Toy Story and Indiana Jones will be among the movies given the Strictly Come Dancing treatment this week.
Lights, camera, action! Hollywood comes to Borehamwood, as Strictly Come Dancing glides into the first theme-week of the series and Movie Week arrives in the ballroom.
This Saturday the celebrities and professionals will open the show in spectacular fashion in a special tribute to Rogers and Hammerstein, as they celebrate the golden age of musical movies in a magical group routine.
They’ll then hit the dancefloor in their couples for their third live performance of the series.
Simon Rimmer & Karen Clifton will transform into Buzz Lightyear and Jessie for their Toy Story routine.
Simon joked: “They’ve obviously looked at our characters and we’re clearly very serious so we’re expecting something deep and meaningful… Oh no, we’re doing Toy Story as Buzzlight Year and Jessie.”
They’ll be dancing the Quickstep with Simon teasing he really could go to infinity and beyond.
Jonnie Peacock & Oti Mabuse will dance the Paso Doble to Indiana Jones.
Jonnie confessed he was nervous: “It’s my nightmare dance. I’ve been watching everyone do it and it’s a whole body dance, you’ve got to do the steps, the position is so different and the hands…”
Oti quipped: “I’ll whip him into shape.”
The full routines will be revealed on Tuesday evening (October 3) so check back tomorrow.
As always, the judges will mark each routine before the public vote.
In the results show we’ll be saying goodbye to another celebrity.
Tune in on Saturday 8th October at 6.35pm with the results show on Sunday 8th October at 7.15pm on BBC One.
