After weeks of intense competition, the Strictly Come Dancing finalists are primed to take to the dance floor one last time.
Four celebrities are vying to get their hands on the glitterball trophy, in the show's 20th anniversary year: Chris McCausland, JB Gill, Sarah Hadland and Tasha Ghouri.
Comedian McCausland, who is Strictly’s first blind contestant, has emerged as the bookmakers' favourite to win after impressing both audiences and judges.
The grand final will be broadcast on Saturday from 18:00 GMT on BBC One and iPlayer.
The pair will also reprise their couple's choice routine to Instant Karma by John Lennon, which they first performed last month.
During the dance, which went viral on social media, the comedian placed his hands over Buswell's eyes as the room faded to black. The lights came back up moments later to show him spinning Buswell around on his shoulders as pyrotechnics flared in the background.
The pair received a score of 33 out of a possible 40 from the judges, with Craig Revel Horwood describing the "poignant blackout moment" as "absolutely spectacular".
McCausland was registered blind after losing his sight to retinitis pigmentosa in his 20s and 30s.
He revealed his 11-year-old daughter was initially "nervous" when he started out on Strictly, in case he fell over and "embarrassed" himself.
But now, she is backing him to win, he added.
"She'd say every Saturday, 'It doesn't matter daddy if you go out because I think you've already won'," he said.

"And then it was when we got to the semi-finals she said, 'Daddy, do you know when I said it doesn't matter? I've changed my mind. I think you can win this thing'."
'It's an incredible feeling' Gill has made it to the final, but his original dance partner, Amy Dowden, was forced to pull out of the series last month after a foot injury.
The professional posted on Instagram in November to say she was heartbroken that she could no longer continue.
It came not long after the Caerphilly-born dancer finished chemotherapy.
Dowden later clarified that her injury was unrelated to previous health issues, adding that she needed to rest but hoped to return.
Fellow pro Lauren Oakley took her place, pairing up with the JLS singer.
The pair will perform routines including a Show Dance to a Motown Medley and a Viennese Waltz to Let's Go Fly A Kite from Mary Poppins.
