Jason Donovan has described the BBC's decision to screen this year's Strictly Come Dancing final in 3D as "an incredible step forward" for the broadcaster.
The Australian TV star and singer, who is facing Harry Judd and Chelsee Healey in this weekend's Blackpool Tower showdown, admitted that he is jealous of viewers who could watch the spectacle at home.
"I think 3D is an incredible step forward for the BBC and this show. It's the perfect opportunity to showcase what is available with this technology," said Donovan at yesterday's finalists' press conference.
"It's going to be an amazing night. I wish I could be watching it at home with a glass of wine in my hand, looking at people strutting their stuff. 3D... wow, big thing.
"Robbie Savage won't be doing any hip thrusts on Saturday night that's for sure. Craig Revel Horwood in 3D, that's going to be interesting as well."
Strictly Come Dancing, which is available to watch in 3D, kicks off at 7pm on Saturday (December 17) on BBC One.
