BBC Strictly Come Dancing's JB Gill receives 'stern warning' hours before Blackpool

JB Gill has been issued a stern warning ahead of him appearing on BBC Strictly Come Dancing for the Blackpool special tonight. JB has been issued a warning by Marvin Humes, his JLS bandmate, as he returns to the dancefloor tonight.

Marvin, 39. told the Mirror: "He's absolutely killing it. He's smashing it." He added: "I knew that J would do well. J is such a great person, great dancer, great artist and y'know he's my brother so super proud of him."

The Hit List host continued: "The whole family can sit down and watch the show. All of my kids love Strictly so for them to see their uncle on there is amazing and he's doing so well. I'm pleased he's made Blackpool this weekend."

Marvin said: "Look, listen, as we saw with Aston, you just don't know with the show - it's unpredictable. Y'know Aston should have won [his series] but it didn't quite go that way and that was through no fault of his own. He got sent home by one of the judges so sometimes it is out of your hands."

During the latest live show on Saturday night (November 9), JB and Lauren managed to finish joint topped the judges’ leader board for a second week in a row alongside Tasha Ghouri and Aljaz Skorjanec, with a samba that "stunned" the judges.

It's since been confirmed they'll be heading to Blackpool as Strictly relocates to the seaside town for its annual special, which will once again be broadcast life from the iconic Tower Ballroom, and that they'll perform a Quickstep to Never Gonna Give You Up by Rick Astley.

It comes after it was confirmed that JLS star JB's dance partner Amy Dowden wouldn't be able to continue competing in the BBC One dance contest.
