Strictly fans get 'shivers' as Rose and Giovanni perform emotional Titanic-inspired routine

Strictly Come Dancing fans said they got 'shivers' as they watched Rose and Giovanni perform an emotional foxtrot routine together.

The EastEnders actress, who plays Frankie Lewis on the BBC soap, left viewers sobbing as they praised her 'perfect' routine, despite the fact she was unable to hear the music.

The pair wowed the crowd as they stared into each other's eyes and slowly moved around the dance floor to My Heart Will Go On by Celine Dion, from the Titanic movie.

Over on Twitter, fans praised the incredible dance.

"Rose & Giovanni got me sobbing into my prosecco and I ain't even ashamed," one person wrote.

"Oh my goodness, Rose and Giovanni were just perfect. I’m not crying you are…" a third added.

And a fourth penned: " Rose and Giovanni giving us as viewers one of the best dances on #StrictlyComeDancing without Rose even being able to hear the music. My heart. What a talent."

It was an emotional performance and even left the judges speechless.
