Yahoo News Strictly 2023 final routine reveal: Who's dancing what for the Glitterball Trophy?
The final line-up for Strictly Come Dancing 2023 is here.
Strictly Come Dancing is about to crown its winner of the 2023 series - but before anyone lifts the Glitterball Trophy, each couple has three routines to get through.
Every grand final of the BBC One show includes the couple's favourite dance from the series, a previous week's routine picked by the judges for them to improve upon, and a new show dance performance where they'll pull out all the stops to impress.
It's a packed line-up for Saturday night as Bobby Brazier, Ellie Leach and Layton Williams take to the dancefloor for the final time.

Ellie Leach and Vito Coppola
Former Coronation Street star Ellie Leach and her partner Vito Coppola are the favourites to win the competition, but will their choice of three dances see them through to victory?
Leach and Coppola have chosen the American Smooth as their favourite dance, while the judges have decided they would like them to have another go at the Paso Doble and their show dance will be set to a J-Lo megamix soundtrack.
Layton Williams and Nikita Kuzmin
Their toughest competition comes from high scorers West End star Layton Williams and his partner Nikita Kuzmin - who have been the strongest couple in marking, but have been criticised by viewers over Williams' dance experience.
On Saturday, we'll get to see their favourite dance, the Argentine Tango, for a second time, while the judges have asked them to perform their Quickstep again and their show dance is to Ne-Yo's Friend Like Me.
Bobby Brazier and Dianne Buswell
EastEnders star Bobby Brazier and his partner Dianne Buswell might be the grand final outsiders, but they'll be hoping to upset the odds with a carefully chosen programme of dances.
The couple's favourite routine is their Couple's Choice, which Brazier dedicated to his late mum Jade Goody, while the judges have picked their Samba and their show dance sounds like it will be an upbeat number to a La La Land medley.
Who will be named the winners of Strictly 2023? We can't wait to find out.
Strictly Come Dancing airs on BBC One at 7pm on Saturday.
