From the sparkling costumes and enthusiastic moves to every awkward step, the stars’ performances will be analysed. A able hosts Sonia Kruger and Daryl Somers are back, along with new judges Craig Revel Horwood and Sharna Burgess to encourage the competitors’ inner dancer.

Kevin McCloud has seen a lot of houses in his more than 20 years as presenter of this aspirational architecture series, but none are more memorable than tonight’s spectacular failure. The bemused and sympathetic host obviously couldn’t resist the invitation to see what has transpired at North Devon’s enormous seafront spectacle, which saw Edward Short say goodbye to millions of pounds, as well as his marriage. More than 10 years after visiting the un nished “dream” aproject, he returns to fate. It’s a remarkable story of excess, but also one of optimism and hope in the face of astonishing nancial disaster.
