Strictly Come Dancing Christmas Special: Gorka Márquez will take to the floor with girlfriend Gemma Atkinson while Joe Sugg and Dianne Buswell reunite as pairings are revealed
The BBC have confirmed the professional dancers hitting the floor for this year's Strictly Come Dancing Christmas Special.
Two real life couples will show off their chemistry for the show which will air on Christmas Day.
Gorka Marquez, who was left out of the professional cast for this year's main series, is teaming up with his real-life partner Gemma Atkinson, after they met on the show two years ago.

Gemma was partnered with Aljaž Škorjanec in 2017, but fell for his fellow pro Gorka, with the pair welcoming their daughter Mia in July.
Another real life couple set to dance for the Christmas trophy are Joe Sugg and Dianne Buswell, who made it to the finals of last year's main show.
Kevin Clifton meanwhile will dance with 20187 celeb favourite Debbie McGee, and Janette Manara will be partnered with Mark Wright, who appeared on the show in 2014.

Strictly Come Dancing returns for an all-star Christmas special as six of the most-loved Strictly stars return to the dance floor for the annual special.
The celebrity lineup was announced earlier this month, with Gemma gushing that she couldn't wait to return to the show that 'changed my life.'

On her return, the radio presenter said: 'I had the absolute best time on Strictly and it completely changed my life.
'I am absolutely overjoyed to be returning to the dancefloor this Christmas with a new challenge, and of course to be back with the gang.'
Each of the six couples will perform a Christmas inspired routine in a bid to be crowned Christmas champions 2019.

Second shot: Chizzy Akudolu was the first celebrity to be eliminated in 2017 after she danced a disappointing Foxtrot with Pasha Kovalev (pictured 2019) but will return to compete
Hosted by Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman, the show wouldn’t be complete without the festive foursome on the judging panel: Craig Revel Horwood, Motsi Mabuse, Bruno Tonioli and Head Judge Shirley Ballas.
The judges will be on hand to score each couple and spread some cheerful joy, yet it will be down to the studio audience to vote for which dancing duo will win the Strictly Come Dancing Christmas Special 2019 and lift the famous Silver Star trophy.
Strictly Come Dancing Christmas special will air on BBC One on Christmas Day.
