Reasoning: Krishnan Guru-Murthy and Lauren Oakley opened the show slightly earlier so that the Festival Of Rememberance could air later in the evening
Strictly Come Dancing aired a little earlier on Saturday November 11 at 6.05pm on BBC One.
The schedule change was to accommodate the Festival Of Rememberance, which will air later in the evening.
Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman once again presented the glitzy show, while Shirley Ballas, Anton Du Beke, Motsi Mabuse and Craig Revel-Horwood appeared on the judging panel.
Krishnan Guru-Murthy and Lauren Oakley opened the show dancing a Samba to Bamboléo by Gipsy Kings, while Layton Williams and his partner Nikita Kuzmin closed the show with an Argentine Tango.
Week eight was an extra special week for the remaining couples who competed harder than ever in the hope of making it to next week’s show and getting the chance to dance in the iconic Blackpool Tower Ballroom.
It’s been quite a week for the Strictly pros after Vito Coppola ‘confirmed’ his romance with partner Ellie Leach, calling her ‘my baby’ in a seductive Instagram post.
The Italian, 31, posed in the sultry black and white photo as he flexed his tattooed muscles and captioned the upload: ‘Just finished another day of rehearsals. Well done to my baby Ellie Leach.’
Dianne Buswell broke her silence on what her boyfriend Joe Sugg thinks about her close friendship with Bobby Brazer, saying he is “supportive.”

Split: Karen Hauer and her estranged husband Jordan Wyn-Jones married last year, but split after just 16 months after a difficult time
And Jordan Wyn-Jones, Karen Hauer’s estranged husband, spoke out and accused Strictly of ruining the couple’s relationship.
The couple who married last year split after just 16 months after going through a difficult time.
Jordan revealed that their relationship became a series of video calls due to her demanding schedule and tour.
He said: ‘We wanted different things. There was a plan to have children, but there was no plan.
“When we first met, we discussed it. You say things like: ‘I want to have children’. And she had told me that she would like to have children with me. But in the interview, Karen said, “Children are not the future” – which made me sad. I’ve always wanted to be a father.
‘I wouldn’t say it was a shock, but I knew subconsciously in the back of my mind…why would she want to have a child with me?
‘I had become vacant in our relationship. I was loving and caring towards her, but I was vacant because of the situation we were in.”
