And so the first live show has come to an end! It's been a fantastic night full of amazing performances.
The contestants will return to the dance floor next week and the voting line will open. Robbie Williams will also be stopping by to perform on Sunday's results show.
Thanks for keeping us company and we'll see you next week!
The return of Strictly means the returns of its sister show, Strictly: It Takes Two hosted by Rylan Clark and Janette Manrara who are in the studio tonight looking as fab as ever!
And it's 7, 7, 7, 8, 29 for Fleur, putting her in third place on the leaderboard. Not bad!
Dancing the Cha Cha Cha to Let's Get Loud by Jennifer Lopez is Fleur East and her professional dance partner Vito Coppola, and what a way to close the show!
Craig thinks it was a little "wild" but that Fleur is a "fantastic" dancer.
Similarly, Motsi loves the performance, but thinks Fleur could do with "controlling" her steps a little better.
So, what's it going to be?
It's 8, 9, 9, 8 for Hamza putting him in joint first place on the leaderboard with Will Mellor - you go, Hamza!
Dancing the Foxtrot to Islands In The Stream by Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers is Hamza Yassin and Jowita Przystal.
Hamza said he wanted to emulate some kind of flamingo on the dance floor, so has he nailed it?
"We've got ourselves a ballroom dancer in the house!" Anton gushes.
"Who knew, darling?" Craig adds.
And head judge Shirley couldn't agree more, saying how "easy" Hamza's performance was.
And it's 6, 7, 7, 8 for Ellie, giving her a total of 28 points.
Well done, Ellie!
Dancing the Quickstep to Am What I Am by Klaus Hallen Tanzorchester, Ellie and Johannes show off their moves and what an enchanting performance from these two!
It's good reviews for Ellie. Shirley thinks her performance was "beautiful" while Anton loves the "Hollywood glamour" of the dance.
Ellie could do with a little work on her feet, but in Week 1 this isn't unusual!
The scores are in and it's 8, 9, 8, 9, for Will, giving him a total of 34 points and pushing him right to the top of the leaderboard.
Jive to Livin' La Vida Loca by Ricky Martin, Will Mellor and Nancy Xu take to the dance floor, and it's an energetic performance from these two.
If I didn't know otherwise, I'd actually think Will has had some dancing training prior to the show because for a first performance, he's really not bad.
Let's see what the judges have to say...
"I'm happy, I'm happy, I'm happy!" Motsi gushes, before adding: "I'm speechless."
Shirley is in agreement as she praises Will on his "power packed" performance.
"Honestly that was so brilliant!" Anton says.
And it's good news all round, with Craig admitting: "I loved it!"
Tony's scores are in and it's 3, 4, 4,4, giving him a total of 15.
He might be at the bottom of the leaderboard, but Tony still has next week to pull it out the bag.
Good luck, Tony!
Dancing the Tango to Go West by Village People is football star Tony Adams and his professional dance partner Katya Jones.
And there's some positives for Tony.
Craig says there's some "aggression" and "attack" and Motsi can see it coming together.
"You have potential!" Shirley adds.
Ellie scores 6, 7, 7, 6 giving her a total of 26 points and putting her in joint second place on the leaderboard.
Ellie Simmonds and her dance partner Nikita Kuzmin are up, and it's a Cha Cha Cha for these two.
And it's great comments all round for Ellie, who seems to have nailed her timing and is very "focused."
So, what will Ellie score?
The scores are in and it's 5, 5, 5, 5 for Matt, giving him a total of 20 points.
That puts Matt at the bottom of the leaderboard, but luckily for him, no one will be leaving this week, so he still has next week to brush up!
Time for some more performances and it's time for Matt Goss to show us what he's got.
Dancing the Quickstep to Sir Duke by The Chris Walden Big Band with his professional dance partner Nadiya Bychkova, Matt takes to the dance floor.
And it's mixed reviews from the judges. Shirley thinks the performance "fell apart" while Anton thinks there's a lot that's good, but he need to polish the performance.
Craig, on the other hand liked it and thinks the others are being "nasty." Craig, is that really you? I'm still trying to work it out, but that's great news for Matt!
Molly's scores are in and it's 7, 8, 8, 8 for the CBBC star, giving her a total of 31 points and knocking Helen off the top spot on the leaderboard - phenomenal!
Molly Rainford and her pro dancer Carlos Gu take to the dance floor as they perform a Samba to Kiss My (Uh Oh) by Anne Marie and Little Mix, and it's a very upbeat performance from the duo.
I mean I'm loving it, but what will the judges think?
"This was the best show for the night!" Motsi declares, as Shirley praises Molly on nailing her performance.
"Absolutely brilliant!" Anton adds.
And it's good news all round, as Craig says: "I can't wait to see more, darling!"
With a score of 6, 7, 6, 7, Helen climbs to the top of the Strictly Come Dancing 2022 leaderboard.
Go, Helen!
Dancing the American Smooth to You Send Me by Aretha Franklin is TV presenter Helen Skelton and her professional dance partner Gorka Marquez, and it's a very impressive start.
"Love the energy and you do have elegance, my darling!" Craig gushes after the performance, as Motsi and Shirley praise Helen on her first performance.
"You have a beautiful line," Anton adds, before telling Helen to "own it!"
Could Helen be the one to watch?
Richie's scores are in and it's 5, 5, 6, 7 for his first dance. That gives him a total of 23 and puts him at the top of the leaderboard - amazing!
The duo take to the dance floor for their Cha Cha Cha to I'm Your Man by Wham! and we can feel the energy from Richie all the way from home.
But Craig doesn't like it, calling it "spiky" although he gives full marks for entertainment.
Motsi wants Richie to listen to the music next time round, but loves Richie's energy.
Shirley doesn't agree with Craig that Richie was "stiff" as she praises his flexibility, but thinks he needs to take his time.
So, what will Richie score tonight?
It's 6, 5, 5, 6 for James, giving him a total of 22 points and putting him in joint second place. Not bad!
James and Amy are up next and they're doing the jive to What I Like About You by The Romantics.
Shirley wants James to "breathe" saying he made "too many mistakes."
Anton liked it though.
Craig thinks his upper body needs work and he needs to dance with more ease. However, he thinks he did a good job.
Motsi loved his energy and thinks he was very "economical" with his moves, saying that she thinks we could see a lot from him.
So, what will he score?
It's 6, 5, 5, 5, for Kaye and Kai giving her a total of 21 points and putting her at the bottom of the leaderboard.
Dancing the Rango to Voulez-Vouz by ABBA is Kaye Adams and Kai Widdrington.
Kai made it to the final last year with AJ Odudu, so the pressure is on for Kaye, who hasn't found practice the easiest.
To overcome her fears, Kaye has created the alter ego Fifi Latoush, and Fifi is in action wearing a stunning red number as she takes to the dance floor.
So, what do the judges think?
It sounds like the nerves might have got the better of Kaye. While Motsi admits she's improved since she last saw her practicing, Shirley says there were quite a few mistakes. Anton is slightly more complimentary, and so is Craig saying that the he thought it would be "dreadful" but he "absolutely loved it!" That might be the nicest thing he's said all evening.
It's 4, 7, 6, 6 for Jayde putting her in joint first place with Kym on the leaderboard.
Jayde Adams and her dance partner Karen Hauer Samba onto the dance floor in some boiler suits as Christina Aguilera's Dirty plays.
And it's a quick costume change as they rip off their overalls to reveal stunning, glittery dresses and really sink into their moves.
As their performance comes to an end, the audience gives Jayde a standing ovation, so that's got to be a good thing!
Well, not for Craig, but Motsi loves it and she praises Jayde for her "contagious" energy while giving her some advice.
Shirley thinks it's "terrific" and compliments Jayde on her "frame", but she does agree with Craig that the performance was a little "flat-footed."
Samba isn't Anton's favourite, but he loved it, agreeing that Jayde needs to work on her feet but her upper body is great.
Tyler's scores are in and it's 4, 5, 7, 6, giving him a total of 22 and putting him in second place on the leaderboard.
Tyler West is up next with his professional dance partner Dianne Buswell.
The pair are doing the American Smooth to Falling by Harry Styles, and the song has already got Tyler feeling a little emotional.
As they perform their first routine, Tyler shows off his spins and foot work and you'd never know it's first ever performance.
Shirley's on her feet as the routine comes to an end, which is a promising sign.
Anton Du Beke is in love calling the performance "gorgeous", although he thinks there's some "problems" that Tyler could work on.
"Pedestrian" is Craig's choice of word, however, he loved the lift and can see "potential" - wow Craig is that you?
Despite a few tweaks, Motsi sees "something special" in Tyler and Shirley says any woman would feel "safe" dancing with him, although he could brush up on his footwork.
