Hello and welcome to Strictly Come Dancing!

Last time we met our celebrities, professionals, and later couples!!!

This time, our 12 couples will be dancing a Cha-Cha-Cha, a Waltz, a Jive or a Tango!! First tonight is Loose Women panellist Jane Moore & Gorka Marquez with a Cha-Cha-Cha!

JANE & GORKA - CHA-CHA-CHA TO "CHAKA KHAN"

Craig: 4
Anton: 6
Darcey: 5
Bruno: 6
Total: 21

Anton:
Well, you certainly know how to shake that booty! You had fun out there, and that is ALL that matters! However, you did pick up some mistakes along the way. A tip for you - in next week's American Smooth, try stay stable in those lifts - and don't be TOO ambitious!

A good start for Jane & Gorka! Next up is Emmerdale actor Michael Parr & Joanne Clifton with a Waltz!

MICHAEL & JOANNE - WALTZ TO "K.K WALTZ"

Craig: 6
Anton: 7
Darcey: 7
Bruno: 7
Total: 27

Darcey:
That was a very unusual Waltz, normally very classy, but you brought the modern out in the Waltz! Well done! It was very good and you had your moments where you slipped up, but you did better after.

An amazing score for Michael & Joanne! Next up is comedian Nina Conti & Kevin Clifton with a Cha-Cha-Cha!

NINA & KEVIN - CHA-CHA-CHA TO "WANT TO WANT ME"

Craig: 5
Anton: 7
Darcey: 6
Bruno: 7
Total: 25

Craig:
I found it very boring, dahling. No facial expressions, and you were dancing on bent knees. You seemed to be enjoying yourself, and the Cha-Cha-Cha steps were brilliant!

Second on the leaderboard for Nina & Kevin! Fourth tonight is chef Gordon Ramsay & Natalie Lowe with a Waltz!

GORDON & NATALIE - WALTZ TO "LEAN ON ME"

Craig: 5
Anton: 6
Darcey: 6
Bruno: 5
Total: 22

Bruno:
That was absolutely AMAZING, Gordon! You were SO much better than I thought you'd be! But you must have a better posture, so please get better at that for next week's Charleston!

An alright score for Gordon & Natalie, next up is singer Cliff Richard & Chloe Hewitt with a Cha-Cha-Cha!!

CLIFF & CHLOE - CHA-CHA-CHA TO "LOVE SHACK"

Craig: 4
Anton: 5
Darcey: 6
Bruno: 5
Total: 20

Anton:
Well done, Cliff! You were in time, enjoying yourself, absolutely fine!!! You were unfortunately mucking the steps up ALOT, and you will HAVE to improve or you might be eliminated next week!!

Not a very good score for Cliff. Will TOWIE's Gemma Collins & Aljaz Skorjanec do better with the first Jive of the series?

GEMMA & ALJAZ - JIVE TO "WE GOT THE BEAT"

Craig: 6
Anton: 6
Darcey: 6
Bruno: 6
Total: 24

Darcey:
You certainly have got the beat, Gemma! You are very entertaining!! And- *Bruno falls off chair* HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHA!!!!! You were so funny at the end when you fell over!!!!

Silly Gemma! Next up is Coronation Street actress Jennie McAlpine & Brendan Cole with the first Tango of the series!!

JENNIE & BRENDAN - TANGO TO "BEAT IT"

Craig: 6
Anton: 7
Darcey: 6
Bruno: 6
Total: 25

Bruno:
Whew! What a Tango! You were A-MA-ZING!!!!!! You were zinging around that dancefloor - WHACK! You turned around. You were in time, so GOOD!

A stunning score for Jennie! Next up is TV presenter Joe Swash & Karen Clifton with a Jive!

JOE & KAREN - JIVE TO "IBIZA SWING"

Craig: 5
Anton: 5
Darcey: 5
Bruno: 5
Total: 20

Craig:
That was A complete and utter NIGHTMARE! You were flat-footed, and you seemed very ANGRY!

Shut up Craig! Geez, he can be annoying sometimes. Next up is former One Direction band member Zayn Malik & Oti Mabuse with a Waltz!

ZAYN & OTI - WALTZ TO "PILLOWTALK"

Craig: 7
Anton: 9
Darcey: 6
Bruno: 6
Total: 28

Darcey:
Well done, Zayn! But it seemed, weird... waltzing to a song like that. I can't give you high marks because you missed out a lot of key moves in a Waltz! Could've been better.

Darcey may not have liked it, but that puts Zayn at the top of the leaderboard! Former Bond star Daniel Craig & Janette Manrara are up next with a Tango, will they do well?

DANIEL & JANETTE - TANGO TO "CAN'T STOP THE FEELING"

Craig: 5
Anton: 7
Darcey: 6
Bruno: 6
Total: 24

Bruno:
That was VERY surprising! But you tripped Janette over, so you can't get 10S!

Well, Daniel just did very well! Our penultimate couple is TV presenter Stacey Soloman & Pasha Kovalev!

STACEY & PASHA - JIVE TO "DEAR FUTURE HUSBAND"

Craig: 6
Anton: 7
Darcey: 7
Bruno: 7
Total: 27

Anton:
That was SO amazing!

Short & Sweet - I like it! Finally, singer Rita Ora & A.J Pritchard will Tango!

RITA & A.J - TANGO TO "GERONIMO"

Craig: 7
Anton: 7
Darcey: 7
Bruno: 8
Total: 29

Bruno:
WOOOOOOO! SO AMAZING!!!!!!!!! BEST WEEK ONE DANCE EVER!

All of our couples have danced, so let's take a look at the leaderboard!!

1st- Rita Ora & A.J Pritchard - 29
2nd- Zayn Malik & Oti Mabuse - 28
=3rd- Michael Parr & Joanne Clifton - 27
=3rd- Stacey Soloman & Pasha Kovalev - 27
