Comedian Graham Norton and Claudia Winkleman presented the 2007 contest from the BBC Television Centre in London.
The contest was broadcast in English and French languages, although France did not take part. Each broadcaster also had the option of providing its own commentators at the event. UK commentators were Len Goodman and Bruno Tonioli.
