Strictly Come Dancing’s current leaderboard has never mattered more – and neither have the fresh songs and dances coming up this weekend.
With La Voix suddenly bowing out of the competition, the BBC has rolled all the Blackpool scores straight into this Saturday’s show.
And because no one was sent home, every couple is still in the game, making Week 10 a wide-open battle for survival.
To ensure you’re up to speed, here’s the current leaderboard, all the songs and dances for Saturday. We’ll also explain when the Instant Dance Challenge is on. You can thank us later!

Strictly Come Dancing’s current leaderboard
There are now six couples sitting in the current leaderboard. La Voix didn’t take part in last weekend’s Blackpool Special and no one went home.
In a last-minute decision due to La Voix’s early exit, all the judges scores are being carried over to this weekend. The public vote went ahead and that will also be carried over.
Unfortunately, we don’t know who scored highest when it came to the fan votes. But we do know who is top of the judges’ leaderboard.
Currently sitting at the top are Lewis Cope and Katya Jones, with a perfect score of 40. Their Charleston saw every judge reach for their 10 paddle in Blackpool.
George Clarke and Alexis Warr are in joint second place. Shirley Ballas, Motsi Mabuse and Anton Du Beke gave them 10s for their Salsa, while Craig Revel Horwood held up a nine, totalling 39.
Karen Carney and Carlos Gu were also one point off the top spot. The judging scores for their Paso Doble were identical to George and Alexis’.
Amber Davies and Nikita Kuzmin finished the Blackpool Special in third. They got all nines for their Quickstep, which gave an overall score of 36.
Alex Kingston and Johannes Radebe scored 35 for their Couple’s Choice. This wasn’t bad considering Alex was nursing a secret injury to her rib at the time.
Balvinder Sopal and Julian Caillon are currently bottom of the leaderboard. They danced an Argentine Tango and scored a total of 33.
