Let's Dance 2011 - Charlie Baker, James Thornton

James Thornton and Charlie Baker have won tonight’s Let’s Dance For Comic Relief final show.

In an evening that saw Ade Edmondson become a dying swan, 80′s popstars shimmy to an old Grease song and Katie Price making a fool of herself once again, James and Charlie danced their away to victory with an old style tap dance routine to Putting On The Ritz.

Let’s Dance For Comic Relief Final: Russell Kane returns as Beyonce for ‘Crazy In Love’

Russell Kane was the last celebrity to perform on Let’s Dance For Comic Relief tonight.

The weird thing about Russell’s performance, and we found this first time round, is that it is not so funny and actually quite awesome!

The comedian drew some of the loudest cheers of the evening when he donned a racy orange dress and became Beyonce Knowles for her 2003 hit Crazy In Love. We hope that Jay Z wasn’t tuning in, because with those fake boobies and great booty, he might just get a little confused!

Let’s Dance For Comic Relief Final: Ade Edmondson really was a Dying Swan!

We loved Ade Edmondson in Bottom, we loved him in Holby City and tonight we loved him in Let’s Dance For Comic Relief.

The TV funnyman returned to the stage for the final of the charity series and once again almost made us pee our pants with his hilarious Dying Swam ballet performance.

Although Ade did make some effort at perfecting a few genuine ballet moves, the routine soon returned to the slapstick manner he is best known for and though his old pal Rik Mayall did not whack him on the head with a frying pan, he did drop a black, supposed 1 ton weight on his head.

Let’s Dance For Comic Relief Final: Eighties Supergroup do Grease once more!

The Eighties Supergroup returned to the Let’s Dance For Comic Relief stage this evening.

We knew from the off that Toyah Willcox, Clare Grogan, Chesney Hawkes and Limahl stand no chance of winning the series, not when up against the hilarious Noel Fielding and side splitting Ade Edmondson but still they were worth a giggle or two.

Let’s Dance For Comic Relief Final: Noel Fielding gives ‘Wuthering Heights’ by Kate Bush a second outing!

Noel Fielding on BBC's Let's Dance 2011

We LOVED Noel Fielding’s routine on his first Let’s Dance show and couldn’t wait to see him pull it out of the bag again tonight!

The TV funnyman once again donned his best red dress and Kate Bush like tresses and gave a fairly surreal performance to the singer’s track ‘Wuthering Heights.’

It’s an excellent kooky song choice for the hilarious goth and we love that the routine paid tribute to the original video – with two backing dancers mimicking Noel’s movements. Julian Barrett’s entrance as Heathcliff at the end was a touch of genius!

Let’s Dance For Comic Relief Final: James Thornton & Charlie Baker tap dance Putting On The Ritz again!

James Thornton and Charlie Baker brought us another dose of their tap dance magic on tonight’s Let’s Dance For Comic Relief final.

They make a bit of a joke of the fact that people on this show are supposed to be rubbish. In fact this talented pair are actually quite amazing.

It was our second look at the old school routine – Putting On The Ritz and we still weren’t bored. It reminded us of all those old movies we used to watch with our granny, while breaking our teeth on her incredibly brittle tray of toffee!

Let’s Dance For Comic Relief 2011: Katie Price dresses up as Freddie Mercury and performs I Want To Break Free again!

The only good thing about Katie Price’s performance on tonight’s Let’s dance For Comic Relief, was her introduction VT.

It’s not often you see the litigation happy drama queen taking the p*ss out of herself and it just shows that somewhere, sometimes, the ice queen may have a slight sense of humour.

Her routine in no way matched the hilarity that is Ade Edmondson and by the sound of it, Rufus Hound wasn’t too impressed either.

Let’s Dance For Comic Relief Final: Katie Price is ‘gutted’ about dressing up as Freddie Mercury again!

Katie Price will return to our TV screens tonight on Let’s Dance For Comic Relief.

The former glamour model won a spot on the final, after dancing to Queen’s ‘I Want To Break Free’ dressed as Freddie Mercury.

She will have to perform the routine all over again tonight, as she competes against Russell Kane, Charlie Baker, Ade Edmondson, Eighties Supergroup, James Thornton and Noel Fielding and speaking to The Sun’s Buzz magazine the mum of three admitted that she almost had a panic attack the first time round.
