Layton Williams and Nikita Kuzmin

Layton, 29, and Nikita, 25, will be hoping to land back on top of the leaderboard with their Paso Doble to Backstage Romance from Moulin Rouge.

It's been a dramatic few weeks on Strictly, especially after Nikita and Layton had been topping the leaderboard each week with their incredible routines but in a shock twist found themselves in the dreaded dance-off on Sunday night. The duo were saved by the judges with Angela Scanlon and her pro partner Carlos Gu sadly going home.

During Sunday's show, judges Craig, Motsi and Anton all chose to save Layton and Nikita. However, head judge Shirley said she would have decided to save Angela and Carlos. Shirley said: "Well important for me always when it comes to Ballroom and Latin is the character of the dance, that it’s true to the dance, timing and quality and I would have voted for Angela and Carlos."

When asked by host Tess Daly about her time on the show, Angela said: "It’s been honestly incredible, I’m gutted, really gutted that it’s finished now, but it has been the most wonderful experience. I have made the best friend in this man [to Carlos].

"We have had so much fun, he is such an incredible guy. He has supported me and picked me up and made me laugh so much. I don’t know what to say, it’s been magical honestly – all of those people up there! My husband at home, my two little girls and all my friends!"
