Strictly's Rose and Giovanni's ballroom return leaves viewers close to tears

Strictly Come Dancing viewers declared they were left 'an emotional wreck' as reigning champions Rose Ayling-Ellis and Giovanni Pernice returned to the ballroom.

Before Giovanni found out which celeb he was dancing with this year, he and EastEnders actress Rose showed the class of 2022 how it's done, by taking to the floor to perform a stunning Viennese Waltz to Alicia Keys' Fallin', a dance that served them very well on their way to victory last year.

Rose and Giovanni will go down in Strictly history as one of the show's most popular couples of all time, thanks to their triumphant run on the show last year, which included their instantly iconic Couple's Choice, the routine that saw them dance to 10 seconds of complete silence in honour of the deaf community.
