Strictly Come Dancing returns for week five of the competition tonight (Saturday, October 24) on BBC One and iPlayer. All couples will return to dance for the judges and viewers.
The judging panel of Shirley Ballas, Motsi Mabuse, Anton Du Beke and Craig Revel Horwood will be back to assess the performances. Presenters Josh Widdicombe, Emma Willis and Johannes Radebe will also return for another week of the show.
Australian singer Delta Goodrem makes her return to the competition after missing last weekend's show due to a rib injury. A show spokesperson said: 'Following her bye last week due to injury, we're delighted to confirm Delta has been given the all clear to dance again this weekend. She'll return to the Strictly ballroom on Saturday night.'
Goodrem expressed her relief and gratitude on Instagram. She said: 'I was gutted when the injury happened as I've been truly loving this experience so much. It's hard to be patient when you want to be full force again but I've been listening, taking things carefully and learning to appreciate the small steps. Heading into show day feeling grateful to be able to take a few more tonight with all the incredible help from everyone around me.'
Goodrem and her professional partner Kai Widdrington will perform a Rumba to Celine Dion's 'It's All Coming Back to Me Now' on their return to the competition tonight.
