Dancers in Need

On Wednesday 12 November BBC Suffolk is staging its very own version of Strictly Come Dancing at the Spa Pavillion in Felixstowe. The event will see 12 contestants, including all the day-time radio presenters (minus a forced-to-retire James Hazell), competing to see who's the king and queen of the dancefloor.

All the tickets for the event have now been sold but BBC Suffolk will be on hand to record lots of photographs of the chassés and sequins.
