BBC Strictly Come Dancing 2024: What time it's on tonight and week one's dances and songs
The celebrities are partnered up and the glitter has been applied which can only mean one thing - BBC Strictly Come Dancing returns to our screens tonight.
For the first live show of the 2024 series, the dancing competition is set to grace our screens this evening (Saturday, September 21). Last weekend was the first programme, but this was a pre-recorded episode showing the celebrity contestants partnered up with their professional counterparts.
Tonight, the 15 new Strictly couples will perform together for the first time and for judges' comments and scores for the first time too. However, they won't receive votes from fans at home just yet, the Manchester Evening News reports.
