Strictly Come Dancing 2025 Grand Final Songs and Dances

Here’s the full list of song and dances performed in the 2025 Grand Final!

Ladies and gentlemen, your 2025 champions are Karen Carney and Carlos Gu

Well done to runners up Amber Davies and Nikita Kuzmin, George Clarke and Alexis Warr what an incredible season it has been. Not sure we can wait until next year – luckily we don’t have to as we have our fabulous Dancing With The Stars Weekends to look forward – one with the champion Carlos Gu! Find out more here.

The grand final was as promised FAB-U-LOUS. We enjoyed seeing all of the Strictly 2025 cast back on the dance floor as they each had their time to shine in the group dance. Everyone Got Up as Five took us back to the 90’s true boyband style.

Following three routines from each of the final couples Carlos and Karen were crowned 2025 champions.

The scores were tight and the praise high but it was the public vote that decided the winners. What a season. Roll on 2026!
