Strictly's Quarter-Final Nerves: One Couple Faces Elimination
29 Nov
Summary
- Six couples vie for a spot in the quarter-final.
- A new Instant Dance Challenge adds extra points.
- One couple will be eliminated before Musicals Week.
The competition on Strictly Come Dancing is heating up as it reaches week ten, with only six couples remaining. These duos are returning to the familiar Elstree Studios ballroom to compete for a place in the quarter-finals. This pivotal week introduces a brand-new challenge: Strictly's first Instant Dance Challenge, which will award extra points and could significantly impact the leaderboard.
Last weekend's visit to the Tower Ballroom saw La Voix withdraw due to injury, meaning no elimination occurred. This led to a night of high scores, with Lewis Cope achieving a perfect 40, and Karen Carney and George Clarke scoring 39 points each. Now, the combined scores from last week and tonight's performances, including the Instant Dance, will determine the bottom two.
These bottom two couples will face a dance-off on Sunday night, with one pair being eliminated and missing out on the highly anticipated Musicals Week. Bookmakers are favoring Balvinder Sopal for elimination, with Alex Kingston also considered at risk. The live show airs this Saturday evening.
