Strictly Come Dancing 2025 – Launch Show (Pairings) Spoilers

Here we go! It’s time for the first spoiler of the 2025 series. The launch show has been filmed and our class of 2025 have been paired with their professional partners. But whilst the BBC might like you to wait over a week to learn the couples, I am on hand to give you the info you crave. So here are the pairings….

Stefan & Dianne
Vicky & Kai
Chris & Nadiya
Thomas & Amy
Alex & Johannes
Jimmy & Lauren
Harry & Karen
Ross & Jowita
La Voix & Aljaz
Ellie & Vito
George & Alexis
Karen & Carlos
Lewis & Katya
Balvinder & Julian
Dani & Nikita

Complaints to the BBC

This spoiler has come from an audience mole from another source I work with and should be accurate

You can let me know your thoughts about the pairings over on Facebook, X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, Threads or BlueSky. No prizes on offer quite yet but there will be prizes on offer each week once the series kicks off proper. Don’t forget to follow me on all those networks to keep up with all things Strictly Spoiler and please give my posts a good old like/share to help get the word out there.

We are heading into the main season and operating this website is very expensive during the main series where my hosting bills can easily exceed £1000 per month. If you want to help me out with these costs or just want to thank me for the service I provide you can do so using this link or the button below. Please only consider making a donation if you can afford to do so.

Or why not subscribe on patreon? Patreon subscribers gain access to the results of the exit poll each week where I plug the results of my poll into Strictly’s scoring system to generate a potential result hours before the spoiler comes in as soon as the BBC vote closes. If that’s not enough the spoiler will be exclusively shared to patreon subscribers free of other monetisation in an ad free form! All for a voluntary level of contribution starting from around the price of a coffee each month. If you use an Apple device please sign up on the mobile web or a different device rather than the Patreon app as the app will cost you 50% more to cover Apple payment processing fees and will also significantly delay your funds reaching me

Or new for 2025 you can now also subscribe on Facebook. Facebook subscribers also gain access to the above mentioned exit poll results where you learn how things may have gone within minutes of the BBC vote closing. You will also gain a unique subscriber badge on your comments over on Facebook. Again this is priced at around the price of a coffee each month. Mobile users should sign up on the web or mobile web where possible

Or support me for free and earn yourselves cashback on your everyday shopping towards your mobile phone bills. Sign up to Airtime Rewards using promo code 6T7W9L6X, link your credit/debit card and any time you shop at participating retailers you will automatically earn cash back which can be credited towards your mobile phone bill on all major networks.

The Class Of 2020 – Pairings/Poll

Whilst I wasn’t able to confirm the pairings prior to the launch show (read more about why that is in my FAQ post – and I was right not to as the spoiler that was doing the rounds was wrong) we have just had them confirmed to us during the course of tonight’s Launch Show.

I can reveal that the 12 couples taking part are……..

Caroline and Johannes
Clara and Aljaz
Ranvir and Giovanni
HRVY and Janette
Jason and Luba
Jamie and Karen
Nicola and Katya
Jacqui and Anton
Maisie and Gorka
JJ and Amy
Bill and Oti
Max and Dianne

Complaints to the BBC

What do you think of the pairings? As always you can let me know here in the comments or over on Facebook or Twitter. Or you can vote in my poll below and tell me who your favourite couples are. As always I’ll let you pick up to 3 options. I’ve had to reset the poll due to sabotage by bots overnight. I’m trying a different poll system to see if I can block them

It’s been a tough year for all of us but providing this site is still going to cost me close to £1000 this series. I always stress this on the donation links but it is more important than ever in 2020 that you only consider helping me out with these costs if you can afford to do so. I would not want to cause anyone else hardship because they chose to help me out. However all donations are as ever gratefully received. You can make a one time donation by clicking on THIS LINK or using the button below:

Also new for 2020 you can make a regular donation by becoming a patreon. Donations on patreon start at just the price of a coffee a month and if the patreon page takes off I can start looking at patreon exclusive content/rewards.

There’s also ways you can help me out for free and even make some money yourself by doing so. One way I’ve been plugging on social media a lot these last few weeks is by checking your energy prices and earning yourselves £50 in the bargain by switching using my magic link (you must complete the switch using the link and not just get a quote which you come back to later). Octopus energy have 100% green electricity, are a Which recommended supplier and were one of the few suppliers to maintain a full telephone service during the pandemic. They’re a different supplier to the one I was recommending last series and are definitely worth a look as we head into the colder months.

Switching energy suppliers is quick (it takes about 2 minutes to sign up from my link and usually about 3 weeks for the process to complete), there is no interruption to your energy supply, no engineers have to visit and you don’t need to change you meters (unless you sign up to a smart tariff and don’t have a compatible meter). I get £50 from every switch so this does help me out quite a bit.

Alternatively you can help me out by doing things as simple as liking all my content, sharing it and getting involved in the discussions on the social networks. This all helps to increase my visibility and get me noticed on those networks and is also appreciated!
