On Kelvin’s jive, Motsi Mabuse said: "He made my life, not my day. What was that? I can’t believe it. Well done, that was out of this world. Amazing."
Whilst Shirley Ballas admitted: "I’m speechless. I don’t really know where to start. Your coordination was superb. You owned it, you gave it, you controlled it. I was impressed."
And commenting on Karim’s charleston, Bruno Tonioli told the dancing couple: "I told you a while back, you remind me of young Gene Kelly. This proves it."
Craig Revel Horwood added: "It was fantastic, absolutely amazing."
Meanwhile, professional dancer Anton Du Beke scored his first ever 10s in the history of his time on ‘Strictly’ with his American smooth to ‘Let’s Face the Music and Dance’ with ‘EastEnders’ Emma Barton, which Bruno dubbed "glamorous, glossy and sophisticated".
Craig told them: "Beautiful movement around the floor, elegant, grateful."
Whilst Motsi added: "You absolutely look divine and that dance was amazing."
Michelle Visage and Giovanni Pernice found themselves at the bottom of the leaderboard this week with a respectable 32 for their couple’s choice, street commercial to ‘Vogue’.
Craig said: "I loved the high styling of it and I loved the sentiment of it."
Shirley added: "A dance is an expression to music and you used it fully. I also loved the sentiment."
