🌟 We’ve got a special guest judge: musical theatre leading lady Cynthia Erivo.

The British actress became a phenomenon over the pond when she won a Tony Award for The Color Purple, and she’s since played legendary women like Harriet Tubman and Aretha Franklin Image
❄️ Rose Ayling-Ellis is playing it cool again...

She scored a perfect 40 for her Frozen-riffing ice queen tango. Now, she switches from Elsa to Anna for a quickstep to Love Is an Open Door Image
🕺Tom Fletcher is too controlled

Fletcher delivered his routine to On My Own ably enough but without the operatic emotion to match the music

A 7 and three 8s was a disappointing score

👞Rhys Stephenson is too footloose

He was perhaps led astray by the rebellious Kevin Bacon persona: he leapt ahead of the beat and got out of sync with his partner

A set of 8s will likely leave him in the danger zone

✨AJ Odudu is back on top

With a romantic waltz set to Edelweiss from The Sound of Music, Shirley Ballas said she and partner Kai Widdrington looked like they should be in a Christmas snow globe

Two 9s and two 10s means she's back with a bang

Dan Walker is definitely a morning person

The BBC Breakfast presenter lived out his dream of playing the Gene Kelly role in classic musical Singin’ in the Rain

Two 7s, an 8 from Du Beke and a 9 from Ballas - a mixed bag

🏫 School’s out for Tilly Ramsay

Her performance was the most committed of the night, as she threw herself into the character of Matilda

A perfect score of 40 💯

Can John Whaite find another level?

His Viennese waltz to Chim Chim Cher-ee from Mary Poppins was well executed but lacked impact

Rather muted comments from the judges resulted in four 8s

👑 Rose Ayling-Ellis supplied a right royal quickstep

Her Love Is an Open Door routine from Frozen featured lovely unique touches like the use of BSL in the storytelling

Three 9s and a 10

Television channels, airports and banks around the world have been knocked offline in a massive outage causing Windows computers to suddenly shut down.
Sky News’s breakfast show was not on air on Friday morning, replaced by archive footage.

🚨 #TwitterX Q&A 📣

Confused about Twitter's X rebrand?

Our Senior Technology Reporter @GazTheJourno will be here from 1pm today to answer all of your questions!

Drop them below 👇 Image
✍️ @GazTheJourno: Elon Musk has always wanted to create a company called X.

The first X was in fact an online bank he set up in the late 1990s - and its CEO was Peter Thiel. That company later became PayPal and was bought by eBay in 2002.
@GazTheJourno 🗣️ @GazTheJourno: Twitter’s blue bird logo has been with the site since its creation in 2006. Its branding has always been twee(t!), featuring the bird doing cutesy things including lifting up the fail whale on its ‘site over capacity’ page back in the 2010s… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
