Strictly Come Dancing back on board
P&O Cruises has unveiled a programme of Strictly Come Dancing themed cruises for 2017.
In association with BBC Worldwide, guests will once again be able to watch and learn from a guest judge and four of the show’s favourite professional dancers.
The dancers and judges who will be on board each cruise will be announced later in the year.
The professionals will also teach dance classes on board and will offer ‘up close and personal’ interviews, photos and meet and greet opportunities.
The highlight is a passenger dance competition which culminates in a grand finale performance in the ship’s main theatre, with a judging panel including a Strictly professional dancer and guest judge.
P&O Cruises will also be joined by a team from DanceSport International, which supplies dresses and costumes to the show.
A selection of the costumes will be on display around the ship, displayed at fashion events, and available to buy.
P&O Cruises senior vice president Paul Ludlow said: "We are the only holiday company to have this partnership with one of the country’s best loved shows and these Strictly themed cruises appeal to people who can dance, want to learn to dance or just like to admire the glitz and glamour in person."
