Strictly Come Dancing was back for the fifth week of its competition, as the dancers continue to try and impress judges to stay in the competition. Tonight, paralympian Will Bayley and partner Janette Manrara performed a very emotional routine, which left Motsi unable to speak.
In the video-tape prior to the pairs dance, Will took Janette to Great Ormond Street Hospital, where he was treated for Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma as a child, which inspired their Couple’s Choice routine this evening.
As Tess asked the judges to deliver their feedback after the routine, guest judge Alfonso Ribeiro was speechless, before he told the pair that it bought “chills”.
He then continued to praise them, telling the pair: “That was incredibly inspiring… there are young boys and girls who watched that performance who know that anything is possible.”
Motsi Mabuse, who was clearly moved by the emotional routine, was unable to comment on the dance as she was left in tears.

She asked her if she “needed a tissue” before moving onto ask for head judge Shirley Ballas’ thoughts.
Motsi wasn’t the only one who was left emotional by the routine, as fans on Twitter quickly commented that they were “crying their eyes out” after the performance.
One fan asked: “Anyone else crying their eyes out watching Will and Janette? #scd #StrictlyComeDancing #Strictly”
Another echoed: “If you’re not getting emotional after watching Will Bayley’s dance then there’s something wrong with you #Strictly”
"Will is so inspiring honestly what an amazing man #Strictly #StrictlyComeDancing,” stated another.
Craig told Will of the routine: “Clear, emotional storytelling and an absolutely a complete inspiration.
“However, you do need a little bit more free movement in your torso, it will help tell the story… but I thought the whole thing… you were hitting with punch, purpose, with form,” he continued.
As the duo went off to join the rest off the contestants, host Claudia Winkleman told Will: “I was watching you, but I have to be honest, I was mainly watching your mum Chrissie who was in the audience.”
Janette explained that: “I love dancing contemporary, and the reason to dance contemporary is to do it with people like Will… thank you.”
