Call The Midwife star Laura Main and Brendan Cole were crowned the Children In Need Strictly Come Dancing winners 2015 after performing the Twist to Tutti Frutti.
Laura, who plays Shelagh Turner on the BBC One hit drama, beat her on-screen husband Stephen McGann and co-stars Jenny Agutter and Jack Ashton to bag the golden Pudsey glitterball trophy.

Tess Daly was reunited with Sir Bruce Forsyth for only the second time since he hung up his black tie in April last year and the pair presented the prize to a delighted Laura.
“I feel great. It was such a group effort and we’ve had so much fun doing it,” she said.
Jenny and Stephen partnered with professionals Ian Waite and Joanne Clifton each danced a Waltz to Moon River, while Jack and partner Oti Mabuse also performed the Twist.

Judge Craig Revel Horwood praised Laura and Brendan’s routine as “clean, sharp and exciting”.
Despite being the charitable version of the dancing competition, Craig didn’t pull any punches when it came to the other competitors, comparing Stephen to the Hunchback of Notre Dame and blasting Jack as “kicking and flicking a little bit like a rugby player”.
Nothing could take the shine off the fundraiser, though, which raised £37.1million - the highest-ever on-the-night total.
Strictly Come Dancing continues with this year's contestants tonight on BBC1, 6.50pm.
