Strictly contestants to tackle Star Is Born, Downton Abbey and Kill Bill for movie week

One of the most exciting weeks of Strictly Come Dancing is just days away - the legendary movie week.

And the songs that the celebrities and their professional dancing partners will be dancing to have been revealed, with some surprising choices in the mix.

Catherine Tyldesley and her partner Johannes Radebe will be doing the rumba to Shallow from A Star is Born.

Anneka Rice and Kevin Clifton will dance the charleston to Woo Hoo from the Kill Bill soundtrack, while Alex Scott and Neil Jones also take on the rumba to How Far I'll Go from Disney film Moana.

Saffron Barker and AJ Pritchard have Everybody Wants To Rule The World, which they will do a paso doble to.

Chris Ramsey and Karen Hauer will foxtrot to Cheek to Cheek from Top Hat, while David James and Nadiya Bychkova do the Viennese waltz to Kiss From a Rose from Batman Forever.
