After weeks of contestants battling it out on the dancefloor the final of Strictly Come Dancing has finally arrived. The stars that have successfully clinched places in the final are Molly Rainford, Fleur East, Helen Skelton and Hamza Yassin, who are now all in with a chance of winning the Glitterball trophy.
It comes after the average scores of each couple this series were revealed by a fan site, with Hamza and Molly tied on 34.27 out of 40. But, when it comes to the total scores so far, made up of marks from each week, it's Hamza and Jowita who are just ahead, Chronicle Live reports. The figures were shared by another Strictly star, Richie Anderson during Thursday's It Takes Two
“And challenges are all relative. But yes, I’ve definitely found my confidence on that dancefloor. I enjoy it and that’s what it’s about.” Yassin has topped the leaderboard throughout the BBC One show but said taking home the crown would be like all his Christmases, Easters and birthdays rolled into one.
“And for some of it, you kind of have to act the dances. So confidence for me, I’m certainly out of my comfort zone. Speaking ahead of the final, she said: “Honestly, I never had any confidence in dance at school and the beauty of going to a theatre school meant that I could work while I was there so the majority of my time I was actually going out .
“You just never know what people are voting for really”, she said, “and then I think, again, that’s what makes the show so cool because it is really down to what the public think. The singer and radio DJ, 35, has delivered a number of standout performances during her time on the BBC show, including receiving the only perfect score of 40 for the whole 2022 series.
