The BBC show returned for its fifth live show tonight with Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman both looking incredible at the opening of the show.

Punam Krishan danced second with a Viennese Waltz
But fans think she was given the ‘death slot’ by bosses
After introducing the judges and the remaining celebrities, JB Gill and Amy Dowden danced first with a Jive.
Next up was Punam Krishan and Gorka Marquez with a Viennese Waltz.
But Strictly fans felt her placement in the show was a sign bosses wanted her out.
Taking to X – formerly Twitter – one wrote: “punam in the death slot again? oh they want her gone so bad #Strictly.”
Another tweeted: “I just said the exact same thing, that’s Punam gone this week because they’ve deliberately put her in the death slot.”
A third raged: “Punam in the death slot… they want her gone #Strictly.”
After she had finished her routine, Punam received a score of 21 from the judges, after Craig Revel Horwood told her it had “lacked musicality and energy in the body.”
But viewers were not impressed, with one writing on X: “consistently undermarking the women as well as putting them in the death slot is not a good look.”
Another added: “Those scores for Punam were ridiculous, what a way to build someone’s confidence.”
The scores come after Punam found herself at the bottom of the leaderboard last week.
The Morning Live star was saved by the public and managed to avoid the dance off.
Instead, it was between Shayne Ward and his partner Nancy Wu and Nick Knowles and his partner Luba Mushtuk.
The judges opted to send DIY SOS star Nick home and allow Shayne to dance another week.
