Their hilarious way with words make them Strictly fan favourites.
And both Shirley Ballas and Craig Revel-Horwood were on top form again, following Joe McFadden’s sensational Charleston alongside stunning partner Katya Jones.
While getting a standing ovation and a whopping 36 points out of 40, Holby City star Joe got judge Shirley into a tizzy as she made a hilarious gaffe discussing his performance.

And a third said: ‘It put a smile on more than my face.’ Um…what? #Strictly.’
While another called Shirley’s feedback ‘crass’.
The pair wowed the judges and audience with their Charleston, an up-tempo dance from the 1920’s, typically one of the most fun, and most difficult to master.
Energetic performance: Aside from rib-tickling commentary, sharp-tongued Craig was also overjoyed at the dance, explaining: ‘It put a smile on more than my face, I thought it was absolutely brilliant.’
Dancing to Alexander’s Ragtime Band by Ella Fitzgerald, Joe and Katya were dressed brilliantly as toy soldiers for their high tempo number.
Meanwhile, Debbie McGee left Craig heaping praise on her as he bowed down to he for her tango to I Gotta Feeling by The Black Eyed Peas.
Commenting on the moment Darcey said: ‘That was strange’ but insisting that the performance was ‘amazing’.
Celebrating her 59th birthday, Debbie’s hard work was rewarded as she earned the first 40 on this season’s show.
