Strictly reveals 2022 final songs and dances

Strictly Come Dancing has revealed the three dances each of its couples will perform in the 2022 grand final.

Will Mellor and Nancy Xu's exit from the semi final last night has left four couples in the running to lift this year's glitterball trophy, and the dances they are hoping will get them there have been named ahead of Saturday's final.

Hamza Yassin and Jowita Przystal, Helen Skelton and Gorka Marquez, Molly Rainford and Carlos Gu, and Fleur East and Vito Coppola will battle it out to become this year's ballroom champions, with each couple set to perform one of their previous dances chosen for them by the judges, their favourite dance from the series, and a new showdance routine.

The judges have asked East and Coppola to dance their Samba to Hot Hot Hot by Arrow; Skelton and Marquez to perform their Jive to Tightrope by Janelle Monáe; Rainford and Gu to revisit their Quickstep to Love On Top by Beyoncé; and Yassin and Przystal to have another go at their Salsa to Ecuador by Sash! featuring Rodriguez.

Favourite routines chosen by the couples include East and Coppola's Couple's Choice to a Destiny’s Child megamix; Skelton and Marquez's Couple's Choice to Mein Herr from Cabaret; Rainford and Gu's Rumba to All The Man That I Need by Whitney Houston; and Yassin and Przystal's Couple's Choice to Jerusalema - Remix by Master KG featuring Burna Boy and Nomcebo Zikode.

Strictly fans will be looking forward to seeing what the couples have come up with for their showdances, which are often the clincher when it comes to votes in the final.

East and Coppola will dance to Find Me by Sigma featuring Birdy, Skelton and Marquez will dance to Shine by Emeli Sandé, Rainford and Gu have gone for Kiss/1999 by Prince, and Yassin and Przystal will perform to Let’s Face The Music And Dance by Irving Berlin.

Strictly Come Dancing's final is on Saturday at 7.05pm on BBC One.
