STRICTLY’S first same-sex pairing Katya Jones and Nicola Adams partied until gone midnight after reuniting for their final dance.

They arrived at 38-year-old former boxer Nicola’s rented North London pad at 12.30am  — 30 minutes after strict Tier 4 measures came into play — following a boozy BBC after-show bash.

Katya, 31, and Nicola emerged just before midday.

Beeb chiefs insisted the pair were in a “support bubble” and broke no rules.

It comes as new champ Bill Bailey hailed his extraordinary dancing win as “one for the dads”.

The comic, 55, returned home to wife Kristin with the Glitterball trophy and a message for middle-aged chaps.

The show’s oldest winner said: “This says to every bloke in their 40s or 50s, ‘Don’t give up’.

“You can get up and dance.

“You can do more than you can possibly imagine. And having the strength and belief can get you there.”
