Get ready for the return of the Strictly Dance-a-Thon
- Published
It's time for the Strictly stars to get their samba on as the Dance-a-Thon returns this weekend!
The remaining celebs and pros will be performing all at the same time as part of the show on 23 November.
The dance-a-thon first appeared on the ballroom competition in 2009, and the last time it featured was in 2018 where the couples all danced the lindy hop.
It's a common format in Ballroom and Latin competitions around the world, and now the celebrities have a chance to show the judges what they're made of.

How does it work?
The celebs and their pro partners will all perform one routine as normal before the Samba-Thon starts.
They'll then all return to dance floor and start dancing the samba as a group.
The judges will watch the whole thing closely and then eliminate couples one-by-one, depending on how good they think they are, until the winning couple is crowned.
The couple's position in the Samb-a-Thon will have an impact on their overall score for the night, so it's important they show off their absolute best moves.
Last time we had a dance-a-thon was a bit of a comedy dance disaaaahster after the score tablets went wrong and messed up the judges' scores !
Who do you think will shimmy to the top of the leaderboard with their Samba? Let us know in the comments below.
