Shock elimination on Strictly Come Dancing

The remaining 10 couples took to the dancefloor to impress the judges.

Topping the judges leaderboard with a score of 38/40 for their Cha Cha Cha was TV wildlife presenter Hamza Yassin and his dance partner Jowita Przystal. Actress & TV presenter Kym Marsh and her dance partner Graziano Di Prima and TV presenter Helen Skelton and her dance partner Gorka Marquez both picked up their highest scores of the series with both scoring 37/40.

For the second time this series CBBC star Molly Rainford and her dance partner Carlos Gu found themselves in the dance off along with Paralympic swimmer Ellie Simmonds and her dance partner Nikita Kuzman.

Judges unaminously voted to save Molly meaning Ellie Simmonds time on Strictly Come Dancing is over in a shock elimination.

Strictly Come Dancing returns this weekend where 9 couples remain.
