We've had some amazing TV this year - Love Island, Celebrity Big Brother, The X Factor and I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here to name a few, but Strictly Come Dancing has certainly been up there with the best. Much to our disappointment, the 2018 series is now over, with Stacey being crowned the winner.
The final, which took place on Saturday 15th December, featured Ashley Roberts and Pasha Kovalev, Joe Sugg and Dianne Buswell, Faye Tozer and Giovanni Pernice, and Stacey Dooley and Kevin Clifton, with all four pairings giving some amazing performances.

17 of 17Series 17 - Kevin Fletcher
Considering Emmerdale's Kevin Fletcher was a last minute replacement for Made In Chelsea's Jamie Laing, who couldn't participate in the show due to a foot injury, he did incredibly well to win it with Oti Mabuse. Fletcher and Mabuse were given 39 points from the judges for their rumba, 40 points for their showdance and 39 points for their samba.
The 2018 series certainly didn't go down without any controversy. Just weeks into the competition, comedian Seann Walsh and his dance partner Katya Jones were photographed kissing in the street, despite Katya being married to fellow Strictly star Neil Jones.
Whilst Neil was a lot more forgiving after Seann and Katya's apologies, Seann's girlfriend Rebecca Humphries dumped him a Twitter rant.
Despite Seann and Katya being forced to change their dance routine to a less 'sexy' dance, the pair were saved by the public, before later being eliminated in Week Six.
Week 1: No elimination
Week 2: Susannah and Anton
Week 3: Lee and Nadiya
Week 4: Katie and Gorka
Week 5: Vick and Graziano
