Sir Bruce Forsyth and Tess Daly return with the first of Strictly Come Dancing's show-stopping themed weekends. In a Strictly first they bring a little bit of timeless Broadway magic live from BBC Television Centre in London.

All the couples will be dancing to Broadway classics, evoking the spirit of the stage in their fantastic costumes and elaborate make-up. Will there be a fleet-footed Fred Astaire in top hat and tails among the star-studded line-up, or will there be a green-faced wicked witch? When Broadway hits the ballroom, anything is possible...

Tonight, all 13 remaining couples take to the dance floor in the hope of dazzling the judges and winning valuable votes from the viewing public.

The fearsome foursome – Len Goodman, Alesha Dixon, Bruno Tonioli and Craig Revel Horwood – are on hand to deliver their expert verdicts on each routine, and each awards a score out of 10. Then the voting lines open for viewers at home to have their say.

There's more chaos and mayhem in Justin's House this weekend as Justin settles into his new house and entertains his first visitors.

In Saturday's episode Justin (Justin Fletcher), Robert and Little Monster await a visit from CBeebies' Chris Jarvis. Robert is particularly pleased that he is coming as he knows Chris likes things to be tidy, unlike Justin! However when Chris finally arrives, Robert is disappointed to discover that Chris is even more obsessive about cleanliness than he is. But with a bit of help from Little Monster, things are soon back to normal.

On Sunday, Robert has been busy inventing and is very proud of his new hair tonic. Unfortunately, the tonic has some dramatic side-effects, turning everyone's hair the wrong colour. Nina (from Nina And The Neurons) comes to visit and tries to save the day with one of her own inventions.

Steve Backshall and Naomi Wilkinson head to Norfolk for another deadly dose of adventure and wildlife.

Naomi gets up close with the UK's smallest, but arguably feistiest, falcon; and the world's largest cat, the Siberian tiger, towers over Steve on its hind legs at an impressive three metres tall.

Naomi meets an adorable, if a little bossy, armadillo, and a seriously cool celebrity will be popping by to inspire and entertain, before going head to head with Steve in a Live 'n' Deadly challenge.
