STRICTLY Come Dancing has revealed its full Christmas special line-up - and it's going to be a cracker.
Whether you're a sports fan, music aficionado, telly lover or history buff, there's something for everyone.
Here is the treemendous six taking part:
Danny Cipriani
The rugby ace, 36, withdrew from I'm A Celebrity at the last minute after his marriage to Victoria Rose fell apart.
But it hasn't stopped him bagging a prime reality TV slot, and he'll be bringing the heat to the dance floor with pro partner Jowita Przystal.
He said: “I’ve always enjoyed the concept of Strictly Come Dancing, it wasn’t something I ever thought I’d do. After addressing my own ideas and beliefs, I am very much looking forward to expressing myself through dance with no limitations.

"Strictly brings joy to everyone’s living rooms, being a part of that for Christmas Day will be special.”
Tillie Amartey
Doctor Who star Tillie, 20, has played down her dancing ability, but if her moves are half as good as her acting she'll light up Christmas Day.
The TV star has an impressive CV including roles in Waterloo Road and David Walliams' Ratburger, and Strictly will be a nice addition to the credit reel.
She'll be in safe hands with Neil Jones, who is no doubt raring to get to work after missing out on a celeb partner in the current series.
Tillie said: “My family have been avid fans of Strictly since forever so no pressure! The nerves are real, but I am super excited to bring some much-needed joy to the telly while I shimmy and sparkle my two left feet through the Christmas special!”
Keisha Buchanan
Pop star Keisha Buchanan, 39, might have the moves for arena stages, but will she wow the judges?
The Sugababes singer has had a year to remember with the group, including a sold out O2 Arena show, and will top it off by performing with show stalwart Gorka Márquez.
She said: "I am so excited to be taking part, and over Christmas too, my favourite time of the year! I am looking forward to learning some new moves and embracing the dancefloor!”
Dan Snow
TV presenter and best-selling author Dan will be hoping to enter the Strictly history books as a Christmas champ when he dances with Nadiya Bychkova.
Speaking about signing up for the special, he said: “I am absolutely terrified about hitting the dance floor.
"But I love getting out of my comfort zone and I’ve always wanted to learn how to dance properly. So I thought it was now or never!”
Sally Nugent
Sally Nugent is swapping BBC Breakfast's famous red sofa for the Strictly dance floor.
The mum-of-one has been paired up with professional dancer Graziano Di Prima and is hoping the judges will go easy on her.
Speaking about putting her dance shoes on, Sally, 51, said: "I am thrilled and slightly terrified to be taking part in this year’s Strictly Come Dancing Christmas Special.
"I'm hoping the judges will be kind - and filled with Christmas spirit. And I hope everyone watching at home will enjoy a little bit of Strictly magic on Christmas night.”
Jamie Borthwick
EastEnders actor Jamie Borthwick, 29, can't wait for pro Nancy Xu to put him through his paces.
The Jay Brown actor is ready to escape Walford's dark festive drama with some light-footed moves.
He said: "I am so excited to be joining the cast of this years' Strictly Come Dancing Christmas special. From Walford to a Waltz, I can’t wait to learn a new skill and put my dancing to the test.
"I’m hoping to spread Christmas cheer and have a good laugh with my professional dancer…get me on that dancefloor!”
Strictly Come Dancing Christmas special will air on BBC One and BBC iPlayer on Christmas Day.
