[edit] Format
The show pairs a number of celebrities with professional ballroom dancers who each week compete against each other in a competition to impress a panel of judges and the viewing public in order to survive potential elimination. Through a telephone poll, viewers vote who should stay and who should go, the results of the poll being combined with the ranking of the panel of judges. For example, with 4 contestants left, the judges' favourite would receive 4 points, 2nd favourite 3, and so on, and similarly with the viewers' rankings, similar to the British version.[1]
The show is broadcast live on TVN on Saturday evenings, and it is presented by Katarzyna Skrzynecka and Piotr Gąsowski. Each judge gives the performance a mark out of ten, giving an overall total out of forty.
