Prepare for a SCD first – Strictly is about to do Wembley! I’m so excited to see how the couples cope with performing in London’s most famous arena and I have no idea who is going to be in the bottom two tonight – it’s such a close one this year. Join me here for all the thrills and spills and remember to let me know what you think. Best comment of the weekend wins a TV Times mug!
20.13 Alex, Chelsee and Harry are at the top of the leaderboard with Anita, Robbie and Russsell trailing at the bottom. I could see Anita being in the bottom two again but no idea who will join her. Did you enjoy Wembley? Who do you think deserves to go home? Let me know below and you could win a TV Times mug!
20.11 34 – I think he deserved 36.
20.08 Such a shame – I reckon this would have been 10s if it weren’t for that mistake.
20.07 No!!!! He made a mistake, but a great recovery. He’s got so much energy!
20.06 Yes, they’re doing Wham! This looks very good to me…
20.05 Jason’s an old friend of Wembley – this should be fantastic…
20.03 35 – a fantastic score! Time for Jason – have they saved the best till last?
20.01 Great comments from the judges – ‘a proper samba’ says Len.
19.59 Hooray, Chelsee’s really into the spirit! This is really great! On the downside, this is a terrible version of Spice Up Your Life…
19.56 Time for Chelsee and my new favourite pro, Pasha
19.55 24 out of 40 but what an iconic performance1
19.54 Russell gets a kiss from Jason!
19.53 Brrrruuuuno loved it but Craig is reminded of Dumbo…. oh dear!
19.52 On a personal note I’m thrilled S Club 7 now counts as ‘Best of British’
19.51 The jive is a really demanding dance but look at him go!
19.50 What an entrance! Russell is rocketing across the stage!
19.48 34 from the judges, great score. It’s Russell time – I have no doubt this will be spectacular…
19.46 Last week they were arguing about his intensity in the tango, this week it’s his hip action in the salsa. Harry is proving divisive!
19.45 Brrrruuuuno thinks Harry is overdressed – ha!
19.44 Len still wants more from Harry…
19.43 Oooh they’re using the same music Jill and Darren used for their perfect jive. I’m loving the energy in this salsa!
19.40 Here comes Fit Harry…
19.39 Poor Anita looks disappointed with 27.
19.37 Not sparkling comments from the judges – fingers crossed people vote for her!
19.34 Anita’s got a great smile and this is a great attempt at a notoriously difficult dance…
19.33 Anita’s back in Albert Square!
19.31 31 out of 40. Not bad at all. Time for Anita. It was a travesty they were in the bottom two last week – let’s hope they can wow us all tonight…
19.28 Brrrrrrrruuuuuno feels Holly’s not fulfilling her potential – I agree…
19.27 This feels a little heavy for a quickstep. Am I being too critical or are the dancers are bit overwhelmed by being at Wembley this week?
19.26 Ooh a quickstep, hooray!
19.25 Haha loving the Brendan and Artem bromance!
19.24 I think James suddenly feels he can win. Here come Holly and ARTEM! Hooray, so glad he’s back. Bad luck, Brendan…
19.23 35! James is beside himself!
19.22 Brrrruuuuuno loved it, Len thinks it’s fabulous and Craig thinks Alex has improved!
19.20 Great music and a good go at the tango, but Alex’s head movements could be a lot sharper. I love the idea of Wembley, but the dancing feels a bit drowned in such a big space…
19.17 Yes, they’re doing a tango! My favourite dance – please don’t mess it up, Alex!
19.16 26 out of 30. I like Robbie, but I think that’s a fair score for that routine. How nice that all of the eliminated pro dancers are in Tess’ tower getting a piece of the Wembley action. Aww… Alex and James now…
19.14 Wow, that’s a long run to Tess’ tower!
19.13 As predicted, Len didn’t like it. Too much like the FA Cup final apparently… Brrrrruuuuno calls it a primeval fertility rite! Have they gone mad? Not great comments to start the show…
19.10 Wow, great jump into a lift there, Ola!
19.09 Len won’t like all this ‘messing around’ but Robbie’s definitely getting the crowd going!
19.08 Robbie’s up first with Ola in a trademark catsuit. They’re doing a salsa, this should be an excellent start to the show, especially as Robbie is no stranger to Wembley.
19.07 Martine’s building up her part – maybe she’s auditioning…
19.06 It’s a Best of British night…
19.05 Brrrrrrrruuuuuno is going to be on top form tonight, I can just tell…
19.04 Russell’s a vision in yellow, Artem’s back!, Harry’s in a crowd-pleasing open shirt, Ola’s back in the catsuit and Jason’s gone back to the Eighties…
19.03 Bruce is milking this…
19.02 Great dress, Tess!
19.01 Jason looks in his element, Robbie’s just looking for the goal…
19.00 That is a HUGE dance floor compared to the BBC studio – can’t wait to see the couples make the use of this space…
18.59 Everyone’s going mad for Queen at the moment – this is a great medley. Loving the judges doing Bohemian Rhapsody!
18.58 Wow, look at the Wembley crowds!
18.57 Haha Russell’s already got his feather boa out…
18.55 Here we go!
18.45 10 mins to go!
After her jive with Matthew Cutler on last year’s Christmas special, Fern Britton has told Woman’s Own she’d like to compete in next year’s main series.
