They are currently top of the leader board on 39 points after their show-stopping Jive earned them the top score of the night.

But it was the end of the road for BBC Breakfast presenter Naga Munchetty who, along with partner Pasha Kovalev was voted out after facing Anastacia and Brendan in the dance off.
