What time is Strictly Come Dancing on tonight after another stellar week for Karim?

Strictly Come Dancing's back tonight after yesterday evening saw some ups, downs, and outright shocks.

The BBC dance hit will air its Week Seven results show tonight at 7:15pm, with fans not sure what to expect as the competition heats out.

Another couple will be sent packing as the bottom two pairs, after the public vote, will battle it out in the dance off.

CBBC star Karim Zeroual and his pro partner Amy Dowden are sitting pretty at the top of this week's leader board after they opened last night's show with a stunning Quickstep routine.

The 1950s-inspired dance had judges fawning over Karim's rhythm, grace and loveable attitude as it won pro Amy her highest score on Strictly to date.

Michelle Visage and Giovanni Pernice, last week's show-stoppers, weren't far behind with an impressive 34 - their passionate and fiery Paso Doble to a classic Queen hit quickly became cause for applause in the audience.

Kelvin Fletcher and Oti Mabuse scored the same, as did - and here's the real shock - funnyman Chris Ramsey and Karen Hauer.

After a shaky (to say the least) start for the comedian, he's improving week on week, and after a characterful, colourful and undeniably fun romp to PJ and Duncan, the judges looked overwhelmed with how far he's come.

A solid week too for Alex Jones, who was dancing again with Kevin Clifton after Neil Jones' injury.

The Lioness took to floor to Marvin Gaye, and gave a strong effort after mixed results in previous weeks.

Three time dance off-survivor Mike Bushell scored his highest yet with his off the wall Charleston, while Saffron Barker and AJ Pritchard, and Emma Weymouth and Aljaz Skorjanec both earned a disappointing 26.

At the very bottom is Emma Barton and Anton du Beke with a mere 22 points.

Yesterday also marked the first night out of the competition for Paralympian Will Bayley after a knee injury, but he turned up anyway to cheers on his new mates.

Tune in to BBC One at 7:15pm for the Strictly Come Dancing results show.
