Strictly Come Dancing (series 8)
Strictly Come Dancing returned for its
eighth series on
BBC One with a
red carpet launch show on 11 September 2010, and the competitive live shows began on 1 October. According to BARB data, this series was the consistently highest-rated of the show to date, peaking at 14.28 million viewers.
Alesha Dixon ,
Len Goodman ,
Craig Revel Horwood , and
Bruno Tonioli all returned as judges.
Five professional dancers from the last series did not return for this series: Darren Bennett , Matthew Cutler , Brian Fortuna , Lilia Kopylova , and Ian Waite . Three new professionals joined this series: Artem Chigvintsev , Jared Murillo , and Robin Windsor . For the eighth series, the set was totally revamped: the backstage room where scores were given was replaced by a tower above the dance floor so that the couples could watch as their teammates performed. During week 8, the live show was transmitted from the Tower Ballroom at the Blackpool Tower .
Bruce Forsyth and Tess Daly returned to present the main show on BBC One . For the results show, Daly was joined by Strictly Come Dancing: It Takes Two presenter Claudia Winkleman .
The celebrities did not know their professional partners until they were introduced to each other at the launch show. The series concluded on 18 December when EastEnders actress Kara Tointon and Artem Chigvintsev were announced as the winners, while television presenter Matt Baker and Aliona Vilani finished in second place, and psychologist Pamela Stephenson and James Jordan finished in third.
The couples dance each week in a live show. The judges score each performance out of ten. The couples are then ranked according to the judges' scores and given points according to their rank, with the lowest scored couple receiving one point, and the highest scored couple receiving the most points (the maximum number of points available depends on the number of couples remaining in the competition). The public are also invited to vote for their favourite couples, and the couples are ranked again according to the number of votes they receive, again receiving points; the couple with the fewest votes receiving one point, and the couple with the most votes receiving the most points.
The points for judges' score and public vote are then added together, and the two couples with the fewest points are placed in the bottom two. If two couples have equal points, the points from the public vote are given precedence. As with the previous series, the bottom two couples have to perform a dance-off on the results show. Based on that performance alone, each judge then votes on which couple should stay and which couple should leave, with Len Goodman , as head judge, having the last and deciding vote .
Couples
This series featured fourteen celebrity contestants.
