Bill Bailey and Oti Mabuse have been crowned the winners of Strictly Come Dancing.
The 55-year-old comedian secured the Glitterball trophy during the show’s live final this evening.
Reacting to his win, Bill said: “It feels surreal, it feels extraordinary, it feels wonderful.”
“I never thought we’d get to the final but I had the most extraordinary teacher, the most extraordinary dancer, who believed in me right from the beginning and she found something in me and turned me into a dancer.”
