Stacey Dooley and her dance partner Kevin Clifton are the champions of Strictly Come Dancing 2018.

They were crowned the winners of the 16th series of the show after beating Joe Sugg, Faye Tozer and Ashley Roberts.

It was Kevin's first time lifting the glitterball trophy after being a losing finalist four times before.

Although the judges gave their scores as usual, the winners were decided purely by the public vote.

Stacey and Kevin would have actually come fourth out of the four final pairs if it had just been down to the judges, who awarded them a score of 114 out of a possible total of 120.

After winning Stacey said: "I've had the most incredible time. It's daunting doing something you haven't done before - you feel silly, you feel like a bit of an idiot. But Kevin walks you through."
