Episode 9 of 10

It’s the Semi Final, with the 6 remaining acts all hoping to make it to next week’s Final, and for the first time the Dance Captains decide the challenges for their acts.

It’s the Semi Final of The Greatest Dancer, six acts remain in the competition but only four can make it through to next week’s Final. They’re all fighting it out to become The Greatest Dancer, win £50,000 and perform on Strictly Come Dancing.

The four superstar Dance Captains and their acts start the Semi Final with a bang in an explosive group dance to open the show.

For the first time this series the Dance Captains are in control, as they decide the Challenges they’ll give to their own acts. But what will they pick in the hope of guiding their proteges into the Final?

The live studio audience still vote if they like the performances or not, however it’s all down to the viewers at home to decide which four acts make it through to Final, and which two acts agonisingly miss out.

All this, plus another world class guest artist performs a unique collaboration.

The superstar Dance Captains are: Multi-platinum-selling singer Cheryl, Broadway and Glee star Matthew Morrison, Strictly Come Dancing Champion Oti Mabuse and choreographer to the stars, Todrick Hall.

The series is hosted by singer, rapper and former Strictly Champion Alesha Dixon and Jordan Banjo, member of multi-award winning dance troupe Diversity.

But who will become The Greatest Dancer?
