If Strictly weeks were crisp flavours, live show seven would be ready salted: a 'plain' week by many standards, but a stand-out week for quality and flavour.
Let's consider the key components: Blackpool is but a mere two dance-offs away, and the tension is mounting as we enter the second half of the competition.

George Craig seems to have more identical friends to introduce and why oh why won't Nikita stop thrusting?!
This week we welcomed our first guest on the show, with Tori talking us through Amber's origin story on Strictly Speaking. And finally, we round-up an incredible month of The Celebrity Traitors by reflecting on Ed Gamble's sinister good looks.
