We loved watching the Strictly celebs embrace their inner movie star in last week's Movie Week special, but now it's back to basics. The latest batch of songs and dances have been released, and there will be the first Argentine Tango of the series, which will be danced by Love Island star Amber Davies and Nikita Kuzmin. We're also being treated to a samba to a Madonna classic and it seems like we're not leaving Movie Week behind us just yet as Golden from KPop Demon Hunters also features. See the full list here…

Even though Movie Week is behind us, Ellie and Vito are taking us straight back there with their Couple's Choice. The couple will be grooving to Golden from KPop Demon Hunters; last week George and Alexis also did their Couple's Choice to Soda Pop from the film. One fan wasn't impressed as they said: "KPDH AGAIN?!?!"
