Strictly star Lewis Cope has earned the first perfect score of the series, with one judge saying it was "as good as anything we’ve seen on any series".

The former Emmerdale star, 30, and professional partner Katya Jones performed their Couple's Choice to Creep by Radiohead for Halloween week.

After impressing the judges, he was given full marks, scoring 40/40.

Fans of the show were also left stunned, with one saying the dance would 'go down in history'.

Following the dance, judge Anton du Beke said: "Well, good heavens above. I could say it’s the best dance of the series and it is by a million miles.

"But that dance is as good as anything we’ve seen on any series."

He added: "There is nothing you could have done for that dance to have made it any better."
