Davood and Nadiya perform an Argentine Tango to The Phantom Of The Opera from The Phantom Of The Opera

Joe and Katya will Samba to Money Monday from Cabaret

Alexandra and Gorka dance the Charleston to Supercalifragilistic from Mary Poppins

Debbie and Giovanni perform an American Smooth to Memory from Cats

Gemma and Aljaz will Quickstep to Hello Dolly! from Hello Dolly!

Mollie and AJ dance the Rumba to I Dreamed A Dream from Les Miserablés



Interestingly, some outlets have Mollie dancing to Hopelessly Devoted to You from Grease. As we all know, that's the worst song in Grease. Even worse than Beauty School Dropout. So I believe there's been an objection there somewhere.

Have to say, this looks like a classic week. Before looking at the training footage, expect Alexandra to top the leaderboard, if she doesn't do her pigeon toe thing.

Davood is the third celeb to get the AT. Other two got 38. No pressure lad.

Gemma has lovely feet but might struggle a touch with her head and frame in quickstep. Judges will be clinical if she isn't.

At any stage do the couples pick their own dances / music?

In the final, they usually get the chance to pick one of the dances they've done previously (format tends to get tinkered with each year).

The showdance also happens in the final. That's any song and any dance, with no rules (doesn't have to be ballroom or latin).

Theresa May says she is "cheering on Debbie".

I'm not entirely convinced that will aid Miss McGee's cause, to be honest.

Judges agree.

She nearly fell over at the start and made a mistake after the standing spins at the end, but the fab four at the helm gave nothing but fawning gush.

The rest of the dance was nice, but 39 is a farce.

They noticed Davood making the same error of course.

Certain that they're protecting Debbie and Alexandra.

Joe was magnificent. An incredible routine.

Davood did struggle with balance, but his strength is phenomenal for a non-dancer. He's going to have to do it again tomorrow night, I suspect. And do it better.

My guess would be against Mollie, as I hope the public realise Gemma was very harshly marked.

Note to self:

It is ok to do an American Smooth without a single step in ballroom hold. You can score 40.

Alexandra not coming across well. Can't imagine she gets public support.

Debbie: brutal from the judges to give her a salsa. Hardest dance for a woman. She was all over the place in the middle. Not getting through the floor and figure 8 rotation. Weak. Flat back and stumbly off the lifts. Still 8s and 9s though. It was good.

Alexandra meanwhile got an easy draw. Judges still fawning over their favourite two, mind.

Gemma: so, so good. That's as good a paso as I've seen on Strictly. Incredible power and storytelling.

Contender?

Joe: such a shame about the end, where he made a mistake. It was a nice dance, but not particularly well executed dance.

The fleckerl was very nice: he danced it around Katya, which was clever choreography.

His floor coverage is astonishing.

Big mistake for Alexandra to jive.

She isn't as good as the finalists who've won win jives:

- Jill Halfpenny
- Jay McGuinness
- Ore Oduba

World of difference in the weight position and leg retraction.

The public can see through this rubbish, judges.

Sad thing is she's the best overall dancer in the competition.
