Louis Smith has been declared as the winner of the Christmas special 'Strictly Come Dancing' 2014 with his partner Aliona Vilani for the second time.
The Olympic gymnastic said that the first week of rehearsals were hard, but after than all the participants had a great time together, laughing and giggling and messing around on the dance floor, the BBC reported.
The silver medalist performed on 'Jingle Bells' with his professional partner Vilani and scored 40 points from the judges in the Christmas special finale.
The 25-year-old pommel horse specialist won the same reality show in 2012.
Rachel Stevens, Lisa Riley, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Chris Hollins and Russell Grant were the other contestants who competed against Smith.
