Strictly fans go wild after show winner returns to the dance floor
STRICTLY fans went wild after show winner Kelvin Fletcher returned to the dance floor tonight.
The actor - who is best known for playing Andy Sugden on Emmerdale - was crowned winner of the BBC show alongside partner Oti Mabuse in 2019.
Four years on and Kelvin travelled to Blackpool to appear on this evening's epsiode.
After Bobby Brazier's performance, he joined the cast upstairs with Claudia Winkleman to tell the viewers the voting terms and conditions.
"Welcome our 2019 Strictly champion, Kelvin Fletcher!," Claudia said.
The Strictly cast were over the moon to see the show legend as they all gave him huge hugs.

Those watching at home were also just as happy to see him back on their screens.
One said: "Kelvin Fletcher on a Saturday during strictly? Babe just rip open your top and feed me grapes already."
Another added: "Kelvin Fletcher is back!"
"Welcome back Kelvin Fletcher, the 2019 champion of #Strictly ! #StrictlyComeDancing," a third added.
Kelvin was a last-minute replacement for injured reality star Jamie Laing, who then took part in the show the following year.
After he was crowned winner, he admitted that he felt "guilty" about how much time he was forced to spend away from his loved ones.
The soap star told Hello! magazine at the time: "I'm going on holiday next week with my family for just a few days.
"I've felt a little bit guilty being away from them so I definitely want to take them away and just see them and hold them."
