Strictly Come Dancing is a popular British television show that has featured several celebrities that dance with their professional dance partners in order to compete in both the Ballroom and the Latin dances. The story behind the title of this show is the suggestion that it’s the continuation of the popular long-running series titled ‘Come Dancing” alongside the allusion to the movie titled Strictly Ballroom. The aforementioned show had made its debut on the BBC One channel in the year 2004. Its fifth series had come to an end in the month of December last year that is the year 2007.
There had been four stand-alone Christmas Specials that had taken place in the year 2004, 2005, 2006 and last but not the least in the year 2007. The fourth Series had later been shown as part of BBC’s line-up that had been featured on the then trial High Definition channel named “BBC HD”. As far as the format of the show is concerned it has been extracted from the format of shows fro the other countries (like for instance “Dancing with the Stars”).
The grand finale of the fifth series tat had been held in the month of December in the year 2007 had been a source of great attraction for the audience. Almost 12 million viewers had been marked that made it one of the most watched shows to be telecasted on TV in that particular year. The format had also been inspired from a modern-dance themed spin-off that had been titled “Strictly Dance Fever”.
Amongst the professional dancers that are almost the same in every year, there are only four of them who have been present in almost all the series. These dancers are Brendan Cole, Anton Du Beke, Erin Boag and last but not the least Camilla Dallerup.
The show has also paired a number of celebrities with some of the finest most professional ballroom dancers who compete against one other week after week in order to impress an entire panel of the judges and also the general audience with the hope of surviving elimination. It is through the results of the telephone polls that the viewers vote for their choice of the contestants that they want to stay. Say for instance there are a total of four contestants who are left, the one who is the judges’ favorite goes on to receive four points, the second most favorite receives three points, and so on and then the results of the viewers’ rankings are also going to be added to the points they have received from the judges.
The profits that are made from the telephone lines had been donated to the Sport Relief in the first series whereas after that they have been donated to the “Children in Need” from the second to the fifth series.
