Each year the Strictly Final provides partnerships with the opportunity to reprise two of their previous routines; allowing us to see how far they have progressed over the course of the competition.

In this week’s blog we look back at the ten routines that saw an improvement of 8 (or more) points.

We hope you’ve enjoyed sharing the exhilarating 13-week 2022 Strictly journey here with us at strictly.dev.codevity.co.uk – for us, it’s been a brilliant starting series for our labour-of-love project and we look forward to many more to come, so a big thank you to all our users.
