The competition is really heating up now as Strictly Come Dancing reaches its fifth week.
Unfortunately, the Strictly Come Dancing 2021 line-up will be one woman down tonight, with Judi Love having to pull out after testing positive for COVID-19.
Luckily, Ugo Monye is back after missing out last week due to a back injury. With 10 Strictly couples taking to the dance floor this evening, there’s plenty of action to look forward to – and TV theme tunes to sing along to, too.
