Vicky Pattison scores nearly top marks after an "almost perfect" Tango at the halfway point of Strictly Come Dancing
She is just one point ahead of Amber Davies' fiery Samba - here's a look at the leaderboard
The show ended with a Samba full of "rhythm and bounce" from Harry Aikines-Aryeetey
Shirley Ballas says George Clarke showed "some of the best footwork I've seen in a Viennese Waltz"
Meanwhile, EastEnders star Balvinder Sopal performs her "best dance so far", as La Voix "brings sunshine to the dancefloor'
After being placed in last week's dance off, Balvinder Sopal is hoping to win over the judges with some surprise moves with a couple's choice routine.
The Eastenders star and partner Julian Caillon will be dancing 'til the morning with their performance to Ed Sheeran and Arijit Singh's Sapphire.
For La Voix, it's time to get the scores:
Craig: 6
Motsi: 8
Shirley: 7
Anton: 8
Total: 29
She placed third in the leaderboard last year, and she is third again. But with more dances to come, can she maintain her spot?
La Voix and Alijaz - a vision in pastel
La Voix cuts a confident figure in the Foxtrot with Aljaž. Smooth, steady and classy to the tee - and really, what more can you ask for from a Foxtrot?
As is tradition with La Voix, she can't help but make a quip - telling Tess it's "nice to see you dressed up for once".
A really "uplifting" Foxtrot, Anton says, but adds there might have been a "bit too much trot".
"You bring sunshine to the ballroom," Motsi tells her, but Shirley shares some criticism to keep working on her dancing skills at the halfway point.
The scores are next.
La Voix wasn't overjoyed with being called "flat-footed"
La Voix and Aljaž Škorjanec are up next, taking on the Foxtrot to Cass Elliot's Make Your Own Kind of Music.
They placed joint third with 35 points last week - can they beat that tonight?
The judges have spoken - here are the scores:
Craig: 7
Motsi: 8
Shirley: 7
Anton: 8
Total: 30
Alex said after this week's dance that she wished she could give it another go
Alex takes on the Paso Doble with Johnnes in full stride.
Motsi says it's the first time she's seen some "insecurity" from Alex, adding that there is no need for her to have it.
"You look stunning", she adds.
Shirley says it lacked a bit of passion, but that she executed her skills well as "one of the best".
The scores are up next...
After tackling her first lifts of the series last week in a Hot 'n' Juicy Salsa, actress Alex Kingston is turning her focus on the Paso Doble.
A dance inspired by the tradition of bullfighting, we can expect a lot of footwork and dramatic arm movement from her and partner Johannes Radebe.
The pair are dancing to Jamie Texidor's Amparito Roca.
The scores are in for Karen and Carlos:
Craig: 8
Motsi: 10
Shirley: 8
Anton: 9
Total: 35
She is tied with Lewis at the top of the leaderboard, but they are the only ones to have danced so far.
It's clear the fast-paced dance took it out of Carlos
It's upside-down for Karen and Carlos's Charleston this week. It's fast-paced, with all limbs on the go - not that you would expect any less from a former Lioness.
"I'm going to call you Kaz-Daz", Craig says, adding that she is a "right bobby-dazzler".
Motsi calls their energy "contagious".
And now, the scores.
Karen and Carlos take to the Ballroom to dance the Charleston to a medley of Upside Down by Diana Ross and Think by Aretha Franklin.
Last week saw Lewis and Katya get the first perfect 40 score of the series, but Karen Carney and Carlos Gu weren't far behind them with 38.
Lets see if they can go two better this week.
Now for the all-important scores:
Craig: 8
Motsi: 9
Shirley: 9
Anton: 9
Not quite the perfect score they got last week, but not far off!
What a start to the show from Lewis and Katya with their Cha Cha. On beat, on rhythm and with plenty of spins!
"Well yeah baby, I like it like that", Shirley Ballas says. "You did a grand job," she tells the pair.
Craig Revel Horwood makes special note of Lewis's brilliant hip action.
Up next, the scores.
Last week's perfect scorers are up first.
Lewis Cope and Katya Jones are about to perform the Cha Cha Cha to I Like it Like That by Pete Rodriguez.
Can they match the perfection they showed the judges last week?

Strictly is now in its seventh week, and nine celebrities remain in the competition.
As they prepare to take to the dancefloor, here's a reminder of who is hoping to two-step their way to victory:
Image source, BBC/PAAlex Kingston and Johannes Radebe are still making their moves on the dancefloor

Strictly Come Dancing presenters Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman announced last month they will be leaving the show at the end of this series.
Daly has hosted the show since the first series 21 years ago. Winkleman joined in 2014, having hosted Strictly's sister show It Takes Two since 2004.
We're now at the halfway point of the competition, and as their final ever episode (when this year's winner will take home the Glitterball Trophy) approaches, rumours about their replacements are circulating.
There's also no hint yet from the BBC as to who might take over from Winkleman and Daly, and it could be several months before replacements are signed up.
Despite the lack of clues as to who will take on the job, the bookies' favourites include The One Show's Roman Kemp, comedian Alan Carr, and former Strictly winner Stacey Dooley.
Other names being floated include It Takes Two presenters, singer Fleur East and dancer Janette Manrara, while Labrokes is offering odds on Holly Willoughby as a surprise frontrunner.
It was an uplifting night all round for Lewis and Katya as they scooped up a perfect score
La Voix and Alijaz barely missed a beat as the Queen of Hearts won over the judges during Halloween Week
An embrace for Ellie, the judges went Gaga for her performance - but sadly she left the competition
Vicky Patti-swoon performed a dazzling American Smooth that made judge Motsi declare: "You are a contender for the final"
Lewis and Katya bagged the first perfect score - 40 - of this series with a freestyle performance to Creep by Radiohead
Halloween Week has become a staple of Strictly Come Dancing - and last week's ghoulish episode didn't disappoint.
Actor Lewis Cope and his partner Katya Jones scored a full sweep of 10s - the first perfect score of the series.
Lionness Karen Carney and her partner Carlos Gu pulled an absolute (Peaky) Blinder, trailing close behind Lewis and Katya with a score of 38.
RuPaul's Drag Race star La Voix described the night as "magical" after a spell-binding performance bagged her and partner Aljaž Škorjanec joint third place on the leaderboard.
Gladiator Harry Aikines-Aryeetey seemed to be in the danger zone as his score of 26 placed him and partner Karen Hauer at the bottom of the pack.
But, it was Ellie Goldstein and Vito Coppola who took to the dancefloor for the last time, and what better way to leave the show than performing to Lady Gaga?
