Scarlett Moffatt impressed with her Cha Cha during the Strictly Come Dancing Christmas special.

The Gogglebox and TV star won the Christmas special, which was Tess and Claudia’s last foray in the ballroom.
Scarlett was partnered with Vito Coppola and they danced a Cha Cha to a Christmas tune, earning them 40 points out of a total 40. When put with the studio audience vote, they came out on top.
Defending her past experience, Scarlett said: “Anton and Erin were doing a show, and at the end of the show, they would teach people how to do a bit of a foxtrot or a bit of a waltz. I went to that when I was eight, and Anton signed a piece of paper which I’ve still got. That somehow was translated into that I was trained by Anton. Somehow, that’s been twisted, and I am professionally trained by Anton. It’s so funny though, man. You’ve got to laugh, haven’t you?”
Scarlett had previously insisted her dance training would mean she could never enter the show properly. She wrote: “I know I’ll probably never get to dance on the main Strictly series because of my past dance experience when I was a little girl so getting to be part of the Christmas special means everything to me.”
