Helen Skelton proves Grease is the word on Strictly Come Dancing

An improved dance for Helen Skelton and Gorka Marquez saw them gain 31 points from the judges on Strictly Come Dancing.

They performed a Viennese waltz to Hopelessly Devoted to You from the musical Grease in week three of the competition – Movie Week.

Judges praised their performance overall – with Anton saying he really enjoyed it, although Helen’s line was not quite correct. Shirley said it was the biggest improvement of the night, Motsi declared it ‘beautiful’ and Craig – their biggest critic last week – said although the finishes needed some finesse, agreed the routine was beautiful.

The dancers wore wigs – with Gorka sporting a rather large quiff – and Helen wore a fitted 50s shirt and cream skirt.

Odds of the couple being eliminated are 100/1 and Helen’s odds of winning are 7/2 after the live show this week.
