Now you can relive Red Button commentaries from the past weeks on the Strictly Come Dancing website.
In week one, Katy Brand graced our screens with her comedic view on the couples first performances. Then, in week two Strictly finalist Pamela Stephenson gave us her unique insight into the show. And in week three Henry Winkler AKA 'The Fonz' stopped by to share who he thought was "aaaaaaaa-ce" from this year's line-up.
And there'll be more fun observations from special guests in the weeks ahead.

This blog is about what the ´óÏó´«Ã½ does online in the UK, and this post is specifically about the domestic red button service, so questions about getting ´óÏó´«Ã½ TV programmes outside the UK aren't really on-topic here. Sorry.
