It’s semi-final weekend in the ballroom, and the pressure is on as the remaining couples take on two brand-new routines each.

Judges Craig Revel Horwood, Motsi Mabuse, Anton Du Beke, and Shirley Ballas will share their expert critiques and scores, before it’s viewers have their turn to vote and decide who will make it to the Strictly final.

The points from both rounds will be combined to decide the top four contestants who will compete for the glitterball.
