Strictly Come Dancing 2024 LIVE: Contestants including Pete Wicks and Tasha Ghouri to perform for the first time tonight --[Reported by Umva mag]

Excitement is at fever pitch as Strictly celebs prepare to waltz onto the dance floor! Tonight, 15 celebrity contestants and their professional partners will perform for the first time, kicking off this year’s competition.

The show is hoping to bounce back from last week’s ratings slump, which hit a historic low during the pairing reveal. This comes after a summer of scandal that saw popular pros Giovanni Pernice and Graziano Di Prima leave the show following bullying allegations.

Tonight’s routines have been revealed, and the dance floor will be heating up with three Cha Chas, two Foxtrots, two Tangos, two Sambas, and a Viennese Waltz.

Viewers are already buzzing about the sizzling chemistry between EastEnders star Jamie Borthwick, 30, and pro dancer Michelle Tsiakkas, tipping them as early favourites to win the coveted Glitterball trophy.

Also taking to the floor for the first time are celebs Pete Wicks, Tasha Ghouri, Chris McCausland, and Nick Knowles.

The Strictly judges — Shirley Ballas, Craig Revel Horwood, Motsi Mabuse and Anton Du Beke — will be armed with their paddles, ready to hand out the scores. Will there be a perfect 10, or some classic scathing remarks from Craig?

Strictly Come Dancing airs tonight at 7pm on BBC One.
