Watch out world! Dancing with The Stars returns to Australian screens tonight, featuring Denise Scott!

This globally successful series features celebrities pairing up with professional dancers to compete in a weekly dance contest. Contestants have to learn and showcase their fancy footwork on the dance floor, in a bid to impress a panel of judges and audiences at home, who will be able to vote for their favourite pair.

In an interview ahead of the season premiere, Denise said “It’s certainly a lot more physical than my most recent project, which had me lying on my bed watching the entire series of The Good Wife while crocheting a hexagon blanket and drinking gin and tonic, I wish it hadn’t taken the sheer terror of having to dance in front of a million people on live TV to get me up off the couch and moving again but that’s the truth.”

Be sure to vote #1 Scotty! Head to the voting page here on the Ten Play website after each episode.

Dancing With The Stars premieres on Channel Ten at 7.30pm on Monday 18 February.
