In this series, three new dance styles were introduced (contemporary, jazz and street) as part of a new category called "couple's choice", giving a total of 18 dance styles in the competition.[2]
The winners were Stacey Dooley and Kevin Clifton, becoming the seventh pair of winners to have never achieved a perfect score.[3] Runners-up Ashley Roberts and Faye Tozer matched Caroline Flack's record in 2014 of scoring perfect 40s for all three dances in the final. Roberts also set a record of achieving the most 40s during a series, with five. Roberts also matched Alexandra Burke’s record of the most 10s during the series, with 32. Tozer also set the record of most consecutive ‘10’ scoring dances, with 11.
The series was Bussell's last series as a judge, with Motsi Mabuse later announced as her replacement. It was also the last series to feature Pasha Kovalev who was replaced by Nancy Xu.
