Ellie Leach and her pro partner Vito Coppola topped the judges' leaderboard on Strictly Come Dancing's Halloween Week with their best score to date.
The pair stunned the panel with their Salsa to Sophie Ellis-Bextor classic 'Murder On The Dancefloor', earning perfect 10s from Motsi Mabuse and Shirley Ballas, and nines from Craig Revel Horwood and Anton Du Beke, for a total of 38.

Ellie and Vito dethroned Layton Williams and Nikita Kuzmin, who had topped the judges' scoring for the previous two weeks but still earned an impressive 36 - four nines - for their Tango to Olivia Rodrigo's 'Vampire'.
At the other end of the table, Zara McDermott and Graziano Di Prima found themselves in danger after their Charleston scored just 25 points.
