Dancing with the Stars returned with a bang on Sunday night, with all 11 celebrities taking part in this year's competition making their debut on the dancefloor.
Joanna Donnelly, Rhys McClenaghan, Elaine Crowley, Kevin Dundon, Yasmin Seky, Kayleigh Trappe, Mickey Joe Harte, Jack Woolley, Gearóid Farrelly, Aishah Akorede and Danny O'Carroll gave it their all for their first appearances on the show. It certainly looks like the competition will be fierce for the current run of the glitteriest show on television.
The first episode, which didn't feature an elimination, kicked off with a showpiece as the celebrities, pro dancers, judges Brian Redmond, Loraine Barry, Arthur Gourounlian and Karen Byrne, including presenters Jennifer Zamparelli and Doireann Garrihy impressed with an opening number to All I Wanna Do by Outasight.
The first couple to take to the dancefloor tonight were Mrs Brown's Boys star Danny O'Carroll and his pro partner Salome Chachua. The couple danced a smooth Foxtrot to Obviously by McFly.
New judge Karen Byrne said: "What a way to open up the show! Your frame in week one was very impressive."
Loraine Barry added: "I think you have a very good dancing frame. Lots of flow in the Foxtrot which is what you need. You used your feet well - I'd like to see more. You have potential!"
Next up was the actress Yasmin Seky and her pro partner Simone Arena. The duo danced a fast-paced and feelgood Samba to Oh Na Na by Camila Cabello, Myke Towers and Tainy.
Loraine said: "You need two ingredients for the Samba - rhythm and bounce. The hips were ticking! You need to get grounded and get more power."
Comedian Gearóid Farrelly and his dance partner Stephen Vincent brought passion and dramatic attitude to their Tango, which they danced to Training Season by Dua Lipa.
