The dancer continued: "It's such an important dance, it's a statement, and doing it in an arena with 10,000 people live and stopping the music would be quite spectacular, I think. It's one of the most beautiful things I've done on Strictly."

Rose and Giovanni were firm fan favourites

The Italian proved that he was still re-living the fantastic experience of the last series when he shared the first glimpse of his new ink on Saturday.

Giovanni took to his Instagram Stories, where he showed off the tattoo, which consisted of a Glitterball trophy with 'SCD' written through it and two shining stars, one on either side.

Written underneath is "18-12-2021", which represents the day Giovanni and Rose were crowned winners.

The pair have an enviable bond

Giovanni captioned the clip by tagging Rose's Instagram handle alongside the words, "Welcome home!" He also had Queen's hit song We Are The Champions looped in the background and tagged his tattoo artist, Miles Langford from The London Social in Soho.

Rose, who made Strictly history by becoming the first deaf contestant to take part in the show and then go on to win it, has yet to publicly comment on Giovanni's touching tribute.
