James Jordan, 2019

James Jordan and Alexandra Schauman won 2019's trophy despite some fierce competition from Love Island's Wes Nelson and his partner, last year's winning professional Vanessa Bauer.Judges called their rendition of the famous Bolero "the best the show had ever seen" despite the first dance of the final failing to top the leader board. Early on in the 2019 competition, James was criticized for having an unfair advantage over the other contestants because of his extensive dancing experience.

Joe Swash, 2020

Joe Swash and Alex Murphy took home the 2020 trophy, despite Diversity's Peri Kiely being the bookies favourite since the beginning of the competition.However, it wasn't all plain sailing for Joe throughout the competition. Not only did he find himself at the bottom of the leaderboard in week three and have an ear infection, he also had to swap professional dance partners after Alexandra Schauman fell and injured herself during rehearsals, forcing her to drop out of the show.

The Judges Challenge have set the following rules about this weekend's show:

  • The couples must incorporate a sequence that must go from one end of the rink to the other

  • They must be perfectly mirrored and in unison with each other

  • The couples can't hold on to each other or be touching in any way - so the celebs will essentially have 30 seconds of solo skating

  • The routine must include four lobes - four semi-circle loops

EEK!

This comes after the news that each of the remaining couples will face a DOUBLE elimination this week - meaning that TWO of the couples will be leaving the show on Sunday.

We'll have no fingernails left if they don't let up with all this drama!
