'''''Strictly Come Dancing''''' is a [[United Kingdom|British]] [[television show]], featuring celebrities with professional dance partners competing in [[Ballroom dance|Ballroom]] and [[Latin dancing|Latin]] dances. The title of the show suggests a continuation of the long-running series ''[[Come Dancing]]'', with an allusion to the film ''[[Strictly Ballroom]]''. |
|||
{{WikiProject Journalism}} |
|||
The show has run on [[BBC One]] since 2004. A fifth series finished in December 2007, and there have been four stand-alone Christmas Specials, in 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2007. Series four was also shown as part of the BBC's line-up on its trial High Definition channel, [[BBC HD]]. |
|||
Is there a source for saying he went to Terenure College? I can't find one and [http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qn4153/is_20040617/ai_n12086912 this article] doesn't list it among his schools. [[User:Irlchrism|Irlchrism]] 14:23, 17 March 2006 (UTC) |
|||
The format has been exported to other countries (see ''[[Dancing with the Stars]]''). The final of the fifth series in December 2007 attracted an audience of over 12 million viewers, making it one of the highest watched shows on TV that year. The format has also inspired a modern-dance themed spin-off ''[[Strictly Dance Fever]]''. |
|||
==The Accused== |
|||
I was surprised to search the article and find no mention of this documentary. Why was it not included? I managed to find some info on this on the BBC's Panorama section and have included a link. Maybe there should be more, but all I can find at the moment are various transcripts. I think it merits a mention. [[User:abdullahazzam|abdullahazzam]] |
|||
The professional dancers are usually the same each year, although only four have taken part in every series - [[Brendan Cole]], [[Anton Du Beke]], [[Erin Boag]] and [[Camilla Dallerup]]. |
|||
==Bibliography== |
|||
The list of published works needs to be compiled into a proper bibliography. Templates exist for just this purpose. I will be attempting to compile Keane's books into some kind of standardised format as it may make them easier to reference. [[User:abdullahazzam|abdullahazzam]] |
|||
==Format== |
|||
Fergal Keane has had a hand in writing three or four more books not mentioned on the current list, plus a couple of audio books. These books should be added to published works, with the audio books in 'cite audio' format. [[User:abdullahazzam|abdullahazzam]] |
|||
The show pairs a number of [[celebrities]] with professional [[ballroom dancers]] who each week compete against each other in a competition to impress a panel of judges and the viewing public in order to survive potential elimination. Through a telephone poll, 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, and so on, and similarly with the viewers' rankings.<ref>{{ cite web | url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/strictlycomedancing/howtovote/terms.shtml | title=Strictly Come Dancing - How to vote | publisher=[[BBC]] | accessdate=2008-01-05 }}</ref> The profits from the telephone lines were donated to [[Sport Relief]] in series 1, and to [[Children in Need]] from series 2 to 5. |
|||
The show is broadcast live on BBC One on Saturday evenings, and it is presented by [[Bruce Forsyth]] and [[Tess Daly]]. (For some of the second series, [[Natasha Kaplinsky]] stood in temporarily for Tess Daly while she took maternity leave). The judging panel consists of [[Bruno Tonioli]], [[Arlene Phillips]], [[Len Goodman]] and [[Craig Revel Horwood]]; Goodman and Tonioli commute weekly between Hollywood and London to judge both the American and British versions of the show simultaneously.. Each judge gives the performance a mark out of ten, giving an overall total out of forty. The voice-over announcer is [[Alan Dedicoat]]. During series four, an hour long highlight show was shown on Sundays at 7pm on BBC Two, and during series five, the results show moved to Sunday evenings, instead of being broadcast live later on Saturday evening. |
|||
== OBE honorary, or...? == |
|||
As of series four, coaches are [[Jaclyn Spencer]] and [[Chris Marques]] (aka [[Cuban Groove]]) for [[Salsa (dance)|Salsa]] and [[Mambo (dance)|Mambo]], and [[Jenny Thomas]] and [[Ryan Francois]] for [[Swing (dance)|Swing]] and [[Jive]]. The [[Argentine Tango]] coaches in Series three were [[Flavia Cacace]] and [[Vincent Simone]], both of whom have subsequently competed in the show. |
|||
Is his OBE honorary, or is he a "dual"? I can find no mention of the former, numerous source simply say he has an OBE. [[User:Alai|Alai]] 17:33, 7 February 2007 (UTC) |
|||
The BBC television singing talent competition ''[[Just the Two of Us]]'' copied the format of ''Strictly Come Dancing''. Splash (a UK production company) and the [[European Broadcasting Union|EBU]] created the [[Eurovision Dance Contest]] transmitted on the [[BBC]] and in other countries in 2007. This is not part of the ''Strictly Come Dancing'' format because it is instead modelled on the Eurovision Song Contest, but with dancing instead of singing. |

===Dance Off=== |

"unc·tu·ous /ˈʌŋktʃuəs/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[uhngk-choo-uhs] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation |
|||
Since Series 5, a new system has been introduced called the ''Dance Off''. 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 Len Goodman has the deciding vote. |

–adjective |

1. characterized by excessive piousness or moralistic fervor, esp. in an affected manner; excessively smooth, suave, or smug." It seems to sum up his style nicely. Every dying child, a photo opportunity. The article hardly reflects his awful, solipsistic approach to the news. --[[User:OhNoPeedyPeebles|OhNoPeedyPeebles]] ([[User talk:OhNoPeedyPeebles|talk]]) 19:11, 27 March 2008 (UTC) |

=== Strictly Come Dancing: It Takes Two === |
|||
{{main|Strictly Come Dancing: It Takes Two}} |
|||
During the run of ''Strictly Come Dancing'', ''Strictly Come Dancing: It Takes Two'' airs each week night on [[BBC Two]], hosted by [[Claudia Winkleman]]. It features reviews of the performances during the previous Saturday show, and interviews with and training footage of the couples preparing for the next show. The judges and other celebrities also provide their opinions on how the couples are doing. ''It Takes Two'' replaces ''Strictly Come Dancing on Three'', hosted by [[Justin Lee Collins]], which ran on [[BBC Three]] during the first series. [[BBC Two Scotland]] airs the programme on four nights only, running locally-produced [[Scottish Gaelic|Gaelic-language]] programming on Thursdays instead. |

=== Series 5 === |

{{main|Strictly Come Dancing (Series 5)}} |
|||
The fifth series of ''Strictly Come Dancing'' began on BBC One on 29 September 2007, with Bruce Forsyth and Tess Daly returning as presenters. For the first time, the line up of professionals was unchanged from the previous series. The first programme was a catch-up show and preview to the new series, before the start of the competition on 6 October, which ran for 12 weeks. The show featured 14 new celebrities, who were paired with 14 professional dancers. In a change to the previous format, the results show was recorded on Saturday and broadcast on Sunday, rather than shown live later on Saturday. In addition to this, the two couples who were at the bottom of the table after the viewers' vote were subject to a dance-off, where they reprised their routine, for the judges to decide who left. Head Judge [[Len Goodman]] had the casting vote in case of a tie. The series raised just over a million pounds for Children in Need <ref>{{ cite web | url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/strictlycomedancing/news/2008/01/09/51953.shtml | title=Children in Need proceeds |accessdate=2008-01-19 }}</ref> |

===2006 Christmas Special=== |
|||
The Christmas special in 2006 featured stars from the third and fourth series going head to head to perform their highest-scoring dances. The theme of the programme was black and white, so whether it was wintry white gowns, the little black dress or top hat and tails, the dancers and the dance floor were decked in black and white, setting the stage for some show-stopping performances. |
|||
It was a pre-recorded show shown on [[Christmas Day]] on BBC One. The couples who took part were: |

Strictly Come Dancing: It Takes Two |
Strictly Come Dancing is a British television show, featuring celebrities with professional dance partners competing in Ballroom and Latin dances. The title of the show suggests a continuation of the long-running series Come Dancing, with an allusion to the film Strictly Ballroom.
The show has run on BBC One since 2004. A fifth series finished in December 2007, and there have been four stand-alone Christmas Specials, in 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2007. Series four was also shown as part of the BBC's line-up on its trial High Definition channel, BBC HD.
The format has been exported to other countries (see Dancing with the Stars). The final of the fifth series in December 2007 attracted an audience of over 12 million viewers, making it one of the highest watched shows on TV that year. The format has also inspired a modern-dance themed spin-off Strictly Dance Fever.
The professional dancers are usually the same each year, although only four have taken part in every series - Brendan Cole, Anton Du Beke, Erin Boag and Camilla Dallerup.
Format
The show pairs a number of celebrities with professional ballroom dancers who each week compete against each other in a competition to impress a panel of judges and the viewing public in order to survive potential elimination. Through a telephone poll, 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, and so on, and similarly with the viewers' rankings.[3] The profits from the telephone lines were donated to Sport Relief in series 1, and to Children in Need from series 2 to 5.
The show is broadcast live on BBC One on Saturday evenings, and it is presented by Bruce Forsyth and Tess Daly. (For some of the second series, Natasha Kaplinsky stood in temporarily for Tess Daly while she took maternity leave). The judging panel consists of Bruno Tonioli, Arlene Phillips, Len Goodman and Craig Revel Horwood; Goodman and Tonioli commute weekly between Hollywood and London to judge both the American and British versions of the show simultaneously.. Each judge gives the performance a mark out of ten, giving an overall total out of forty. The voice-over announcer is Alan Dedicoat. During series four, an hour long highlight show was shown on Sundays at 7pm on BBC Two, and during series five, the results show moved to Sunday evenings, instead of being broadcast live later on Saturday evening.
As of series four, coaches are Jaclyn Spencer and Chris Marques (aka Cuban Groove) for Salsa and Mambo, and Jenny Thomas and Ryan Francois for Swing and Jive. The Argentine Tango coaches in Series three were Flavia Cacace and Vincent Simone, both of whom have subsequently competed in the show.
The BBC television singing talent competition Just the Two of Us copied the format of Strictly Come Dancing. Splash (a UK production company) and the EBU created the Eurovision Dance Contest transmitted on the BBC and in other countries in 2007. This is not part of the Strictly Come Dancing format because it is instead modelled on the Eurovision Song Contest, but with dancing instead of singing.
Dance Off
Since Series 5, a new system has been introduced called the Dance Off. 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 Len Goodman has the deciding vote.
Strictly Come Dancing: It Takes Two
During the run of Strictly Come Dancing, Strictly Come Dancing: It Takes Two airs each week night on BBC Two, hosted by Claudia Winkleman. It features reviews of the performances during the previous Saturday show, and interviews with and training footage of the couples preparing for the next show. The judges and other celebrities also provide their opinions on how the couples are doing. It Takes Two replaces Strictly Come Dancing on Three, hosted by Justin Lee Collins, which ran on BBC Three during the first series. BBC Two Scotland airs the programme on four nights only, running locally-produced Gaelic-language programming on Thursdays instead.

Series 5
The fifth series of Strictly Come Dancing began on BBC One on 29 September 2007, with Bruce Forsyth and Tess Daly returning as presenters. For the first time, the line up of professionals was unchanged from the previous series. The first programme was a catch-up show and preview to the new series, before the start of the competition on 6 October, which ran for 12 weeks. The show featured 14 new celebrities, who were paired with 14 professional dancers. In a change to the previous format, the results show was recorded on Saturday and broadcast on Sunday, rather than shown live later on Saturday. In addition to this, the two couples who were at the bottom of the table after the viewers' vote were subject to a dance-off, where they reprised their routine, for the judges to decide who left. Head Judge Len Goodman had the casting vote in case of a tie. The series raised just over a million pounds for Children in Need [7]

In July 2008 it was reported that current EastEnders cast members were banned from taking part in the competition due to the length of the series. [11]
The sixth series began on 13 September with a behind-the-scenes look at the new series, followed by the first live show on 20 September.[12]
