles to try and impress the usual core of judges - Craig Revel Horwood, Darcey Bussell, Bruno Tonioli and Head Judge Shirley Ballas. Hoping to follow in the silky footsteps of previous winners including Katie Derham, Rufus Hound and double champs Jill Halfpenny and Darren Gough.
