Strictly final 2025 LIVE: Karen Carney, Amber Davies and George Clarke to battle for the Glitterball trophy

There's a massive outpouring of love for Tess and Claudia as they prepare to host the last final. And we've glimpsed Tess' family there cheering her on. So sweet!

They're in the building! After a gorgeous pro routine, the finalists descended onto the dancefloor on a sparking chandelier. In just a couple of hours, one of these three will have lifted the Glitterball!

The final will be starting in just 15 mins, and fans will be firmly seated for two hours and ten minutes, with it due to end at 21.10.

During that time, each finalist will perform three dances, and there will also be a special group dance from the returning contestants. We're sure there'll be other goodies throughout the show!

Each couple will perform three times in a bid to win the final public vote. Two of the dances fans will have seen before, but the showdance will be an entirely new creation.

Amber's showdance is to Rain on Me by Ariana Grande and Lady Gaga, while George's is set to the tune of Human by The Killers and Karen will be performing hers to Inner Smile by Texas.

As for their previous dances, Amber and Nikita will be dancing their paso doble and jive, George is recreating his Viennese waltz and paso doble, while Karen is reprising her Argentine tango and jive.
