It was a wild show on Saturday night’s Strictly Come Dancing – but things could be about to get even more dramatic.
Strictly Come Dancing was full of drama on Saturday night, with a Perfect 40 score (well done Amber Davies), a star in tears (poor Balvinder Sopal), a singing Paddington and even Neil Jones taking abuse from the stage despite being sat not-so-quietly in the audience.
Well, the drama is set to continue tomorrow night if the latest spoiler to leak out of the BBC hit is accurate. As has been the case for many years now, a well-known account has posted the couples it says enter the dance off and who it is that ultimately gets axed. As ever the information is unverified by the BBC but it has already got fans very hot and bothered.
One said simply: “My jaw just hit the floor.” Another branded the drama set to unfold on Sunday night “wild” while another insisted they were “absolutely gutted”. A third called the verdict: “A bit of a shocker.”
As ever here at the Mirror we don’t want to ruin the fun so we won’t reveal who it is goes until it’s announced on BBC One on Strictly Come Dancing: The Results with Claudia Winkleman and Tess Daly, which starts at 7.45pm.
As the show ended last night the field seemed wide open, with one fan writing: “I have absolutely NO IDEA who will be in that bottom two tonight. There are reasons why it could be any of them.”
Another added that they felt the leaderboard may have ended up delivering a close race intentionally: “Tonight I feel the judges were told to, bar any massive mistakes, score the couples the same so whoever is in the dance off, it’s the public’s ‘fault’,” they said.
The leaderboard at the end of Saturday’s show put Amber and Nikita top with 40, followed by George and Alexis with 35, Balvinder and Julian also with 35, Lewis and Katya with 35 and Karen and Carlos bottom on 34.
As many have pointed out, any couple could wind up in the dance off from that sort of scoring. With three couples ranking second, three couples have four points already so Amber being at the top of the leaderboard does not make her safe if she is at the bottom of the public vote.
It was a strong week for many couples with Amber – who “lives, sleeps and breathes musicals” – dominating Musicals Week with her top score. But it was also a good week for Balvinder, who picked up her biggest score yet.
With nines from everyone bar Craig Revel Horwood (grim-faced, he lifted the 8) it was clear how much it all meant to her. She broke down in tears mid-way through Motsi Mabuse‘s remarks about the Viennese Waltz she performed to Never Enough from the The Greatest Showman.
The EastEnders star, who has been working throughout the series, later told Claudia: “I have waited all competition for that feeling, and I’m so grateful. I’m actually really grateful for what I’ve heard tonight, and it’s just it’s blown my heart to love this and to do justice to that song.”
