Strictly Come Dancing's AJ Odudu and Kai Widdrington were grilled by Rylan Clark-Neal after speculation of a blossoming romance.
On Saturday, AJ and Kai delivered a passionate Argentine tango to Edge Of Seventeen by Stevie Nicks, earning a standing ovation from Shirley Ballas.
She said: "This is for me about as good as it gets. World championship level for me," while Motsi Mabuse described it as "phenomenal".

Appearing last night on Strictly spin-off It Takes Two, AJ and Kai were asked about the romance rumours.
Host Rylan said: "The passion during this routine set the rumour mill going.
"Can we settle a few scores here, please? I have known AJ for many years, I know she can't lie to me."
Kai said: "If people react like this it means we're doing something right because that's the way the dance should be danced.
"It's was a very passionate song, a real fiery piece and very intimate.
"And that is the characterisation of Argentine tango.
"So if people want to think that, then great... but we were just doing our job and [AJ] did a great job."
