Strictly Come Dancing announces change to show for final

Strictly Come Dancing has announced changes to the final as the last dances are revealed.

EastEnders star Maisie Smith, YouTuber HRVY, comedian Bill Bailey and reality star Jamie Laing will compete for the glitterball trophy.

Each of the couples will now perform three dances during the show, two of which they have done before earlier in the competition.

Maisie and her professional partner Gorka Marquez will perform a samba to Gloria Estefan's song Samba, a showdance to Idina Menzel's We Need A Little Christmas and a quickstep to Andy Williams' When You're Smiling.

Bill Bailey and Oti Mabuse will perform a quickstep to Bobby Darin's Talk To The Animals, a showdance to Queen's The Show Must Go On and their couple's choice dance to Rapper's Delight by The Sugarhill Gang.

HRVY and Janette Manrara will perform a jive to Faith by Stevie Wonder featuring Ariana Grande and a showdance to Brittany Murphy's Boogie Wonderland.

They will also re-perform an American smooth to One (Singular Sensation) from the musical A Chorus Line.

Jamie Laing and Karen Hauer will perform a Charleston to Zero To Hero from the Disney film Hercules, a showdance to a cover of Sir Elton John's I'm Still Standing and a couple's choice dance to Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now) by C+C Music Factory.

The final will also feature music from Robbie Williams and a group performance from the show's professional dancers.
