Strictly Come Daning returned to Blackpool on Saturday (November 16) night, a location that has been the hit BBC show's "second home" since 2004.
The Pet Shop Boys opened proceedings with a medley of their songs including It's a Sin, to which the professional dancers and celebrities performed an all in group dance to.
Comedian Chris McCausland and professional dance partner Dianne Buswell were the first couple to take to the floor on Saturday night performing a classical American smooth routine.
It was later revealed they had become the 100th Strictly couple to perform in the Blackpool Tower Ballroom.

The pair were joined at the top by Sarah Hadland and her partner Vito Coppola, who also scored 39.
