Strictly Come Dancing is back with a bang with its first live shows and here are the scores.

The popular BBC dancing contest returned for its 20th series on Saturday after it was delayed following the Queen's death. 

The new couples, who were publicly announced during a pre-recorded launch show on Friday, took to the dance floor for their first routines this weekend.

Since it is the first week, none of the celebrities or their professional partners will find themselves in the dance-off or leaving the show this week.

However, the scores from their first dances will be carried over until next week so every dance step counts!

See how the new Strictly stars kicked off the series and where they came on the leaderboard.
