Strictly Come Dancing threw an extra curveball at its stars this week, as on top of their normal routines, the couples also had to perform an 'Instance Dance' .

The twist in the format saw the couples picking a dance style at random from ones they'd already performed, before a mad dash to the wardrobe to pick out an appropriate outfit, before deciding in 10 seconds how to perform the routine. Extra marks were awarded to each couple following their dance.

The twist had been done on America's Dancing with the Stars before but had never been attempted on the British version before, but it's clear that fans loved the new format.
