And of course, it's time to find out who out of Bobby Brazier, Ellie Leach and Layton Williams will lift this year's Strictly glitterball trophy!
Here are 7 TV shows you can't miss this week...
1. Strictly Come Dancing: The Final
Saturday 16th December at 7pm on BBC One
After 12 weeks of dazzling routines, Strictly firsts and incredible journeys, it's time for the Grand Final and time to crown this year's Strictly Come Dancing champion.
Sadly, last weekend saw Annabel Croft and Johannes Radebe bow out of the competition, meaning that this year's finalists are Bobby Brazier (with Dianne Buswell), Ellie Leach (with Vito Coppola) and Layton Williams (with Nikita Kuzmin).
But with three routines each to perform, who will lift that famous Glitterball trophy? And remember, this week the judges’ scores are for guidance only as the winner lies entirely in your hands.
And if all that wasn't enough excitement, superstar Cher will be performing and the cast of 2023 will return for one more epic routine.
