Kevin Clifton

Strictly Come Dancing champ Kevin Clifton returns, but this time as part of the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ weekday sister show, It Takes Two, where he’ll be taking up the reins of Choreography Corner alongside sister Joanne.

Kevin is a four-time British Latin American Champion and has won International Open dance titles all across the world.

He joined Strictly as a professional dancer in 2013 and was initially partnered with presenter Susanna Reid, making it all the way to the final in his first year.

The next few years were just as successful for the dancer from Grimsby, who sailed through to the final three more times, with pop star Frankie Bridge, actress Kellie Bright and singer Louise respectively. In fact, Kevin became the first professional dancer to make it to the Strictly final four years in a row.
But after a memorable series dancing with comedian Susan Calman, he finally got the gold in 2018 with broadcaster Stacey Dooley as they took home the Glitterball Trophy.

Kevin made his Broadway debut as a main dancer with Burn the Floor. He also treads the theatricals boards, having made his debut in Dirty Dancing The Musical in 2010 and starring as Cosmo Brown in the critically acclaimed production ‘Singin’ in the Rain. He has also starred in Rock of Ages, The Wedding Singer and The War of the Worlds. Most recently, Kevin played the role of Scott Hastings in the UK Tour of Strictly Ballroom The Musical and is joining the cast of Everybody’s Talking about Jamie. Kevin will also make his screen acting debut in Father Brown.
