Strictly Come Dancing has reached its quarter-finals!
Musicals Week has long been a favourite of Strictly fans as we watch the stars jive and foxtrot to our favourite Broadway scores, and this year we were in for a treat with songs from Mary Poppins, Six and the recent-smash hit Wicked.
We're now just two weeks away from the final, so all the dancers brought their A-game. So, who made it to the semi-final and who just missed out? Follow along with HELLO! to see the leaderboard and results.
What are the couples dancing to?
Tasha Ghouri, who received the first perfect score of the series last week hoped to replicate that again with her Argentine Tango to Ex-Wives from Six.
Meanwhile, JB Gill had a Viennese Waltz to Let's Go Fly a Kite from Mary Poppins and Chris McCausland danced a quickstep to You're the Top from the musical Anything Goes.

Finally, Sarah Hadland was inspired by the musical on everyone's lips, as she danced the Charleston to Wicked's hit song Popular.

Who was eliminated this week?
After landing in the bottom two once more, Montell Douglas was eliminated in Musicals Week. As she and Johannes Radebe competed against Love Island's Tasha Ghouri and her partner, Aljaz Skorjanec in the dance-off, the Gladiators star quickly learned that she would be going home.

She added that Johannes had been "a friend and a brother,” declaring: "I hope he’s in my life forever, because we have something very special."
Who left last week?
Following last week's performances and Samba-a-thon, it was sadly time to bid farewell to EastEnders star Jamie Borthwick and his partner Michelle Tsiakkas. The couple faced off against Montell Douglas, but the judges opted to unanimously save the Gladiators star.
© BBCThe actor had nothing but praise for the behind-the-scenes action that goes on, saying: "Not just everyone who you see in front of the camera, these four here (the judges), but everyone who works on this show, I have such a good bond and relationship with and that's what made me want to do this show, it's the people, not what I'm doing. I've had the best time."
