Tens were thrown out here and everywhere, the outfits were a magpie's dream, and... we finally have our final three couples. But before we go ahead and spoil it for those who've yet to watch back, make sure you know how to catch up and watch Strictly Come Dancing 2021 online ahead of Saturday's glitzy final, with options to watch in the UK and abroad for free below. When: Saturday nights Channel: BBC One Free UK stream: watch BBC iPlayer for FREE Watch anywhere: try the top VPN around 100% risk-free It's Strictly tradition that, as we creep closer to the final of Strictly, more challenges are thrown at our line-up of celebrities. In Saturday night's semi-final, our couples had to learn double the amount of steps with two routines to perform each. The bookie's favourite, Rose Ayling-Ellis and Giovanni Pernice performed an Argentine Tango and a waltz. The latter was performed to Ellie Goulding's 'How Long Will I Love You'. Meanwhile, the highest scorer of this year's competition, John Waite, performed a Chive to Coldplay's 'Higher Power' and their Couple's Choice with partner Johannes Radebe. TV presenter AJ Odudu and her Strictly Pro Kai Widdrington juggled a Latin and ballroom number - the rumba and quickstep - to songs 'Show Me Heaven' and 'Sing, Sing, Sing'. Lastly, Rhys Stephenson, a children's TV presenter, took to the ballroom to dance a Samba to the dulcet tones of Michael Buble's 'It Had Better Be Tonight' and a tango to 'One Vision' by Queen. But who scored a 10, and which three couples won their place in the 2021 Strictly Final? Find out how to catch up and watch Strictly Come Dancing online below. You can catch up on the Strictly Come Dancing semi-final on BBC iPlayer ahead of the Final which will air live this Saturday at 7pm GMT absolutely free on BBC One. If you're not watching on linear TV, you can also tune in and stream it on BBC iPlayer, with the on-demand streaming platform available on a number of devices including on desktop, on dedicated iOS and Android apps, on streaming devices like Fire TV, Apple TV, and Roku, as well as on most smart TVs. If you're not in the UK, use a VPN to stream your favourite BBC shows online from anywhere as if you were at home. For anyone abroad right now who still wants to experience the glitz and glam of Strictly, you might struggle from outside of the UK. But don't let geo-restrictions come between you and your weekly fix of ballroom dancing. Simply downloading and installing a VPN to your device will let you watch Strictly Come Dancing on the BBC iPlayer from anywhere. A VPN effectively tricks your device into thinking it's in another location by changing the IP address to elsewhere in the world. ExpressVPN is the world's top VPN right now Get an extra 3 months completely FREE when you sign up for an annual Express VPN plan now. If you're not happy with the service within the first 30 days, let them know and they'll give you your money back. Three simple steps to using a VPN to watch Strictly Come Dancing 1. Download and install a VPN - we recommend ExpressVPN 2. Connect to the relevant server location - launch the VPN app, click on 'choose location' and select the right location i.e. UK for iPlayer 3. Head to the chosen broadcaster's live stream - in this case, head to the BBC iPlayer Although the country is well on its way back to normality (touch wood), the Strictly producers aren't taking any risks and have Covid-19 measures in place again in 2021. This time around anyone working on the show will be tested weekly and professional dancers will bubble up with their celebrities like last year. The group numbers for the series have already been filmed and there will be no group chats with Claudia and Tess, with couples sat in the audience instead, which will also be of limited numbers. The shortened isolation period after a positive test from fourteen days to ten should help the show to run smoother. Last year a positive test meant that the first same-sex couple on the show, Nicola Adams and Katya Jones, had to leave the competition early. However, the new rules should allow anyone that does test positive to miss a single week of live shows rather than end their time in the ballroom entirely. The Strcitly Come Dancing spin off show, It Takes Two, will return this month to curb that Strictly fever between live shows. The show will be back every weeknight to give you all of the behind the scenes exclusives. You can tune in to Strictly: It Takes Two on BBC Two at 6.30pm BST Monday to Friday. The half an hour show kicks off on Monday September 27 and will air for the duration of Strictly Come Dancing 2021. Remember, you can watch free on the iPlayer live or on demand. After a ten year stint on the show, Zoe Ball won't be returning in 2021. But fear not, the tea time show is in safe hands, with Ball's co-presenter, Rylan Clark-Neal, and long established professional dancer, Janette Marara, taking over presenting duties on It Takes Two this year. The sideshow is usually packed with training footage, interviews, opinions from the judges and much more, so for unseen behind the scenes extras, it's worth tuning in.
