Tonight’s Strictly Come Dancing final saw Amy Dowden return to the BBC ballroom.
Amy was forced to exit the competition after fracturing a bone in her foot. Her celebrity partner JB Gill was re-partnered with Lauren Oakley.
However, as the series finale got underway tonight, Amy made a surprise appearance in the pro number that opened the show – and her fans were thrilled.

Amy was forced to step back from the competition midway through its run after sustaining an injury.
The Strictly pro was devastated, as were her millions of fans.
However, tonight, she made a comeback. With the Strictly pros dressed in dazzling gold outfits, Amy was seen shaking her stuff in the group number.
At one point she looked straight into the camera and gave viewers at home a wink. And then the finalists – all wearing blue outfits – were introduced.
