With the Strictly Come Dancing final just around the corner, we wanted to get the low-down on last week at Blackpool and what to expect in tonight's show - just for you!
So we sent Ricky down to catch up with some of the remaining couples.
Scroll to watch his chat with Hamza Yassin, Fleur East and C成人快手 star Molly Rainford.
Don't forget to let us know who your favourite couple is in the comments below!
Molly and Carlos
Molly and her partner Carlos are taking a positive energy into this week after finding themselves in the dance off in Blackpool.
It was their third time in the bottom two, but the judges decided to send Tyler West home instead.
Although it was a sad night, she and Carlos are feeling positive ahead of this week's Tango. Molly said:
"Luckily I've really enjoyed this week's dance because I always get worried after being in the bottom that I'm going to feel really nervous and not really enjoy the dance that much in the week because I'm just thinking 'oh no I can't be in it again' but this week has been so much fun!
"It's a cool dance to come back in with. It's fast with lots of energy but it's like, positive fighting spirit!"
Fleur and Vito
Fleur and Vito topped the leader board in Blackpool with a perfect score of 40 - the first of the series - for their Couple's Choice and they're hoping to ride that high into this Saturday's show.
The couple are taking to the floor to perform a Rumba in tonight's show.
Vito told us the choreography is really challenging even for him - but he doesn't like to do things the easy way!
"I have been very tough and strict," he said.
"I've had to make sure Fleur is able to stretch all the legs but at the same time you have to keep the movement very smooth and light, but grounded on the floor - it's like you have chewing gum under your feet.
"It's very difficult choreography but she'll be able to do it!"
Hamza and Jowita
Hamza and Jowita are the highest scoring couple of the competition so far.
They found themselves in third place on the leader board at Blackpool, but for Hamza he was focused on making it a special night for Jowita who had never danced at the iconic ballroom.
This week, they're taking on an Argentine Tango.
You can take a look at all the other couple's dances this week here.
We'll have more from behind the scenes at Strictly from Ricky in the coming weeks so keep your eyes peeled!
We want to know who your favourite couple is and who do you think will win the show this year. What have been your highlights so far? Let us know in the comments below.
