Strictly Come Dancing has released its full list of film-inspired songs and dances for movie week, which will see the return of Tom Fletcher and Amy Dowden.

The pair were forced to miss week two as they were isolating after positive COVID tests, but will make their way back to the ballroom this weekend with a Back To The Future themed Jive to Johnny B Goode by Chuck Berry.

Meanwhile, fan favourites John Whaite and Johannes Radebe will also tackle the Paso Doble to Klaus Badelt's He's A Pirate from Pirates of the Caribbean.

Robert Webb and Dianne Buswell are abandoning the more serious image they went for in week two in favour of returning to a funny routine with a Quickstep to the Muppet Show theme from The Muppets Movie.

Many of the couples have opted for family movie favourites: Dan Walker and Nadiya Bychkova will Foxtrot to Seth MacFarlane's Once Upon A Dream from Sleeping Beauty; week two score toppers Sara Davies and Aljaz Skorjanec will dance the Samba to Modern Romance's Best Years of Our Lives from Shrek; and Ugo Monye and Oti Mabuse will perform a Couple's Choice routine to Dwayne Johnson's You're Welcome from Moana.

Katie McGlynn and Gorka Marquez, who dodged elimination last week, will dance the American Smooth to Mel Leven's Cruella De Vil, while Rhys Stephenson and Nancy Xu have opted for Couple's Choice to P. Webster and J. Harris' theme from Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.

The remaining couples have taken inspiration from box office smashes, including Adam Peaty and Katya Jones' Rumba to I See You by Leona Lewis from Avatar.

AJ Odudu and Kai Widdrington have chosen an American Smooth to Whitney Houston classic I Have Nothing from The Bodyguard.
