Line Of Duty, EastEnders, The Apprentice and Doctor Who are among the TV shows the cast of Strictly Come Dancing will be paying homage to during this year’s very special themed week.
As part of the BBC’s centenary celebrations, this year Strictly has introduced a one-off special in which the couples will be performing routines inspired by some of the broadcaster’s most iconic shows.
The songs and dances being performed in Saturday night’s BBC 100 special have now been announced, and it sounds like fans are in for an absolute treat.
Among the routines to keep an eye out for include a Tango to the Casualty theme tune, a Charleston inspired by Victoria Wood and a Foxtrot to the iconic Julia’s Theme from EastEnders.
Bring. It. On.
