One couple struggled on Strictly Come Dancing this week
  • It was musical week on Strictly Come Dancing.
  • The judges gave out plenty of high scores after some cracking performances.
  • But one couple struggled and was left adrift at the bottom of the leaderboard.

The leaderboard for this week’s episode of Strictly Come Dancing has taken shape after the judges' votes. It was musical week as the stars took on classic tracks from the West End.

Performances included dances to songs from Wicked and West Side Story as well as newer favourites like Six and The Color Purple. Just six couples remain in the show as we near the final.
