VIDEO PREVIEW: Strictly Come Dancing Live waltzes back to Sheffield Arena

The TV series spin off the dance extravaganza is celebrating its tenth anniversary on the road with two nights next week, Wednesday and Thursday, January 25 and 26.

And Mr Strictly himself, Craig Revel Horwood - the judge everyone loves to hate - promises it will be 'Fab-u-lous'.

VIDEO: Watch our exclusive chats with the stars of the show and rehearsal footage in the video above.

In an exclusive chat, what the full interview online plus chats with other celebrity dancers, he told us: "People should come if they want to see how it's filmed, to see how much sparkle there really is - when you see all the costumes in real life it is arresting. It's just so beautiful,

"Plus you get to see all the superstars, your pro stars and of course me, live on stage. If I'm not worth £50 a ticket, come on.

"I know the show is going to be Fab-u-lous darling."

Craig, who has also directed the live tour for seven years, says he won't be going easy on any of the dancers and what you see from him on TV is no act. But he reckons miracles do happen and he could give Yorkshire's former Labour minister Ed Balls a perfect 10.

He said: "He will be doing the routines 40 times more. He'll get better and better. On TV you do a different routine every week, here he will be repeating the same routine and who knows he might get so good that he ends up with 10s.

"I think that's far fetched but it may happen. It could happen. Miracles have occurred before on this show.

Ed, from Castleford, teamed up with Katya Jones, said he's looking forward to campaigning for votes again - the audience can text vote for a winner of each live show

He said: "Bruce Springsteen and Paul McCartney are probably complacent about playing arenas but I've never done it before and I'm looking forward to it all over the country, particularly Yorkshire. I'm 99.5 per cent certain we'll be doing the Gangnam Style routine."
