Strictly Come Dancing Introduces Icons Week

Strictly Come Dancing is set to introduce 'Icons Week' on November 2, celebrating the show's 20th anniversary with routines dedicated to legendary musicians. Announced on the spin-off show It Takes Two, this special week will feature couples performing to songs from their favorite music icons, with a Beyoncé medley planned for the results show on November 3. The show has already seen a reduction in couples, down from 15 to 13 after two eliminations, including a themed Movie Week. The series also includes beloved segments like Blackpool week and Musicals. Viewers can expect dazzling performances as contestants channel their musical heroes, with details on specific songs and icons yet to be unveiled. The announcement follows an empowering launch that celebrated dancer Amy Dowden's return after her battle with breast cancer.
