Series chronology |
The seventh series of Strictly Come Dancing commenced on BBC One on 18 September 2009. Bruce Forsyth and Tess Daly returned as presenters together with Craig Revel Horwood, Len Goodman and Bruno Tonioli as judges. Series 5 winner, Alesha Dixon, joined the judging panel, replacing Arlene Phillips.[1] Darcey Bussell will appear as a guest judge towards the end of the show's run.[1]
Series 6 winner Camilla Dallerup, series 4 winner Karen Hardy and Hayley Holt were replaced as professional female dancers by Aliona Vilani, Katya Virshilas and Natalie Lowe.[2] The show on November 7 was filmed from the Blackpool Tower Ballroom for the first time since the Grand Final of series 2.[3]
The show
The couples dance each week in a live show. For the first two weeks, the couples will dance ballroom on Friday and latin on Saturday (the couples have been split in to two groups but not men and women like previous years); from the third week all the couples will dance on Saturday only. Each judge scores them out of ten, giving them a total score out of forty (fifty from Quarter Final onwards). The couples are ranked according to the judges' scores and given points according to their rank, with the lowest scored couple receiving one point, and the highest scored couple receiving the most points (the maximum number of points available depends on the number of couples remaining in the competition). The public are able to vote for their favourite couples, and the couples are ranked again according to the number of votes they receive, again receiving points - the couple with the fewest votes receiving one point, and the couple with the most votes receiving the most points.
The points for judges' score and public vote are then added together, and the two couples with the fewest points are placed in the bottom two (if two couples have equal points, the points from the public vote are given precedence). As with the two previous series, the bottom two couples will have to perform a dance-off. Based on that performance alone, each judge then votes on which couple should stay and which couple should leave, with Goodman (as head judge) having the last and casting vote. Unlike the previous series, there is no results show - instead, there will be a single extended programme on Saturday evenings.[4]
