Strictly Come Dancing announces songs and dances for semi finals
Strictly Come Dancing has announced all the dances for week 12 – the semi finals.
Following the exit of Angela Scanlon in Week 10, and Nigel Harman's departure from the show before the live Musicals Week quarter final, only four couples remain in the fight for the Glitterball Trophy.
In a change to the regular series format, which usually holds an elimination episode on Sundays, the two dances per pair were announced on Sunday 3 December 3.
Here's who is dancing which dance on Saturday, 9 December, in the semi final:
Bobby Brazier and Dianne Buswell will perform the Paso Doble and the Quickstep.
Ellie Leach and Vito Coppola will Cha-Cha to "Mambo Italiano" by Rosemary Clooney and a Couples' Choice dance.
Annabel Croft and Johannes Radebe will Salsa to "You'll Be Mine" by Gloria Estefan, and perform a Viennese Waltz as well.
Finally, Layton Williams and Nikita Kuzmin, who scored the series' first perfect 40 during Musicals Week, will dance a Rumba and the Charleston.
Following Nigel's exit,Strictly confirmed that the public vote would be scrapped in tonight's episode, and no-one would be eliminated.
The actor had to pull out of the competition due to an injury, which he explained during last night's show.
"I was leaping off a rostrum and was about to be caught by some very handsome men, and as I flew I was Peter Pan, and as I landed I was in A&E," he joked.
"So I've done something to my rib, basically, and it's quite painful. I'm a little bit high on painkillers as well, but I'm having a lovely time!"
Strictly Come Dancing airs on Saturdays and Sundays on BBC One, while spin-off Strictly: It Takes Two airs on weeknights on BBC Two. Both shows are available to stream on BBC iPlayer.
Tickets for Strictly's 2024 live arena tour are available now.
