Strictly Come Dancing's Movie Week has arrived early, serving as the theme for week two of the 2026 series. All 15 couples will take to the dance floor for the second time tonight (Saturday, October 3) to deliver film-inspired performances before the series' first elimination.
Presenters Emma Willis, Josh Widdicombe and Johannes Radebe return to hosting duties, with judges Shirley Ballas, Motsi Mabuse, Anton Du Beke and Craig Revel Horwood back on the panel. Last week saw John Nellis and Katya Jones claim the top spot on the leaderboard with 31 points, with Delta Goodrem and Kai Widdrington hot on their heels with 29 points. Melanie Walters, Shaun Wright-Phillips and Sarah Storey were at the bottom of the rankings, each securing just 15 points from the judging panel.
What time is Strictly Come Dancing on tonight?
Movie Week kicks off at 6.15pm on Saturday, October 3, running for 2 hours and 35 minutes until 8.50pm. Voting will subsequently open before the first elimination.
The live broadcast will also feature the professionals performing a Zootropolis-inspired routine to Shakira's Try Everything and Zoo. The opening results show of the series will broadcast at 7.10pm on Sunday, October 4, running for 50 minutes.
