Strictly Come Dancing is a South African reality dance competition television series produced for SABC2 by Rapid Blue, based on the British show of the same name. It is broadcast live from the Carlton Centre Ballroom, Johannesburg, and it is hosted by Siphiwe Nhlapo. The show premiered in South Africa on SABC2 on Saturday 4 February 2006, at 20:00.

Format

South African celebrities are partnered with professional Latin and Ballroom dancers and must work each week on perfecting a dance routine.

Each week during a live show viewers are asked to vote for their favourite couple, and one couple (with the least votes) is eliminated.

In the season finale, two couples dance off to win the title and a cash prize of R40,000 (R20,000 per partner). The cash prize was first introduced for the third season.

Through sms voting, viewers vote who should stay and who should go, the results of the poll being combined with the ranking of the panel of judges.

For example: with 4 contestants left, the judges' favourite would receive 4 points, 2nd favourite 3 points, and so on, and similarly with the viewers' rankings. The two scores added together make the final score.

Season 4

The fourth season of Strictly Come Dancing aired on SABC2 from 31 January to 20 March 2008, on Thursdays at 19:30. It was won by actor Emmanuel Castis and his partner Lindsey Muckle.

The first part (19:30-20:30) was where the contestants showed off their various dancing talents and the second part (21:30) where the results were revealed. Shot live from the Carlton Hotel Ballroom, the eight-part series was once again hosted by Ian von Memerty and Sandy Ngema.

Dance-off

A new system called the dance-off was introduced in the fourth season. The Dance-Off is performed by the two couples with the lowest scores following the judges' scores and public vote.

After performing their dance again, the judges are asked one-by-one who they would like to save, and the couple with the most votes remains in the competition. If there is a tie, head judge Lilian Phororo has the deciding vote.
