Week 7
The competition heats up as the remaining couples take to the floor, performing either a ballroom or Latin dance. The couples will hope to book a place in the next show, but there are only nine places up for grabs so they must impress the judges and the audience at home. The two couples with the lowest combined judges' scores and viewer votes face the dreaded dance-off. One unlucky couple will reach the end of their journey as they leave the competition for good. While they anxiously wait for the result, the UK's rising stars of ballroom strut their stuff, and the professional dancers have a treat in store. Plus, music from the Bee Gees.
