Who is latest celeb to leave Strictly? How well do you know your Strictly dances? There are 12 pairs left in the competition - here's what they all will be dancing to on Saturday...Helen and Gorka - Blue Peter theme tuneHelen Skelton left Blue Peter in 2013, after presenting it for five years Former Blue Peter presenter Helen Skelton will get to dance a Charleston to her own theme tune! It was written by composer Mike Oldfield especially for the show. Ellie Simmonds and Nikita - The Apprentice theme tune Ellie and Nikita get to dance to a theme tune that is already a piece of dance music. The Apprentice theme comes from a ballet of Romeo and Juliet. The pair will be dancing a paso doble - which is a pretty fast-paced routine!Molly and Carlos - Grange Hill theme Grange Hill was one of the most popular BBC children's shows - it started back in 1978 and was set in a school in north London. The pair will be celebrating BBC Children's and dancing a routine of their own choice to the theme tune. James and Amy - EastEnders theme ReutersKing Charles and Camilla visited the EastEnders set in 2022 James and Amy will dance a foxtrot routine to the theme tune of the BBC's most popular soap opera - which James has starred in since 2014! EastEnders started in 1985, and it's set in the East End of London - there's been 34 series since it first aired.Tyler and Dianne - Doctor Who themeBBC Studios/James PardonAre you a Doctor Who fan? Tyler and Dianne hope to put together an out-of-this-world performance to this famous theme tune - from one of the BBC's most famous TV dramas! They will be dancing a tango - hopefully with no Daleks or Cybermen on the dancefloor!Hamza and Jowita - On Top Of The World by Imagine DragonsBBC/Silverback Films/Alex Board/PA BBC Nature's next big project is David Attenborough's series all about the British Isles Strictly has chosen this song by Imagine Dragons for celebrating BBC Nature - which includes BBC Earth, Planet Earth, and all shows about wonderful wildlife around the planet! The pair will dance a quickstep. Ellie Taylor and Johannes - Casualty theme tune Casualty is a BBC drama set in a hospital. Ellie and Johannes will be dancing a Tango to its theme tune!Jayde and Karen - Ballad of Barry and Freda Jayde's dance will be celebrating all things BBC Comedy by dancing to comedian Victoria Wood's The Ballad of Barry and Freda. Fleur and Vito - Waterloo by ABBAHulton ArchiveIs there an ABBA song that you would like to dance to? You might be wondering how ABBA ended up on the line-up - it's all because of Eurovision! ABBA won Eurovision in 1974, when the competition was hosted by the UK in Brighton. Next year the BBC will be broadcasting Eurovision from Liverpool - which was recently chosen to host the contest. Fleur and Vito will be dancing a jive to Waterloo. Kym and Graziano - Ballroom Blitz by Sweet Kym and Graziano will be dancing to this song from the 70s to remember the BBC's dance show before Strictly - which was called "Come Dancing". The pair will be doing a quickstep - a ballroom classic!Tony and Katya - Grandstand theme Grandstand was one of the BBC's longest-running sports shows. It's not been on since 2007 - but it started back in 1958. Tony used to play for Arsenal and England's football teams - so he should be familiar with the song! They'll be dancing the Cha Cha.Will and Nancy - Line of Duty Line of Duty is a BBC police drama that has been very popular with adults - Will Mellor starred in the show back in 2016! The pair will dance a special Viennese waltz to the theme tune. The special Strictly show is on Saturday at 6.40pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
