Strictly's Janette and Aljaz announce exciting new project
Strictly Come Dancing stars Aljaž Škorjanec and Janette Manrara have announced a new project together: a 15-date tour for 2025.
The husband-and-wife professional dancers will hit the road next year for the A Night to Remember tour, which promises to be their biggest show yet.
Back by a host of singers, dancers, and a big band, the two will perform to songs both modern and from the Great American Songbook.
