Strictly Come Dancing has hit Musicals Week, and it's lining up some all-singing, all-dancing classics for the remaining five couples.

The BBC show has unveiled this weekend's dances, with the contestants taking on everything from Sister Act to Oliver!.

Among the performances will be Kelvin Fletcher doing his best Gaston from Beauty and the Beast, while Karim Zeroual will be Jiving away with Amy Dowden to a Hairspray number.

After that, Sunday's results show will see special performances by Beverley Knight and Frozen 2's Idina Menzel.

"I didn't see any of them 'technical issues'. I'm going to throw it out there," AJ said.

"They were saying sickled feet, I didn't see that in any of the steps. Obviously, the five from Craig [Revel Horwood], I was like, 'Oh Jesus!' I took that one to heart. The sevens, I'll take. A seven's good. It's a hard dance...

"For me, to come out there and have that positivity that Saffron had – I saw the mental determination of Saffron, that she could be in the final. She could create her own routines. For me, she is the winner of 2019, hands down."
