Wrapped up against the cold winds and rain, celebrities including Bake Off winner John Whaite – who had to pull out of one of the shows after a Covid scare – CBBC presenter Tilly Ramsay and Dragon’s Den star Sara Davies posed for selfies with the crowds who had gathered outside the Kimpton Blythswood Square Hotel.

Sara pulled faces for the photographers while Tilly and her professional partner Nikita Kuzmin cosied up against the cold wind.

Professional dancers Katya Jones, laden with shopping bags, and a smiling Nancy Xu also took time to wave and share a joke with fans. 

Max George of The Wanted and EastEnders actor Maisie Smith – bundled up in a Burberry puffa jacket - were also snapped on the steps of the hotel as they left for the venue.

Glasgow Times:

John, who is partnered with Johannes Radebe, had to miss Sunday's show because he tested positive for Covid, but he rejoined the tour when a PCR test came back negative.

Strictly Live is at the OVO Hydro tonight at 7.30pm
