Having moved closer to the rink, Gemma has dedicated herself to the competition and improving, which can be seen in her latest footage.
As her professional partner Matt Evers supports her waist as she leans to the side, he then spins her round on one leg as she squeals.
Creative Director Daniel Whiston tells her: "I love that" and she replies: "Let's use it, there's something there".
She is then seen practising some dance moves while singing lyrics from Celine Dion classic It's All Coming Back To Me Now.
