Strictly Come Dancing leaderboard: Who is at the top?

Strictly Come Dancing is back after the Movie Week. The couples are placed on the leaderboard.

Tyler and Dianne won over the judges last week. Tyler completed the London Marathon shortly after taking to the dancefloor. This week they danced the Charleston to Flash, Bang, Wollop! from Half a Sixpence. Shirley and Motsi gave them a standing ovation. Anton called their dance "brilliant".

Molly Rainford and Carlos Gu wowed the judges with their quickstep last week. They tackled the Waltz to One Hand, One Heart from West Side Story for Movie Week. Anton said Molly's footwork was good, but she could do a bit more in hold. Shirley praised her for her "beautiful frame". Craig gave an eight, Motsi a nine, Shirley a 9 and Anton 8.

Kym Marsh and Graziano Di Prima are at the top of the leaderboard. They danced the Charleston to If My Friends Could See Me Now from Sweet Charity this week.

Will Mellor and Nancy Xu are the top couple on the leaderboard. Will is favourite to win the Glitterball Trophy. He danced to Cry To Me from Dirty Dancing this week. Craig gave him an eight. Motsi scored a nine, Shirley an 8, Anton an8 and Anton 8.

Helen and Gorka are at the top of the leaderboard. Helen danced the Viennese Waltz to Hopelessly Devoted To You from Grease this week. She was given a seven from Craig and three eights from the other judges. Shirley was left "in awe" of Helen's performance.

Fleur East and Vito Coppola are at the bottom of the leaderboard. They danced the American Smooth to Part Of Your World from The Little Mermaid.

Jayde Adams and Karen Hauer are one of the show's same-sex couples. They danced the Cha Cha Cha to What A Feeling from Flashdance this week. Karen shared a photo of them on Instagram.

Richie Anderson and Giovanni Pernice were voted off the show with a score of 27. They danced a Samba to Hakuna Matata from The Lion King. Shirley Ballas said it was one of their best numbers so far. Craig gave them a five, Motsi seven, Shirley eight and Anton seven.

Ellie Simmonds and Nikita Kuzmin are at the top of the leaderboard. They were praised by the judges for their connection. This week they danced the Quickstep to Peppy and George from The Artist.

Hamza Yassin and Jowita Przystal are top of the leaderboard. Hamza has been a dark horse in the competition so far. This week he danced the Rumba to the theme song from Jurassic Park. Anton said he looked "in control" but felt he got "a bit safe" so the dance looked a bit "statuesque".

James Bye and Amy Dowden are at the bottom of the leaderboard. They danced to Hooked On A Feeling from Guardians of The Galaxy. Anton said James' timing was a bit off but overall it was good. Craig said it had no hip action.

Ellie and Johannes are dancing the Cha Cha to The Shoop Shoob Song (It's In His Kiss) from Mermaids. They scored 23 points last week and they hope to improve their score during Movie Week. Shirley wants to see more isolation and heel leads.

Matt Goss and Nadiya Bychkova are dancing Viennese Waltz to Hold My Hand from Top Gun: Maverick. Anton thinks Matt's improved from last week. Craig gave him a three, Motsi a six, Shirley five and Anton a seven.

Tony and Katya are at the top of the leaderboard. They danced to You Sexy Thing from The Full Monty. Tony will take on the Samba dance during Movie Week.

Strictly Come Dancing returns to BBC One on Sunday.
