Strictly Come Dancing fans couldn’t help but swoon when one beloved winner returned to the BBC One competition.
During Saturday’s (November 18) instalment of the beloved dance competition, the seven remaining contestants danced their hearts out in the Blackpool Tower ballroom. But one surprise contestant the viewers weren’t expecting to see was 2019 winner, Kelvin Fletcher.
After Bobby Brazier and his dance partner received an impressive 35 points out of 40 for their stellar jive, the former Emmerdale star made his shocking appearance. Each week, co-host Claudia Winkleman welcomes a celebrity guest onto the show to read out the terms and conditions.

This week, viewers reunited with the soap star-turned farmer as he explained the various ways viewers could vote for their favourite contestant. It’s fair to say the actor looked nothing short of sensational when he walked through the tinsel curtain.

He opted to wear a red velvet blazer which he paired with a black shirt and matching trousers. After he completed his presenting role, the hunk immediately reunited with his former co-stars Graziano Di Prima and Neil Jones.
Kelvin couldn’t help but pull the pair into a loving hug as Elvis Presley’s hit Jailhouse Rock played in the background. It was at this point that Claudia reminded him: “That music, that was your jive. You did it in here four years ago, does everyone remember?”
The hunk recalled: “It was amazing and what a place, what a show! We still watch it as a family, we absolutely love it.” The former soap star couldn’t help but congratulate the 20-year-old for his impressive routine.

He added: “Well done Bobby, that was fantastic, it’s just great to be here.” The presenter gushed: “Oh thank you, thank you Kelvin. Give it up for Kelvin everybody” as the audience cheered.

Another agreed: “I’m definitely here for Kelvin returning [heart emoji] #Strictly” as a third echoed: “Kelvin Fletcher should on the TV more #Strictly”.
