Sir Bruce Forsyth and Tess Daly continued to present the main show on BBC One, while the results show was presented by Daly and Claudia Winkleman. Former contestant Zoe Ball replaced Winkleman as the regular presenter of the spin-off show Strictly Come Dancing: It Takes Two due to Winkleman's family commitments.[4] On 5 and 6 November Jennifer Grey, the winner of the eleventh series of Dancing with the Stars, the American version of 'Strictly', was a guest judge, replacing Len Goodman while he had a week off.[5] In Goodman's absence, Craig Revel Horwood was head Judge.
The full lineup of celebrities was revealed on 6 September 2011 on The One Show.[6] As in the previous series, the celebrities did not know who would be their professional partner until they were introduced to each other at the Launch Show. McFly drummer Harry Judd and Aliona Vilani won the show on 17 December 2011. Vilani also became the third female professional to reach two consecutive finals, after Lilia Kopylova and Erin Boag, having come second with Matt Baker in 2010.
This was Alesha Dixon's last series as a judge after three years, which the BBC announced on 2 January 2012, where she left the show as a judge for rival show, Britain's Got Talent.[7] She was replaced by series 7 judge Darcey Bussell for the tenth series.[8]
