One of the highlights of Sunday's classic Dancing with the Stars final saw the cast of Riverdance teaming up with former DWTS contestants for a performance of the showstopper.

Marty Morrissey, Bernard O'Shea, Cliona Hagan, Ryan Andrews, Brian Dowling, Lottie Ryan, and Ellen Keane joined the Riverdance professionals on the night - and the cheer at the end sounded as loud as the one in The Point all those years ago.

Among those watching on was another Dancing with the Stars favourite, Suzanne Jackson, who had intended to take part in the performance before sustaining an ankle injury.

"These dancers are amazing," said Bernard O'Shea after the standing ovation, "the only reason me and Marty are here is we're the eye candy!"

Riverdance, without their Dancing with the Stars pals, will be back in Dublin's Gaiety Theatre from June.
