Strictly Come Dancing Christmas special 2022 – open thread

Happy Christmas glitterati! Who will win the silver star – and who is the ghost of Strictly past? Join us to find out

Merry Christmas Strictly glitterati, hope you’re having a peaceful and cosy Christmas Day.

The Strictly Christmas Special starts at 5.10pm today – there’s no liveblog, but we have opened the comments below so you can spread a little comfort and joy among yourselves.

It’s a great festive lineup this year – Nicola Roberts, Larry Lamb, Alexandra Mardell, Rickie Haywood-Williams, Rosie Ramsey and George Webster will also be taking a one-night-only turn around the Strictly dancefloor with their professional partner. There’s also a special performance from the Ghost of Strictly Past, Bruno Tonioli.

Who will win the Strictly Silver Star? Enjoy the show, and season’s greetings to you all. See you in 2023!
