Strictly Come Dancing: Halloween songs and dances revealed!

It's week six already…

Hot on the heels of David James’s exit from last week’s Strictly Come Dancing, the songs and dances for week six have been revealed.

And we can’t wait for the Halloween spooktacular!

After topping the leaderboard last week, Saffron Barker and her parter AJ Pritchard will dance the jive to The Police hit Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic.

But, after AJ spoke out to shut down rumours of a romance between the two of them earlier this week, it seems the only magic they’ll be creating is on the dance floor.

Elsewhere, Kelvin Fletcher and Oti Mabuse will dance the tango to Bad Guy by Billie Eilish, while Alex Scott and Neil Jones perform their Couples’ Choice routine to Ghostbusters by Ray Parker Jr.
