Strictly Come Dancing: Songs and dances for 2024 Blackpool special

Sarah Hadland and Vito Coppola - (Guy Levy /BBC/ PA)

Strictly Come Dancing’s Blackpool Week is finally upon us – and the show will be pulling out all the stops for its annual jaunt to the coast. 

This Saturday’s episode (November 16) will air live from Blackpool Tower’s famous ballroom, where the remaining eight couples will be hoping to impress the judges and keep their places in the competition. 

Unfortunately, Shayne Ward won’t be among them as he became the latest celebrity eliminated from the competition in last Sunday’s results show.

As always, we’ll be served up an eclectic range of songs and dance styles, including a cha-cha-cha to Right Said Fred’s I’m Too Sexy and a Couple’s Choice routine set to Padam Padam by Kylie Minogue. 

Another star – who has frequently topped the leader-board – will be taking on the Paso Doble and there’s a Charleston on the schedule, too. 

As if that’s not enough, Saturday’s live show will also include an extra special performance from the Pet Shop Boys. 

See the full list of songs and dances for week nine of Strictly Come Dancing 2024 below: 

Strictly Come Dancing airs on BBC One at 6.45pm on Saturday, November 16.
