Helen and Gorka set the dance floor alight

Last week, the celebrity contestants took part in the competition's annual Musicals Week. Viewers went wild for Helen Skelton and Gorka Marquez's daring Couple's Choice routine which saw them light up the dance floor with an incredible Cabaret-themed performance.

Impressed by their jaw-dropping dance, the judges awarded the dancing duo a total of 39 points.

Despite their mesmerising performances, Kym Marsh and Molly Rainford ended up in the dreaded dance-off. The judges ultimately voted to save Molly and Carlos after their breathtaking Charleston very slightly eclipsed Kym's electrifying Cha Cha Cha.

The judges eliminated Kym Marsh 

Speaking to host Tess Daly following her elimination, Kym said that she had loved "every single second" of the experience, never believing that she would make it to the quarterfinals.

Bursting with pride, Graziano gushed: "I will be part of your family forever, I think we became friends from the very first day.

"I know you've learnt how to dance, but I have learnt so much from you, you are a warrior. You're going to be in my heart forever, we're going to be together many times, because I know I have found a friend for life."
