Rowland Rivron has been crowned the winner of Let's Dance For Sport Relief.
The 52-year-old comedian and TV presenter won the title on the BBC1 charity show after performing a routine to Weapons Of Choice by Fatboy Slim.
Replicating the music video for the song, which features actor Christopher Walken dancing through a hotel lobby, Rivron impressed both the panel of celebrity judges and the public.
He received more votes than the other celebrity acts in the climax of the fundraising series.
The show saw choreographer Arlene Phillips return to a reality television judging panel. She joined panellists Frank Skinner and Rhod Gilbert to watch the eight celebrity acts battle it out for the title.
Phillips told Rivron: "Rowland, you are my weapon of massive choice. You have style dripping off you like molten lava and those stalk walks - watch out I'm going to be stalking you."
Skinner added: "The message to any young people watching this is don't be afraid of middle age - it can be very beautiful. I'd like to learn that and do it every day. I totally loved it."
The climax of the fundraising series also saw American songstress Katy Perry perform her new single Part Of Me and JLS sing their official Sport Relief track Proud.
Other contestants who performed in tonight's finale, which raised money for Sport Relief, included Eddie "The Eagle" Edwards, Fatima Whitbread and EastEnders actresses Tameka Empson and Laurie Brett who recreated Lady GaGa's Telephone promo.
Phillips, 68, was famously dropped from Strictly in 2009, which led to an ageism row. She was replaced by Alesha Dixon who has now defected to ITV1's Britain's Got Talent, prompting speculation that Phillips may consider a return to the BBC show.

I grew up in Preston next to four housing estates and went to a school notorious for crime. A lot of the kids in my neighbourhood spent their time hanging around the streets nicking stuff and getting into trouble. For me it was all about the cricket. I believe that sport gives you purpose and direction and a sense of being part of a team. It's obviously far better to focus on something positive, as opposed to something destructive. Sport makes you feel good and proud.
I only saw it because I turned it over to watch Being Human. I was amazed at how terrible this dancing was but impressed he could remember it. I was also waiting for the heart attack it looked like he was going to have that may have improved it.

I thought he was terrific - of course Walken was better but he is a trained dancer - Rivron jumped off a table (albeit lower than Walken's) took the luggage trolley for a spin and did both without a stunt double.

We actually pay to watch this kind of thing, don't we?
When my TV license needs renewal - I'll be throwing it in the bin. You pay for the signal - not your TV or any catchup service (including Iplayer). So - let's stop financing garbage and media dumbing down by the BBC.
Tell them you've cut your Aerial cord and only watch TV catchup services. To do so - does NOT require a licence.
And even then; you only watch non-patronizing and fully independent news services. And no longer wish to pay to watch middle aged men trying to burn up the dance floor. ie. BBC.
Dr.Gabor Mate. Dr.Helen Caldicott. Arnie Gundersen. Richard Wolff. Leuren Moret. Just a few names you're unlikely to be aware of but which may just save your life. They have been filmed and are availabe at the usual portal for videos online.
Spread the word. Tell your friends and family. Information is power and your are being edited out of the true knowledge of what is going on. The truth sets us all free - but only if we are brave enough to dare to look at it.
So: are you feeling brave?
