    Strictly Come Dancing is back for 2022, and with it, all our celebrity-professional couples have been confirmed by the BBC ahead of Saturday night's (September 24) first live show.

    Strictly itself has many traditions. Blackpool week, the words 'Keeeeeeeep dancing', the other judges teasing Craig if they feel he's been too harsh in his critique... we could go on. But one such tradition is, of course, the first official studio portraits of each celeb with their pro dance partner. Happily, you can now enjoy these as well, before the competition gets going in just a matter of hours...

    Strictly Come Dancing airs on BBC One, with spin-off Strictly: It Takes Two airing on weeknights on BBC Two. Both shows are also available on BBC iPlayer.
