Reality TV star Amber Davies delivered a show-stopping performance on Saturday's Strictly Come Dancing, earning a near-perfect score and effusive praise from the judges for her powerful paso doble.
Judges Hail a 'Thrilling' Performance
Davies, partnered with professional dancer Nikita Kuzmin, captivated the audience and panel with a routine set to the rock anthem “Dream On” by Aerosmith. The couple's efforts were rewarded with an impressive score of 38 points, putting them in a strong position for the competition.
Anton Du Beke described the dance as "thrilling to watch," while Motsi Mabuse went a step further, declaring it "perfect." Not to be outdone, the often-hard-to-please Craig Revel Horwood told Davies the routine was “full of fire.” He added, “You danced with purpose. I thought it was brilliant.”
The Stakes for Blackpool
The episode, broadcast on Saturday 15 November 2025, was particularly crucial as couples vied for a coveted spot in the following week's show. The next round of the competition will be held in the iconic Blackpool Tower ballroom, a landmark event in the Strictly calendar.
Another Celebrity Bows Out
The excitement of the night was also a reminder of the competition's intensity. The article confirms that Olympian Harry Aikines-Aryeetey became the sixth celebrity to be voted off the show the previous weekend, highlighting the constant pressure facing the remaining contestants.
With such a standout performance, Amber Davies and Nikita Kuzmin have firmly established themselves as a pair to watch as the race to lift the Glitterball trophy heats up.
