Strictly Come Dancing viewers were left "broken' and "in tears" after the professional dancers took to the dance floor to kick off Movie Qeek.<\/p>\n

Arguably everyone's favourite week of the dance competition, the show was kicked off by an emotional performance to celebrate 100 years of Disney. It opened up with the Beauty And The Beast theme tune, with the dancers slowly dancing before going into the quickstep.<\/p>\n

The music then switched to The Little Mermaid's A Whole New World, with Dianne Buswell taking centre stage, before transitioning to Aladdin's A Whole New World.<\/p>\n

The performance went on for approximately seven minutes and left many viewers teary-eyed and emotional. Many fans also thought it was a "magical" tribute to celebrate 100 years of Disney.<\/p>\n
