A night of surprises on the Elstree Studios dancefloor made for a cracking start to the 2019 contest.

Here are all the major talking points and social media reaction from this year's first live show…

Kelvin Fletcher came off the bench brilliantly

Jamie who? Digestive what? Former Emmerdale actor Kelvin Fletcher was a late replacement for Made in Chelsea's Jamie "Biscuits" Laing, who sadly had to withdraw from the series after sustaining a foot injury during the launch show. Paired with popular pro Oti Mabuse, Fletcher gamely stepped into the breach and had some serious catching up to do. But boy, did he hit the dancefloor running.

Tackling the tricky samba, he booty-popped, hip-shook, shoulder-shimmied and with his beefcake physique, "started a chain reaction of hot flushes around the country", as judge Bruno Tonioli put it. Even Oti's big sister Motsi Mabuse was fanning herself with a scoring paddle.

Bravo, supersub. Form an orderly queue, ladies. Sorry, Jamie, but we've all forgotten you already.

Motsi Mabuse brought fizz to judging panel

New judge Motsi Mabuse had the unenviable job of replacing beloved ballerina Dame Darcey Bussell on the paddle-raising panel. But with 30 years of dance experience, eight years of judging experience, one sparkly jumpsuit and a whole lot of personality, Motsi proved a smart addition and a breath of fresh air.

She struck the perfect balance between informed advice and entertaining comments. Everyone was "girl" or "mama". There were "vrooms" and "bams". She smiled and somehow still encouraged, even when giving out low scores and harsh critiques.

One launch show and one live show into her Strictly stint, Motsi is looking like an inspired piece of casting. Even the much-discussed clash of interests while judging sister Oti wasn't a problem - admittedly, partly because all eyes were on her partner Kelvin Fletcher's bulging biceps and bouncing buttocks.

James Cracknell and Anneka Rice were first-night flops

The two biggest dancefloor disappointments were Olympic rower James Cracknell and Treasure Hunt presenter Anneka Rice, who looked to have all the choreographic ability of an oar and a helicoper rotor blade respectively.

Cracknell has no performance background, admittedly, but he was rigid with terror during his tango, which was hunched, lethargic and looked somewhat constipated.

Flat-footed Rice was little better, attempting a cha-cha-cha in trainers - possibly because it involved more running around than dance steps. Both will do well to make it Halloween special.

No dream start for Anton Du Beke

Strictly stalwart Anton Du Beke being paired with EastEnders actress Emma Barton had the ballroom grapevine abuzz with murmurs that this could be Anton's year at last. Yet the couple didn't begin the contest with the bang many Anton fans had hoped.

Their Abba jive was perfectly respectable but laboured, floppy and lumpen in places, leaving them forgettably mid-table. Anton's strength lies in ballroom, of course, but the old stager will need to do much better than this if he's to book himself in until Christmas, like he quipped on the launch show. Must try harder, Tony Beak.

Boys dominated leaderboard on opening night

Tucked in just behind pace-setter Kelvin Fletcher were a pair of surprise packages. CBBC presenter Karim Zeroual crept up to become glitterball favourite with bookmakers this week and now showed why, with a carwash-themed cha cha cha full of streetdance moves and sharp musicality.

Radio 1 DJ Dev Griffin delivered a contrasting but equally accomplished routine:  a sweetly Sixties foxtrot with elegance, softness and, according to head judge Shirley Ballas, "the best ballroom footwork all evening".

It meant that male celebrities occupied three of the top four spots on the year's first leaderboard. Strong start, gents. Just 12 weeks to go, so keep it up.

Lice to see you, to see you lice

Did anyone else notice that strange little subplot when head judge Shirley Ballas seemed to brush a bug out of her new bobbed hairdo, only for it to land on the desk and get squished by neighbour Bruno Tonioli with his scoring paddle? Another bizarre moment on a eventful show. Let's just hope the animal rights lobby weren't watching.

Literal song choices were shamelessly naff

Strictly is never knowingly subtle but there were still some clumsily literal lyrics among the night's song choices. Viscountess Weymouth Emma Thynn played the aristocratic role to Tom Jones “She’s A Lady”, while Emma Barton danced to “Honey Honey” - her Albert Square character is Honey Mitchell, see?

Former footballer Alex Scott nodded to her sporting prowess with Frank Sinatra’s “I Get A Kick Out Of You”, as did Olympic rower James Cracknell with Spandau Ballet’s’ “Gold” and ex-England goalkeeper David James with terrace anthem “Three Lions”.

By the time we reached Anneka Rice, any attempt at clever wordplay was completely abandoned and Dave Arch's band simply changed “Gloria” by Laura Branigan to "Anneka". Let's hope this isn't the start of a new lyric-rewriting trend or it could get ugly.

Michelle and Saffron flew the female flag

You would have got long odds on Michelle Visage and Saffron Barker being the standout female celebrities but so it proved.

Ru Paul's Drag Race judge Visage might be the contest's second oldest female at 50 but you'd never know it. She had serious sass and swaggering stage presence in a cha cha cha full of lovely details. The likeable New Jersey diva could attain cult status over the coming weeks.

At the other end of the age spectrum, teen vlogger Barker surprised us with a fiery, passionate tango featuring impressive staccato action.  Could she mobilise her social media following to become this year's Joe Sugg?

Strong start to series despite line-up worries

On paper, this year's celebrity line-up looked a little lacking in star power. On the dancefloor, though, it was dynamite and this opening live show went a long way to banishing any niggling concerns. First-night nerves be damned.

The hotly tipped likes of Emma Barton, Catherine Tyldesley and Alex Scott were decent enough but somehow all ended up in mid-table. Surprise packages with lower recognition factor such as Kelvin Fletcher, Dev Griffin, Saffron Barker and Will Bayley soared past them to occupy the top half of the scoreboard. It made for an unpredictable and hugely entertaining curtain-raiser.

Even most of the mediocre hoofers - the likes of David James, Anneka Rice and Chris Ramsey - looked to be having the time of their lives. Strictly's hit format is so irresistible that it tends to transcend the casting. They must be breathing big sighs of relief at the BBC because this programme proved it once again.

So who will be sent home first?

There’s no public vote nor dreaded dance-off for this first week while the couples find their dancing feet. Instead tonight’s scores will roll over to next weekend and the first results show will air next Sunday, when one couple will leave the competition for good. Which amateur hoofer might suffer the humiliation of the first exit?

Well, lumbering oarsman James Cracknell looks the worst dancer by far, although disco auntie Anneka Rice wasn't far behind. Comedian Chris Ramsey could also be looking nervously over his sequin-spangled shoulder. After such an unpredictable start to the series, though, it's frankly anyone's guess.

See you back on the liveblog next weekend for more samba rolls and cheesy cha-chas. In the meantime, you know the drill: keeeep dancing.

10:02PM

Saturday’s show in full

Here’s your routine-by-routine recap of this year's first live show…

9:19PM

Credits roll

That concludes tonight’s hot hoofing action. Stay with us, though, for analysis, comment and social media reaction.

9:19PM

Claudia on top form

Up in the Clauditorium, Ms Winkleman was on witty form tonight. Sharp comebacks and arch asides. Adore her.

9:11PM

Emma and Anton's jive

The King Of Ballroom starts his series with a jive, slightly surprisingly, to a song chosen in tribute to Emma’s EastEnders character, Honey Mitchell. It's set in the Albert Square Minute Mart (classy) but sweetly retro, cute choreography and she's doing well with a tough dance first-up. Legs good but arms a little floppy and lacking sharpness.

Music: “Honey Honey” by ABBA

Judges’ verdict: Craig says "Laboured and need to nail the beat but amazing potential". Motsi says "Great posture and legs but you tightened up". Shirley says "A natural born performer but way too heavy and posture not in the correct place". She shushes the studio audience with "listen and learn something". Miaow. Bruno concludes "A few issues but a crowd-pleasing performance".

Judges' scores: 6, 6, 5, 6 for a total of 23 points. Mid-table. Anton quips "It's taken me about three weeks to get that in the past, I'll take that."

9:04PM

Karim and Amy’s cha cha cha

Penultimate dance now and this should be a goodie. Karim became the bookies’ glitterball favourite after he looked handy in the launch show and Craig Revel Horwood highlighted them as a pairing with potential. Car wash theme and some chamois-ography to start. He's confident and sharp, streetdance solo sections, lost timing in the middle but some tasty breakdance moves. Bright, zesty, frisky fun.

Music: “If I Can't Have You” by Shawn Mendes

Judges’ verdict: Bruno says "Revved up and firing on all cylinders, you threw everything at it, a tour de force, musicality, what a night". Craig says "Not the right steps but as entertainment, I loved it". Motsi says "My head is spinning, that was so good". Shirley concludes "Timing, musicality, personality, technique not bad at all."

Judges' scores: 8, 8, 7, 8 for a total of 31 points. Second so far.

8:56PM

Will and Janette’s quickstep

The Paralympic table tennis champion and the pocket rocket start off with one of Janette’s favourite dances. Lovely Bob Fosse jazzy feel to start. A bit more hesitant in hold but skips around the floor nicely and working the room well. He looks like he lost his place at times but high performance levels, loads of attitude and fun.

Music: “Pencil Full of Lead” by Paolo Nutini

Judges’ verdict: Shirley says "What disability and limitations? That was off the charts, magnificent performance". Bruno says "You have the nation's hearts, worked hard and it showed'. Craig says "Frenetic, needed more in hold but lightning speed of movement and told the story brilliantly. " Motsi concludes "You're a true inspiration, high energy, vroom, hello everybody".

Judges' scores: 5, 7, 7, 7 for a total of 26 points. Fifth so far and the highest scoring week one quickstep ever.

8:49PM

Anneka and Kevin’s cha cha cha

The reigning champion pro tries to steer the contest’s senior female through her first dance. Treasure Hunt theme as Anneka descends on a rope ladder and takes a loooong time to start dancing. She's flat-footed but beaming and living her best life. Walking and jogging around but a little attempt at dancing at the end at least. Stop the clock.

Music: “Gloria” by Laura Branigan

Judges’ verdict: Motsi says "You rocked the floor." Shirley says "For a non-dancer, you need work but great energy". Bruno says "Anneka survived the cha-cha-challenge, a few obstacles but you got to the end", Craig concludes  "Very stiff, flat-footed, lacked hip action but you're secretly better than you're making out so keep going".

Judges' scores: 3, 4, 3, 4 for a total of 14 points. Third from bottom and that was generous.

8:41PM

Dev and Dianne’s foxtrot

The Radio 1 DJ and the Aussie redhead opt for ballroom first time out, perhaps surprisingly. Novelty DJ booth beginning, then into a sweetly Sixties retro routine. Dev's performance levels are decent, his steps respectable and his timing on-point. A little careful around the floor but full of charm.

Music: “Build Me Up Buttercup” by The Foundations

Judges’ verdict: Craig says "Elegant and graceful." Motsi says "You made it look like a Sunday stroll with an ice cream, soft, rhythmical and so nice." Shirley says "Musicality off the chart and the best ballroom footwork all evening", Bruno concludes "Mr DJ, you have a big hit on your hands, quality of movement was top of the pops, tonight has been one surprise after another".

Judges' scores: 7, 7, 8, 8 for a total of 30 points. Joint second. Yes, Dev.

8:32PM

Michelle and Giovanni’s cha cha cha

A suitably diva-ish song choice for the Drag Race doyenne. Fierce and fiery, hip action and disco shimmies. Great sass and performance levels, she's really selling it and working the crowd. Lost balance a little in the spins but fabulous and loved that finger-waggling finish.

Music: “So Emotional” by Whitney Houston

Judges’ verdict: Bruno says "Clear, crisp and in focus, you worked your best angles and could sell ice to Eskimos." Craig says "You don't need the judges' help, my darling." Motsi says "Bam, hello Strictly, you never looked rushed and had time for details, I love you mama". Shirley concludes "Syncopated Cuban breaks were off the charts, she's gonna eat you for lunch Giovanni".

Judges' scores: 8, 8, 7, 7 for a total of 30 points. Second on the scoreboard so far.  Fierce.

8:24PM

David and Nadiya’s foxtrot

The former England goalkeeper and the Ukrainian pro are this year’s tallest pairing. A foxtrot to the terrace anthem should be… interesting. There's a tunnel, a goal, a pitch on the dancefloor, they're in football kits - they've really gone for the gimmicky theming. Hesitant and sedate but sweet and quite ambitious content-wise. Not bad at all.

Music: “Three Lions” by Baddiel, Skinner and Lightning Seeds

Judges’ verdict: Shirley says "light on your feet, nice soft knees, great frame and much promise". Bruno says "I'm surprised it wasn't an own goal, full of graceful content, lost your footing at times but a proper foxtrot". Craig says "Went wrong and lost it, needs proper emotion". Motsi concludes "dancing not bad, great try but you need to perform and entertain us".

Judges' scores: 3, 4, 5, 5 for a total of 17 points. Third from bottom so far.

8:15PM

Kelvin and Oti’s samba

The former Emmerdale actor was a late replacement for injured Jamie Laing and is brave to tackle the tricky samba first time out. But how will Oti’s big sister score it? Booty-popping, shoulder-shimmying, decent hips. For someone who started later than the rest, this is very impressive. A tricky lift with messy dismount but big finish and really rather good. Spicier than a balti pie. Streamers fall. Standing ovation in the studio. Judges on their feet. Bravo, supersub.

Music: “La Vida Es Un Carnaval” by Celia Cruz

Judges’ verdict: Motsi says "Oh my goodness, are we not happy you stepped in? Assets, ooziness in your body, rhythmical and strong, so fun, I loved it". Shirley says "I'm a little bit lost for words, you're sensual and in touch with feminine side, outstanding." Bruno says "This hunk is on fire, you started a chain reaction of hot flushes around the country. The best samba I've ever seen on a debut show". Craig concludes "Your hand bothers me, bounce needs work but God works in mysterious ways: amazing."

Judges' scores: 8, 8, 8, 8 for a total of 32 points.

8:05PM

James and Luba’s tango

A song referencing the rower’s medal haul and a serious-faced dance to start.Luba dancing around him. Suit-clad Cracknell clearly out of comfort zone and stiff as an oar. Concentrating too hard on remembering the steps and not performing it. Blank-faced and a bit weird, bless him.

Music: “Gold” by Spandau Ballet

Judges’ verdict: Craig says "Posture was hunched, bottom sticking way out, lacked drive and sharp staccato, put energy into your body, very lethargic". Motsi says "Let us in a bit, open up and have fun with it and don't give up". Shirley says "Needs work but no mistakes and stayed in time" Bruno concludes "Looked like James Bond but it's hard to lead and act the part, we want to see passion, perform it and wow us."

Judges' scores: 2, 3, 3, 3 for a total of 11 points. Bottom so far. Ouch.

7:57PM

Viscountess Weymouth and Aljaž’s cha cha cha

Can the aristocrat shake her hips? Alijaz has been shouting “ankles, ankles!” at her in training, apparently. Confident and elegantly leggy in the solo sections. Some hip wiggles and flirty spins. This is pretty good for a first timer. Lost timing a little in the middle but cheeky attitude and a fun finish.

Music: “She's a Lady” by Tom Jones

Judges’ verdict: Bruno says "We have Strictly's Posh Spice but you let your hair down and came alive, slightly underperformed at times but great potential." Craig says "Take your hips further and use the floor but great rhythm and extremely watchable." Motsi says "Sensual, ladylike, sexy without trying too hard but spice it up and bring your weight forward." Shirley concludes "Smile is infectious, needs technical work but delightful to watch, amazing promise".

Judges' scores: 5, 5, 4, 5 for a total of 19 points

7:47PM

Mike and Katya’s jive

The Russian pro seems to have been punished for last year’s snog-gate scandal by being saddled with the dad-dancer from BBC Breakfast. Hard work for a 53-year-old's first dance and he's pretty flat-footed with an Oompah-Loompah spraytan. Playing it for laughs, some flicks, leaps and textbook Katya trickery. Knee-slide to finish. Better than I expected, actually.

Music: "Do You Love Me?” by The Contours

Judges’ verdict: Shirley says "You're a jumping bean, kickball changes were from about week 8 but great energy and entertainment". Bruno says "Mad but I loved it, bizarre but some recognisable jive steps, jumping higher than a Match hare." Craig says "Like an overwound tin toy, sickle feet, lacked retraction." Motsi concludes "I was entertained in a strange way, keep up that non-stop energy."

Judges' scores: 4, 6, 6, 6 for a total of 22 points. Second so far. Generous.

7:40PM

Saffron and AJ’s tango

The 19-year-old vlogger and fresh-faced AJ get serious with a passionate tango. Phone gimmick to start, red colour scheme. Footwork and topline lacking but lots of staccato and stalking across the floor. Excellent effort, despite some goofy face-pulling.

Music: “Lips Are Moving” by Meghan Trainor

Judges’ verdict: Motsi says "Girl, you have fire, I love that, enjoyed every second, best dance so far." Shirley says "Difficult choreography, needs more work on your frame and core but truly fabulous." Bruno says "Up and on it!" Craig concludes "A bit too paso-ish for me but staccato and great energy."

Judges' scores: 6, 7, 7, 7 for a total of 27 points. Top of the leaderboard so far and AJ's best ever start to a series.

7:32PM

Catherine and Johannes’ Viennese waltz

The Coronation Street alumnus and the newly promoted South African pro spin around the floor for the first Viennese of the series. She's been sick with dizziness in training. Hippy-ish styling and a sweet routine. Catherine looks very accomplished. Slight wobble towards the end but she and Alex Scott already look like potential finalists.

Music: “I Got You Babe” by Sonny and Cher

Judges’ verdict: Craig says "Bumpy transitions, head a little high but you've got great potential, my love." Motsi says "Elegant couple, created an atmosphere but smooth and soften it." Shirley says "Extremely feminine, let Johannes hold you and lead, but you're a force to be reckoned with." Bruno says "Light, breezy, effortless but you tightened up and stumbled."

Judges' scores: 5, 5, 5, 5 for a total of 20 points. One point behind Alex Scott.

7:23PM

Chris and Karen’s cha cha cha

The Geordie joker and the Venezuelan firecracker bring the party with what Chris Ramsey calls "a triple cha". Cracking song choice from the rapping r’n’b diva du jour. Day-glo outfits, NYC street set and wedding disco feel. Chris is doing too much walking and pose-striking but he's trying to nail that hip action. A bit stiff but top marks for whole-hearted effort. "That was horrible," says Chris self-deprecatingly.

Music: “Juice” by Lizzo

Judges’ verdict: Bruno says "Darling, I could see the determination and effort but total lack of timing and rhythm. Hip action bypass." Craig says "Very awkward, stompy and flat-footed, free arm needs work but deep down inside, you have some rhythm." Motsi says "Brilliantly expressive face but we need some of that in the body, which was on holiday." Shirley concludes "Chemistry and attitude but clompy footwork."

Judges' scores: 3, 4, 3, 3 for a total of 13 points. "Annihilated!" says Chris.

7:15PM

Alex and Neil’s quickstep

Kicking off the series, it's the newly promoted ginger pro and the bookies’ second favourite celebrity. Dancing in trainers in the rehearsal VT. Tut tut. Confident start, jazzy style and light, classy footwork. Elegant, glamorous, timing in-sync and a cork-popping finish. A few fluffed steps but Alex Scott looks highly promising.  Consider the bar set high, class of 2019.

Music: “I Get a Kick Out of You” by Frank Sinatra

Judges’ verdicts: "Opened the show with snap, crackle and pop, you were on fire, lost your footing but a decent frame," says head judge Shirley Ballas. Bruno Tonioli says: "Amazing potential, natural elegance, light, frothy, cover up those mistakes because you're good." Craig Revel Horwood says: "A bit haphazard, frame loose, drooping left elbow but love your energy." Motsi Mabuse concludes: "Started shy but you lifted and lightened, put on a show because you've got the goods, girl, you're dangerous."

Judges' scores: 5, 5, 5, 6 for a total of 21 points. Harsh but it's a start.

7:10PM

Meet our Strictly stars

Not too much fancy dress except for David James in a sort of sequinned football kit and Karim Zeroual in a ballroom boiler suit. Very Ghostbusters-gone-glittery.

7:08PM

Motsi Mabuse not understated

The new judge is jumpsuited, cloaked, sparkly and fabulous.

7:08PM

Frockwatch

As the co-presenters make their entrance, time for our first live style comparison of the series. Claudia Winkleman is sporting an asymmetric black jumpsuit. Tess Daly 's in a red bustier jumpsuit with rhinestones. Looks like they're sharing a stylist but Tess wins.

7:06PM

Pros go disco

The VT flips into a silver sparkly group routine from the pros, set to "Lola's Theme" by house duo Shapeshifters.

7:04PM

Roll new-look credits

First look at this year's title sequence. Smouldering! Leaping! A bit of leapfrog! Lots of pointing! High-five and fistbumps! And into another build-up VT. Get on with it, gang.

7:01PM

And we're off!

After a deliriously camp trailer for Ru Paul's Drag Race UK, which starts 3rd October on BBC Three, Strictly 2019 begins with a scene-setting montage.

6:56PM

Strictly season is about to begin in earnest

Last knockings of Celebrity Pointless right now on BBC One. Mere minutes until that familiar ba-ba-da theme tune...

6:52PM

Karim is new glitterball favourite

All eyes will be on CBBC presenter Karim Zeroual, who cut a rug in the launch show and has overtaken football pundit Alex Scott as the glitterball favourite with bookmakers.

Another one to watch is Anneka Rice and reigning pro champion Kevin Clifton, who are unleashing their hips for one of those five cheeky Cha-Chas.

Meanwhile, Strictly stalwart Anton Du Beke will be guiding hotly tipped EastEnders actress Emma Barton through an Abba jive. Will she be his, ahem, dancing queen? Ten minutes to wait...

6:44PM

Expect copious Cha Cha Chas

Tonight's songs and dances have already been announced and it’s a proper mixed bag. There are five Cha Cha Chas (always a popular choice for rookie hoofers), plus a pair of quicksteps, two jives, two tangos and two foxtrots.

If you do the maths (no “math” singular here, darling, this is Strictly), that leaves just two couples dancing unique styles and they both happen to be soap alumni.

Former Coronation Street star Catherine Tyldesley will perform a romantic Viennese Waltz with newly promoted pro partner Johannes Radebe, while ex-Emmerdale actor Kelvin Fletcher is brave enough to be tackling a samba first time out.

Time to reserve your sofa spot. Fifteen minutes until showtime...

6:34PM

Late substitute and sisterly intrigue

Tonight is our first chance to see late replacement Kelvin Fletcher, who was called up from the sparkly subs' bench when Made In Chelsea's Jamie "Biscuits" Laing was forced to withdraw from the series through injury.

Former Emmerdale actor Fletcher steps into Laing's dancing shoes as the celebrity partner of popular professional Oti Mabuse. And Oti's big sister Motsi Mabuse has just joined the judging panel, so it will be fascinating see how she critiques and scores her sibling.

Start limbering up. Just 25 minutes until the curtain comes up on this year's contest...

6:27PM

Time to get down to ballroom business

Now the hard hoofing work begins. This Saturday at 7pm on BBC One, it’s the first live show of Strictly Come Dancing 2019.

We got a glimpse of our 15 pro-celebrity couples being paired up in the launch show, before taking to the floor for that chaotic closing group number. They've since disappeared to the rehearsal rooms for a fortnight of intense choreographic training. Now we’ll get our first look at them as they make their official dancefloor debuts.

Full routines. Actual proper dancing. Yes, Strictly season is truly upon us.  There’s no elimination, public vote, results show or dreaded dance-off this week - although the judges’ scores will be roll over to next weekend, when we’ll lose our first couple.

Bookies’ favourites for an early exit are former England goalkeeper David James and BBC Breakfast’s dad-dancer Mike Bushell. Can they defy the odds? Could the likes of Anneka Rice or James Cracknell even find themselves at risk?

With 15 couples to get through, Saturday evening’s bumper show clocks in at two hours and 20 minutes. I know, right? We'll be liveblogging from 6.30pm, providing build-up, rolling coverage, recaps, analysis and mild sequin-spangled sarcasm. Please join us - and join in too. You can email me on michael.hogan@ telegraph.co.uk, tweet me on @michaelhogan or leave comments at the bottom of this blog. I'll keep an eye on them all and report the highlights here.

Stock up on snacks, pour yourself a large drinkipoo and strap yourself in, because it promises to be an epic. Nearly time to staaaart dancing…
