Kent singer HRVY is through to musicals week of Strictly Come Dancing after storming into history.

The YouTube star, from Hartley, and professional dance partner Janette Manrara were voted through by viewers after they scored three straight 10s last night topping the leader board.

Presenter Claudia Winkleman revealed it was the first time a couple had ever swept the board for 10s in week six of the show.

HRVY, real name Harvey Cantwell, is 21, and used to go to Dartford 's Leigh Academy.

This week the pair were given Couple's Choice, where dancers can opt for one of three styles – contemporary, street/commercial or theatre/jazz.

HRVY and Janette performed to Coldplay's Sky Full of Stars.

Judge Motsi Mabuse said: "What an unbelievable night to come back to. Unbelieveable. I felt that music through you. It was thumping in my heart. There's so many good things you did in there. We feel what you felt. It was priceless."

After their performance last night, HRVY was moved to tears as the show went live to his family at home in Hartley, with his mum Nicky telling him how proud they all were of him.

He said tonight of their score: "When we came off, I was speechless. It was a dream come true."

In tonight's Dance Debrief – where the judges revisit some of last night's moments – Craig Revel Horwood, who rarely gives out the top score, said he didn't know what had come over him to give out such a high mark in week six.

He said: "It was absolutely fantastic. I put my pen down and just watched it. It was effortless for him to do all of those isolations, to do all the pop, the lock, all the contemporary stuff, I believed the story. Everything came together. I just loved it."

Claudia later showed a clip of his family celebrating each of the scores as they were announced – giving loud cheers – and revealed dad Leigh "actually sobbed".
