So now the series is over I'm looking forward to the live tour. Mum surprised me with tickets at our strictly final party tonight, I'm so excited! Haven't been in a couple of years. Seems like a good line up!
Also is stage door still a thing? I remember waiting there last time and meeting a few of the professionals

I haven't been to the tour since it stopped coming to Belfast.

Also I was there 4 times and most of the dancers come to the stage door for pics and autographs.

I'm tempted to see Danny & Oti dance together again, but it's hideously expensive even for the rubbish seats. When I used to go and sat in the dancefloor seats it was a lot of fun, but I'm much less invested in the show than I was back then.

I'll probably just go and see the various tours the professional dancers are doing next year instead.

I've been to the tour for many years now, in Newcastle, and often you do manage to meet some of the celebrities at the staged doors. It's a great show! I look forward to it every year!

Really looking forward to NOT seeing Ed. ( he's on the tour but not appearing in Manchester. Oh Ed, you spoil us )

Going to Manchester too, though possibly by myself. Also I feel a little bad but I was kinda happy with no Ed , plus I really like Judge Rinder so awesome we're getting to see him

This will only be my third time, went in 2015 and 2011. It's usually a struggle to find tickets but I randomly find a really good seat so yay nice Christmas treat to myself lol. I like waiting around at stage door its quite fun, and usually get chatting to other fans. I met Caroline Flack, Aljaz and Joanne last time

Sadly I live in the forgottens lands , down in Devon, so they do not come anywhere near us. I sometimes think that everything is forgotten South and West of London. Its as though there is a perception that London is just up the road from us, but its a very long way and train prices are astronomical.

I was going to suggest cardiff but it doesn't look like they're even doing that. Such a shame.

Wish Rinder was doing all the dates! I'd love to see him and Ed most of all tbh!

Jo is starring in the UK tour of the musical Thoroughly Modern Millie, which kicks off about the same time as the Strictly tour.

Oh of course, for some reason I didn't think that was until later on in the year. Fair enough, hopefully it goes well for her Will be interesting to see Ore with a different partner, has it happened before that the winner hasn't had their proper partner on tour?

Ah yes. We Devon dwellers do suffer. But it could be worse. Imagine being a DWTS fan. Even with 43 cities in their tour there'll be plenty to whom it comes no closer than 500 miles!

He still won most or all of the dates didn't he? Was it with Ola? Caroline didn't fare as well with Tristan.
