The competition is heating up on Strictly Come Dancing as the remaining contestants are now battling it out to earn their place at Blackpool.

Following Icons Week last week, this week the celebrities and their professional partners are taking to the dance floor with the hopes of getting through to the highly esteemed Blackpool Tower ballroom.

Amongst the performances on Saturday (November 9) was former TOWIE star Pete Wicks and his professional dance partner Jowita Przystal, who performed a couple's choice routine to The Best by Nicotine Dolls which was a tribute to Pete's nan who has passed away.

Prior to his performance, the TV star said it had been a 'tough' week for him as he admitted to 'crying more than dancing' during rehearsals.
