[@KeiddyCruz]

[@KeiddyCruz]

@@Lynne-ly6bhThank you! 💗

[@lauravision2791]

Eurovision fans far and wide fell out of our chairs when we heard Slo Mo!!

[@veesvoyages]

THIS WAS SO HOT!!! Vito and Jowita brought the FIREEEEEE!!! One of the best opening numbers I've seen in ages!

[@serenam3970]

Insane performance, Jowita is one of a kind, I love her energy and style so much and I just absolutely loved this number ❤

[@mellybeetaylor8177]

That was hot! What a way to kick off Strictly 2024!!🔥🔥

[@meredithgrace4337]

Strictly Come Dancing is back with an amazing first group dance.

[@xxisabel11]

omg jowita and vito were shining in this dance 🌟!!

[@weronikapachocka4075]

Jowita and Vito were on fire!!! 🔥🔥🔥 But I couldnt actually stop looking at Nikita!! He smashed it as well, perfect choreography for him

[@MonikaEskander-cn2bh]

Jowita, Vito and Nikita🔥In my opinion this are one of the best dancers on strictly 😍

[@abs_kuzmin_2010]

I was so happy they used SloMo yes yes yes. The song that should have won Eurovision 2022

[@Lynne-ly6bh]

The dancing, singing, music, costumes, lighting etc etc were fabulous! What a marvellous routine! The dancers are so talented. That’s my weekends sorted until Christmas!!

[@daneshadaniels2051]

Excellent performance by the pros 🎉

[@MsMoem]

What a fantastic dance to kick off the show!! Superb!! :-)

[@mollyb.7834]

Vito's energy 😲😎🥵💣

[@annabarnes5221]

I'm trying to keep track of the songs used in this routine. I got El Pañuelo by Romeo Santos and ROSALÍA, Despechá by ROSALÍA, Maria by Ricky Martin and SloMo by Chanel. there might be more if anyone caught them, such as the guitar instrumental between El Pañuelo and Despechá. I don't know how to place that.

[@KatEtoile]

Thanks for sharing! I think there was also Conga by Gloria Estefan

[@spaghetti_2448]

Yeah, in the part with the red and blue floor.

[@ho6327]

The opening betweeen Vito, Katya and Nancy is brilliant. Katya is so flexible!

[@zxaddictxz]

Katya is a dance goddess. Classical ballet training shows.

[@KeeHart]

The talent is off the scale

[@KateCameron1]

Vito is ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

[@louiseodonoghue7816]

Vito is fantastic ❤

[@Chelsea-ji8mo]

WE FINALLY GOT SLOMO ON STRICTLY OH WE WON!!

[@esorybur]

Bloody AMAZING! Fave opening dance in a good while 😍

[@salutiesse]

Loved the little parts where Gorka, Nikita, Vitó and Johannes were dancing and responding to each other- and Nikita shimmying to Johannes strut was priceless! Carlos's exuberance always makes everything more ebullient too- wish he was part of a couple this year.

[@DezRosswess]

Bring it on! If that's a sign of what's to come this season then we are n for many treats.

[@JKaiser994]

I never thought id see a eurovision song on Strictly but by gawd 😍😍

[@salutiesse]

Lakita last year danced an AT to Tattoo, and Angela and Kai one to Rise Like A Phoenix.

[@85jennyhouston]

I look forward to the pro dances every season and they never disappoint! Vito has such effortless sex appeal and Jowita was like liquid mercury in this routine❤ I love watching it back multiple times to appreciate what all the dancers are doing in isolation. Carlos, Jojo, Nancy and Dianne are always terrific and it's SO lovely to have Alijaz and Amy back this year! I can't wait to see what else they've been working on for the 20th 🎉

[@rafaelyaguaro2842]

THEY DID JORGEOUS MOVE XD! I live for it

[@megsmarsden9388]

this is probably the best pro routine

[@anitafrench2079]

Amazing loving it

[@inspirehim]

This was a fun first episode. It would be nice if BBC Strictly Come Dancing would upload Sarah & Vito's QuickStep that was missed when the other dances were uploaded. I'd love to see it.

[@MarkReynolds-c2o]

Wow what start to the 20th year and the professional dance was a fitting start to the new series and the celebrities who danced later made it a fantastic start to the new series and looks like it going to be one of the best years.

[@YvonneDeboer-g8v]

Nikita 🔥 and Vito and jowita 🔥

[@WilliamOBrien-s8x]

Best line up ever well done all

[@debrahouston1374]

Loved it!! Perfection all the way!!!!!

[@user-gp9es3rd3e]

I really loved this dance! Non-stop dance from the start

[@lesleydrury5360]

This was such a brilliant dance! Nikita, Vito and Jowita are the best pros by far in my opinion and i think it shows with how much they tend to lead the pro dances these days! Starting to feel like Neil is just there now though, even on the pro tour he seemed to be in the background a lot.

[@keenahockey9682]

Absolutely exceptional

[@SS-pr1xe]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@AbigailBrown-wk7xl]

Unreal ❤❤❤❤

[@plestrange511]

Absolute fire!!! 🔥🔥❤

[@user-gp9es3rd3e]

Fabulous

[@claudineahmad6214]

It sounded like dancing with the stars with the music and one of the singers

[@michellegarner1966]

All amazing but jowita and nikita are definitely my faves ❤

[@defiantlypinki1107]

❤❤❤❤

[@nonondriessen]

Impressive and Festive Opening. It would be nice to have some spotlight on the orchestra and vocalists as well.

[@hannahm6497]

Um they do, this is just focussed on the dancers.

[@danyser9]

Vito, pazzesco ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

[@AhmedMoustafa2874]

[@Molliesvlogs933]

Yes boys slo mo got heard

[@sandragriffiths9692]

Too many to look at, all were wonderful

[@zxaddictxz]

Wow, amazing opening number. SCD back to its good old self. Pure dancing joy! SCD pros at their best (but please someone teach Nancy about the proper frame; hers is an embarrassment for a pro).

[@zahra9813]

What’s the name of the song they danced to at the end? 🤔🤔🤔 I tried to Shazam it but nothing came up. Thanks.😎

[@xreichenx2768]

How dare they not put Vito on the main show! 😁

[@AshleighLuckhurst]

They did 😅

[@kmr1157]

Jowita and Pete are well matched. Both love themselves

[@esorybur]

Cheer up 🤣

[@AimeeTurner-un1mi]

It’s called performing babe x

[@Blanccccc-2324]

VITO IS SLAY

[@morgengouldthorpe8690]

Nikita and Vito 😍😍😍 Nikita's name is the same as my middle name lol....my favourite girl is Dianne....sorry Jowita lovers 😬

[@alcidesapj]

Channel baby

[@alittlechese2567]

I lost my shit when SloMo started-

[@ricka684]

Gutted that there is no same-sex partnership this year (why not?), I hope that the pros will make up for that during this series by performing some same-sex routines....

[@tango2913]

WHERE IS KAI???!

[@bridiesmith5110]

It was dreadful and went on to long.

[@AhmedMoustafa2874]

I am sorry you lost "Gazianooooooooooooooo" he was amazing and charismatic I remember Havana 2018 and how he was like a legendary dancer

[@nadiarobertshaw]

The American dancing with the stars is so much better than the UK. You can tell they have a greater budget. Over the years with strictly it’s become obvious the budget is wavering in my opinion.

[@ho6327]

I completely disagree. Strictly has better set design.The lightings and computer graphics design are supurb. Professionals group numbers are far more exciting with wide variey. The live bands and singers are brilliant. The judges are more interesting and the hosts are funnier. Dancing with stars may have greater budget but there is no Blackpool Tower Ballroom.

[@Ibyn925]

⁠@@ho6327I agree with everything you said!! I watch both shows, and strictly is so much better in my opinion. I also like the professionals way more on strictly!
