It's hard to believe but 13 weeks have flown by and the Strictly Come Dancing 2023 final is now nearly here. On Saturday night (December 16) the final three couples will take to the ballroom floor for one last time.
There were 14 celebrities who signed up for the BBC One dance contest this year and now only Ellie Leach, Layton Williams and Bobby Brazier are left in the competition alongside their respective professional dance partners Vito Coppola, Nikita Kuzmin and Dianne Buswell.
They'll each dance three times each - their favourite from the series, a dance from the series picked for them by the judges and a ‘showdance’ that can show off everything they have learnt in the past 13 weeks - in what will be an epic finale of Strictly 2023 in the hope of winning over the public before one of them is crowned this year's champions.

This year's winner will be decided by viewers' votes with the judges' scores usually only for guidance only. At the time of writing, with hours to go until the last episode of the series, it is Ellie and Vito who are predicted to take the title and the Glitterball trophy this year.
Data from William Hill Vegas has revealed Ellie be by far the most popular selection to win the competition. The former Coronation Street star has attracted a whopping 71 percent of the bookmaker's total stakes received in the outright winner market since the conclusion of last weekend's semi-finals, making her the clear choice with the public to win series 21 of the beloved BBC show ahead of Layton (17%) and Bobby (10%).
