In the final Ferdinand, 40, and his skating partner Annette Dytrt will perform a showcase number to Let's Go Crazy by Prince And The Revolution, while soap star Aston, 31, and Molly Lanaghan will skate to The Pink Panther Theme.
Springwatch presenter Strachan, 58, and her partner Mark Hanretty will skate to Don't Rain On My Parade, as performed by Barbra Streisand in the musical film Funny Girl.
Ahead of Sunday's show, Strachan reflected on the experience and said in a post to Instagram: 'Can you believe it! Tomorrow is the @dancingonice Final! The last time I will get to skate with my truly wonderful ice skating partner @markhanretty
'Remember, the final is entirely down to the public vote! And you can vote from the beginning of the show.'
She added: 'It's Mark's last year on DOI and he's been in the final 3 times but never got to skate the Bolero. I would absolutely love to change that for him.'

Singer Victoria Canal accuses ‘powerful, decades-older man' of sexual abuse, grooming in lengthy instagram post
Spanish-American singer Victoria Canal has accused a 'very powerful' man in the music industry of sexually abusing and grooming her eight years ago. Canal shared the shocking allegations in a lengthy Instagram post. 5 Victoria Canal attends the 'Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning' premiere in NYC on May 18, 2025. WireImage 'This is something I've never spoken about publicly, and have been holding for 8 years now – it has plagued my body, spirit, and mind, in subliminal and overt ways, for my entire 20s,' Canal began on Aug. 11. 'It was only earlier this year, when I was assaulted by a stranger in a rehearsal space, that something in my subconscious awoke (including many buried memories) and helped me start to understand the effects of what happened to me,' the 'June Baby' singer continued. 5 Victoria Canal has accused a 'very powerful' man in the music industry of sexually abusing and grooming her eight years ago. Victoria Canal / Instagram 'Today, on my 27th birthday, I am choosing my own freedom by sharing this with you all,' Canal added. 'I am letting it out, to be able to let it go. This decision feels so right in my body.' Canal, who was born without the lower half of her right arm, alleged that a 'very powerful' and 'decades-older man' took advantage of her when she was just 19. Although she would not mention her alleged abuser by name out of fear of retaliation, the pop star described him as someone who appears to be a 'loving, charismatic and principled' family man with a 'very active career.' 'However, behind closed doors, this person has a history of incredibly damaging behavior across the board, and has a team of enablers around him who have fiercely protected his image, perpetuating this behavior for decades,' the 'Cake' singer wrote. 5 Victoria Canal shared the shocking allegations in a lengthy Instagram post. Victoria Canal / Instagram After taking Canal under his wing, the alleged perpetrator purportedly began to touch and take pictures of the pop star without her consent. 'These behaviors progressed over a year, slowly keeping me more isolated in a highly unfamiliar and contained environment,' Canal alleged further. 'At the time, this person made me believe that if I ever told anyone what he was doing, my career would be over before it started.' Following 'a little over a year' of the alleged sexual abuse and grooming, Canal's purported abuser 'verbally admitted' that getting her 'in this position had been his plan all along.' 5 Victoria Canal at the Los Angeles County Fair on May 3, 2025. Getty Images for The Recording Academy Although Canal admitted that her world 'ruptured,' and it has been a 'long and evolving journey in reclaiming my emotional and spiritual health,' she shared that therapy, psychedelic treatment, talking with other men and women, and making art have helped her recover. Canal, who has been professionally linked to Coldplay's Chris Martin in recent years, also clarified that her alleged abuser was 'not among the mentors who have championed me since I got signed to a major label in 2022.' 5 Victoria Canal performs at the Neighborhood Theatre in Charlotte, North Carolina, on May 19, 2025. Getty Images 'These men have actually been a healing force in my life in being able to understand that not all people in positions of power abuse it,' the 'California Sober' singer wrote. 'These mentors have, among others, shown me that healthy mentorship does exist, there are men that wholly want to help, and I am so eternally grateful for that lesson.' 'Please don't entangle those people with this person,' Canal added. The Post has reached out to Canal's rep for comment.
