December 6th 2024.
It's been an exciting journey for Pete Wicks and his dance partner Jowita Przystal on Strictly Come Dancing. And it looks like their journey may not be over just yet as they could potentially make it all the way to the final. Despite not being the strongest dancer at the beginning, Pete has won the hearts of viewers with his dedication and commitment to the artform.
Throughout the 11 weeks, Pete has transformed himself into iconic characters such as George of the Jungle, The Joker, and Tony from West Side Story. He has also shown his vulnerable side by dedicating a dance to his late nan. Even though they may not be at the top of the leaderboard, Pete and Jowita have been able to shake things up and avoid the dreaded dance-off thanks to their loyal fanbase.
However, the odds are not in their favor as they are most likely to be eliminated according to bookmakers. JB Gill and Tasha Ghouri are close behind in the odds, but Pete and Jowita have one advantage on their side - they have been given favorable dance styles for the semi-final.
Sarah and Vito will be performing a Tango and Jive, Tasha and Aljaz will be doing a Waltz and Salsa, Chris and Dianne a Charleston and Viennese Waltz, JB and Lauren a Salsa and Paso Doble, and Pete and Jowita an Argentine Tango and Foxtrot. And out of all these dances, research has shown that the Argentine Tango has only resulted in one elimination in the past 71 weeks. So there is hope for Pete and Jowita to make it through to the final.
But it's not just the Argentine Tango that could work in their favor. Their second dance, a Foxtrot, has only resulted in two eliminations in the past seven years. In comparison, the current favorites Chris and Dianne have the riskiest routine with a Charleston, which has ended nine couples' journeys.
If Pete does make it to the final, there could be a special someone in the audience cheering him on - Maura Higgins. The former Love Island star has been in Australia for I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! but will return in time for the final. She has also opened up about her relationship with Pete, revealing that she misses him and is looking forward to their reunion.
So, all eyes will be on Pete and Jowita as they take on the semi-final this weekend. Will they make it through to the final? We'll have to wait and see. But one thing is for sure, it's going to be an exciting show. Don't miss the Strictly Come Dancing semi-final on Saturday at 6:30pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
