However, for this special episode, Nick teamed up with familiar Strictly Come Dancing faces for a special project. Anton Du Beke, Katya Jones and Graziano Di Prima swapped their dancing shoes for hard hats as they join the show. They came to the aide of performing arts school True Colours, which is based in Newcastle. The school teaches dance and theatre skills to over 500 children, some of whom have disabilities and learning needs. Nick and his blended refreshed team got to work on transforming their new and bigger home. However, one girl left the star in tears as she revealed her father sadly passed away just weeks before filming. Charis, 20, said: "I'm dedicating me solo [dance] to me wonderful dad." The school put on a show for Katya Jones, Nick and Billy Byrne, as Charis took to the stage. She performed to Ben E King's Stand By Me. It proved too emotional as Nick and the rest of the team were left in tears by her beautiful tribute. Nick could be heard saying: "Not a dry eye in the house." "He continued: It's clear to see how much this school means to its community and members like Charis." Viewers at home were also left touched by her dancing, with one saying: "Who is cutting onions?" A second wrote: "You'll never watch without a box of tissues."
