This Weeks Strictly Come Dancing Songs and Dances Revealed

Scroll down for the full list of song and dances announced for week 9 as we take the journey to Blackpool.

Week 8 saw Vicky and Kai bottom of the leaderboard after topping it in week 7 and unfortunately they became the next couple to leave the competition – on Vicky’s 38th birthday! Worst present ever!

Amber and Nikita returned to the top spot in week 8 with their Paso Doble. Who will top the Blackpool leaderboard – it’s anyone’s guess!

Tune in to BBC One at 18:35 on Saturday 22nd November 2025, straight after Alan Carr’s Picture Slam. Week 9 sees the couples travel up to Blackpool to dance in the fabulous tower ballroom.

We will enjoy a spectacular pro performance featuring none other than Steps!

Who will be in dance off danger? Who will be top of the Blackpool leaderboard?
