Strictly Come Dancing routines and songs revealed for this weekend

Karim Zeroual and Amy Dowden will perform the Salsa on ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ this weekend.
There are 12 couples left competing on the BBC Latin and ballroom show, and the CBBC presenter – who topped the leaderboard with a score of 38 on Saturday night (12.10.19) – is looking to continue his good form.
Karim and Amy’s routine this week will be set to Baha Men’s classic hit ‘Who Let The Dogs Out’, with the pair hoping to build on their almost-perfect Tango to George Ezra’s hit ‘Paradise’.
While they found themselves at the summit over the weekend, it was former ‘Emmerdale’ actor Kelvin Fletcher and his pro partner Oti Mabuse who "broke" the judges with their racy Rumba.
The pair sent pulses-racing with the sensual performance, but on Saturday (19.10.19) they’ll face a very different challenge as they tackle the Cha Cha to Aston Merrygold’s track ‘Get Stupid’.
Retired footballer Alex Scott avoided the cut on the last show despite finishing bottom of the leaderboard with just 23, and she’ll look to bounce back as she and Neil Jones deliver a Charleston to ‘Pump Up The Jam’ by Swingrowers.
Elsewhere, Catherine Tyldesley and Johannes Radebe will be soundtracked by Annie Lennox’s ‘Little Bird’ for their Tango, while Emma Barton and Anton du Beke will dance the Paso Doble to Mark Ronson and Miley Cyrus’ collaboration ‘Nothing Breaks Like A Heart’.
Viewers will also get to hear ‘Jump On It’ by the Sugarhill Gang this weekend when Mike Bushell and Katya Jones perform the Samba, and Chris Ramsey will Quickstep onto the dancefloor with Karen Hauer to ‘Let’s Go Crazy’ by Prince.
Model Emma Weymouth and her pro partner Aljaž Skorjanec’s routine this week will be the Viennese Waltz set to Whitney Houston’s ‘Saving All My Love For You’, and Michelle Visage and Giovanni Pernice are set to deliver a Rumba to ‘Too Good At Goodbyes’ by Sam Smith.
Saffron Baker and AJ Pritchard will channel Frank Sinatra and dance the Foxtrot to the theme from ‘New York, New York’, with David James and Nadiya Bychkova setting their Jive to Michael Buble’s ‘Such A Night’.
Finally, this week’s Couples’ Choice wil see Will Bayley and Janette Manrara show off their moves to Lukas Graham’s tune ‘7 Years’.
