Strictly Come Dancing’s most anticipated grand finale aired last night and Twitter is in a meltdown. The hashtags ‘#strictlycomedancing’, ‘#strictly2017’ and ‘#strictly’ are trending on Twitter as viewers pour in with their views on the series finale.<\/h3>\n

The dance show has broken its own records, as this year’s series is the most popular in the show’s 14 year history with an average audience of 11 million. The grand finale finished with a 13.1 million viewership, which is less than the 2010 finale, which had an audience of 14.3 million.<\/p>\n

Fans were divided on last night’s win, with Alexandra Burke being a major favourite, along with Gemma Atkinson. Strictly’s 2017 winner Joe McFadden was taking the lead in most online polls and Twitter polls ahead of the Strictly Come Dancing grand finale.<\/p>\n
