🌟 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

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

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
