Published Friday, Dec 16 2011, 09:00 GMT | By Alex Fletcher | Add comment
There's only sleep left until Blackpool! Harry Judd, Jason Donovan and Chelsee Healey will be squaring up in the Tower Ballroom and going fleckerl for fleckerl for the Glitterball Trophy.
To celebrate the glitzy finale, Reality Bites brings you some Strictly titbits and factoids that you almost definitely didn't know. Keep reading for Strictly... in numbers!

421 - The number of points Harry Judd and Aliona Vilani have scored this series. Nudging them ahead of Chelsee and Pasha with 417 and Jason and Kristina with 413.
27 - The number of each finalists' lowest scoring dance. Harry picked it up for the foxtrot in week two, Chelsee's worst was a waltz in week one, while Jason only hit the number in week four with his paso doble.
39 - Harry Judd's highest score of the series (for his Charleston, Viennese waltz and quick-step).
12 - The lowest score of the series. It went to... Nancy Dell'Olio. Of course. Her waltz in week one left a little to be desired.
6,000 - The attendance for Strictly's biggest ever show at Wembley Arena.

500 - The number of outfits individually designed and made for the series. They have helped make the 24 hours of live TV, 104 individual dances and 25 group routines extra sparkly.
1,000,000 - The Beeb has had over a million requests for tickets for the 2011 series. Over 83,200 applied for the final at Blackpool alone.
126 - The number of square metres that the BBC TVC dancefloor holds. It also features 300m of velvet drapes and 1,250m of LED lighting (enough to run the length of a football pitch).
4 - The number of gallons of fake tan used across the series. That's a lot of slap!

Strictly Come Dancing, which is available to watch in 3D this weekend, kicks off at 7pm on Saturday (December 17) on BBC One.
