Strictly Come Dancing 2025: Current leaderboard and all the songs and dances for the semi-final
The leaderboard has been constantly changing this seriesStrictly Come Dancing is approaching the semi-final week after the shocking Musical’s Week, and the current leaderboard has never been more important, along with the new dances and songs.
In a shocking turn of events it was Lewis Cope who was eliminated from the competition last weekend. And while he has just broken his silence, the other contestants are already in full prep for next weekend.
So, with all the stars performing two dances, here is everything we know for the semi-finals of Strictly – including the current leaderboard, and the song choices for the dances.
Strictly Come Dancing current leaderboard
There are now only four couples left in the dance competition, with each of them one step closer to lifting that glitter-ball trophy.
But as usual, the leaderboard is crucial to helping your favourite stars get through. And as we saw last weekend, just because they may be near the top, doesn’t mean they are safe. So make sure you vote.
Currently, Amber Davies and Nikita Kuzmin are at the top of the leaderboard, with their perfect score of 40 for the Charleston. However, they did find themselves in the dance-off with Lewis.
Behind them are both Balvinder and Julian and George and Alexis. Both couples scored the exact same score of 35. And both got an 8 from Craig but a 9 from all the others.
Balvinder impressed with her Viennese Waltz, while George wowed with his Argentine Tango.
At the bottom of the leaderboard is Karen and Carlos. But they aren’t behind by much. There is only one point separating her and the couples above, as she got a total of 34 for her Samba.
