2018 Strictly finalist Joe Sugg teams up with producer Kim Winston to bring the fans an 'access all areas' backstage pass to the show. Kim has an encyclopaedic knowledge of Strictly, having worked on the show since 2009, and Joe knows first-hand what all the couples are going through, making them the perfect duo to give the listeners an exclusive insight of what really goes on backstage.

This is their FIFTH year working together, and in the launch show they chat to the brand-new cast of 2023 brining you all the news and nerves from behind the scenes! Current glitterball champ, Hamza offers his top tips, and they chat to Fleur East about her new role as host of It Takes Two.
