Loraine Barry, Brian Redmond, Arthur Gourounlian and Karen Byrne were back to give their professional and tough-talking reviews, but tonight’s decision is being made by the viewers.
And the four final contestants, Kayleigh Trappe, Rhys McClenaghan, Jack Woolley and Danny O’Carroll are all bringing their A-game to the dance floor for a final time.
They are each performing the favourite dances from the season, selected by the judges, before returning on stage for their show dance.
Irish Olympian Rhys McClenaghan and his pro partner Laura Nolan were fourth up to perform tonight.
The pair danced an outstanding Charleston to the Spider Man Theme for the judges’ choice.
Jack and Laura blew judges and viewers away with this performance in Movie Week, when they secured the first 10’s of the season.
The duo returned tonight fully embracing their chosen movie, Spiderman, as Rhys sported his personalised Spiderman suit and Laura donned a gorgeous Spiderman dress.
And yet again, all four judges were on their feet after the energetic dance.
Karen admitted she was “lost for words” as she said their performance was “pure and utter perfection”.
Loraine said it was “absolutely exhilarating from start to finish”.
Arthur added: “Rhys you have the power from head to toe, your power is mesmerising.
“From gymnast to dancer, to me you have movement, rhythm, in your DNA.”
Brian said: “Not only is Ireland proud to have you as an Olympic champion but we’re all proud to have you here with us on Dancing With The Stars.”
Laura and Rhys were ecstatic as they received a full score of 40 from the judges.
‘OUTSTANDING’
RTE viewers were all saying the same thing about Rhys as they flocked to social media to sing his praises.
Dec said: “It’s a privilege to see our Olympic Gold Medallist perform some of his medal winning moves on an RTE One dance floor!
“Amazing and different gravy and he had the perfect partner in Laura Nolan.”
Elaine wrote: “I think we all know who the winner is after that from Rhys and Laura. It’s so effortless looking for both and look like they’re enjoying it so much! Class!”
Polly said: “Outstanding.”
Another added: “Amazing dance.”
