This Saturday will see the highly anticipated movie night
Strictly Come Dancing's Pete Wicks is competing in this year's competition alongside other celebrities in a bid to win the Glitterball Trophy. He is partnered with Polish ballroom dancer Jowita Przystał, who has been on Strictly Come Dancing since 2021.
After two weeks without any public voting, the first celebrity was eliminated on Saturday, September 28. Head judge Shirley Ballas agreed with her fellow two judges that Olympian Tom Dean's journey would come to an end.
This Saturday will see the highly anticipated movie night where couples dance to all the favourite soundtracks we know and love. Pete Wicks and dance partner Jowita Przystał will samba to the George of the Jungle theme.

The dance duo answered a number of questions. One question prompted Pete to say ''we nearly had an incident'' before saying ''we're both still here.''
The question asked how Jowita approached such crazy lifts to which she replied ''just make it happen, the first time when we tried it I asked you (Pete) to stand next to the table and I said catch me.'' In response Pete said ''thankfully I caught her apart from one when we nearly had an incident.''
Pete also gave an insight into what is to come for the weekend as he announced he will be dancing barefoot. The Only Way is Essex star was asked 'How are your trotters holding up' to which he replied ''This week I'm dancing barefoot no shoes'' and joked that ''any of you foot fans out there are in for a treat this week.''
Discussing the biggest challenge he is faced with in this Saturday's Movie Week dance Pete told fans it will be smiling. He said this is because ''I am playing a character and the character that I am playing is basically the polar opposite of who I am, so I am learning to dance, learning to be a different person and trying to smile.''
Week 3 of the 2024 series will see the couples take to the dancefloor for movie week. The show will air on BBC One at 6.25pm on Saturday, 5 October.
