Tonight’s Strictly Come Dancing 2021 line up, start time, songs and dances – Week 5

Strictly Come Dancing 2021 is back tonight – what time does it start and who’s dancing what?

Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman are back in the Strictly Come Dancing ballroom this weekend, as the quest to lift the Glitterball Trophy continues.

The 11 remaining couples will each take to the floor in a bid to impress the judging panel: Shirley Ballas, Motsi Mabuse, Craig Revel Horwood and Anton Du Beke.

As the competition reaches its fifth week, the judges will be looking for the couples to really show what they are capable of. After the judges have given their scores, the public will have the chance to cast their votes.

The two couples with the lowest combined judges’ scores and viewer votes will face the dreaded dance-off on Sunday’s Results show.

Tonight’s Strictly Come Dancing line up

Eleven celebs are left in the contest after five weeks however comedian Judi Love will not be dancing this week due to a positive Covid test. All being well, she will return to the competition next week.

The remaining celebs on the current line up are TV presenter and actor Rhys Stephenson, actor, and chef, social media influencer and CBBC presenter Tilly Ramsay, BBC Breakfast presenter Dan Walker, entrepreneur and TV personality Sara Davies MBE, cookery author John Whaite and McFly’s Tom Fletcher.

Joining them are TV presenter AJ Odudu, actress Rose Ayling-Ellis, former England rugby player and pundit Ugo Monye and gold-medal Olympic swimmer Adam Peaty.
