This week in Strictly: team t-shirts, karaoke and penguin impressions
The celebrities are (mostly) buckling down this week as the couples brace themselves for the show's second elimination this Sunday...
During last weekend's Strictly Come Dancing we had our first elimination. Iwan Thomas and Ola Jordan became the first couple to hang up their dancing shoes after just two live shows.
That means Strictly is serious now. The stakes have been raised. The show is no longer just about fake tan and glittery eyeshadow. This weekend the 14 remaining celebs are dancing to stay in the competition.
Luckily, Helen George has the support of her lovely co-workers on Call the Midwife...
While Peter Andre has been roping in his kids for a little extra after-school practise.
They might be dancing for survival now, but that didn't stop Georgia and Giovanni starting off the week with a spot of karaoke...
So this is how our days training begins! ? @pernicegiovann1 @bbcstrictly pic.twitter.com/hQuByxExMU

And Jeremy's been sharing his impressive fitness goals on Twitter...
