Off the back of the recent new that hit primetime BBC One show Strictly Come Dancing will return to Blackpool this year despite cutbacks at the corporation, what better time to cast our minds back to last year’s thrilling Blackpool week.
Strictly fever well and truly swept through the resort for last year’s Blackpool Weekend, with fans turning out in their droves to give the BBC show’s stars a real Blackpool welcome as the stars sprinkled their magic on the Blackpool Tower Ballroom.
