Anglo-Moroccan TV Host Karim Zeroual Reaches ’Strictly Come Dancing’ Finals

Three finalist couples were competing for the final of the 17th edition of the British dance competition Strictly Come Dancing. On this occasion, each couple performed three different dances.

At the end of the competition, Karim Zeroual and his partner Amy Dowden failed to win the Glitterball trophy. The performances of former actor and Emmerdale racing driver Kelvin Fletcher and Oti Mabuse were more seductive to the jury.

In the semi-finals, Zeroual and his dance partner were able to convince the judges with a well-orchestrated Argentine tango. Result: they scored 36 out of 40. However, the Glitterball trophy slipped through their fingers during the final.

Born in London to Moroccan parents, 26-year-old Karim Zeroual attended a theater school in the English capital. He is the presenter of the BBC’s CBBC show. His favorite dances are Salsa, Viennese Waltz, Argentine Tango, etc.
