TV presenter Dan Walker was the star of the show at Prom Praise 2024, when he not only hosted the online livestream for the event, but also danced with professional Strictly Come Dancing dancer Nadiya Bychkova, to the theme from Chariots of Fire.
The 2024 edition of Prom Praise took place at the Royal Albert Hall and, in celebration of the 100-year anniversary of the Paris Olympic Games in 1924, took its theme from the 1981 film, which charts the story of Scottish Olympic runner Eric Liddell, who famously refused to run the 100-metre race on a Sunday because of his Christian beliefs, even despite being put under pressure by the Prince of Wales. Instead, he ran the 400 metres, set a record time and won the gold medal.
Walker danced with Bychkova, in what he told his followers on X was a Viennese Waltz crossed with an American Smooth Fusion, to the film’s iconic soundtrack, played by an orchestra which leads the musical ministry at All Souls Langham Place.
