The build up to this event was electric as nervous and keen competitors practiced feverishly, and then on the night  turning into beautiful dancers, helped along by the spectacular audience.  The judges have commented on how high the standards was this year, it just keeps on improving ? so well done to you all for all your effort and hard work over the past few months.

Royal Mail had an excellent night, with great performances, which saw them clinch the Tango and Jive to become champions of the Wood Group Ballroom Dancing Challenge.

Some gorgeous and well fitted outfits inspired beautiful performances from SEG to see them finish in second position overall.

Brilliant news for third place is that there were four teams joint position!!  They all showed brilliant performances and this goes to CNR International, SAIC, Shell 1, and Team Nexen!!
