What time is the Strictly Come Dancing Grand Final on TV and BBC iPlayer?

Watch the Strictly Come Dancing 2025 Grand Final on BBC One and BBC iPlayer from 7pm on Saturday 20 December.

The show begins with a dazzling group routine from our professional dancers and this year’s finalists, before they each perform three times in a bid to be your winners. They revisit a previous routine, having had a masterclass with the judges, perform a spectacular show dance and then take to the floor with their favourite dance from the series. Members of the Strictly Class of 2025 also return to the dance floor one last time for a fabulous group number.

Your votes alone will decide who walks away with the Glitterball, as the judges' scores are purely for guidance.

On what is set to be a momentous night in the ballroom, who will be your champions?
