Strictly Come Dancing has unveiled a first look at Sunday night’s results show, as the professionals are joined by Spice Girl legend Melanie C.

The popular ballroom show has been entertaining the nation every Saturday night since its return earlier this month, and this weekend will be no different, with the couples set to take to the dancefloor once again.

And during this week's results show, the professionals will be performing a fitness-based routine to Spacedust's Gym and Tonic, Meghan Trainor's Shimmer, and then Melanie C's Sweat, which – as can be seen in the photos here – will be performed in the studio by the Spice Girl herself.

Sunday's show will also feature a performance of Babydoll by Jamie Miller and Antonio Cipriano, marking their UK television debut.

The pair will perform their viral Babydoll dance alongside four of the Strictly pros.

Head judge Shirley Ballas recently revealed which celebrity has impressed her the most so far this season.

"Every week somebody in the bottom two has been different," Ballas told Radio Times at the Pride of Britain Awards.

She continued: "The top of the leaderboard keeps changing, but I am a little bit in awe of Graeme because I watch him training the dogs, and then to watch him be trained as a dancer with so much discipline is quite captivating for me."

Strictly Come Dancing continues on Saturday 24 October at 6:30pm on BBC One and iPlayer.
