Strictly Come Dancing spoiler leaks 'unfair' result as fans hit out at judges' scores

Strictly Come Dancing fans have hit out at this week’s spoiler, as a high scoring couple found themselves in danger, with the outcome leaving fans 'gutted.'

Saturday’s Strictly was a bit of an odd one to digest for fans of the BBC show, as judge Craig Revel-Horwood dished out 5s, even though we’re just a week away from the quarter final.

Consistent high scorers Hamza and Jowita had reason to celebrate once again. but there were worrying scores for both Ellie Taylor and Helen Skelton. who received just 5 from Craig.

It took just a few hours after credits rolled for this week’s spoiler to leak and, when it did. the identity of the bottom two couples did not go down well online, as fans hit out at their fellow voters for allowing it to happen.

Notoriously hard to impress judge Craig could have played a big hand in how things played our this weekend, as he gave both Ellie Taylor and Helen Skelton a 5, the latter going down like a lead balloon with the studio audience.

At the end of the night, there was a new couple at the top of the leaderboard, in the shape of Will and Nancy, who got a near perfect score of 39 out of 40, while Ellie and Johannes were left hoping the public would back them again after finishing on just 25, while Molly Rainford was keeping everything crossed that her 35 out of 40 would be enough to keep her from being in the dance-off for a fourth time this series.

Hours after the live show finished the spolier leaked online and received a mixed reaction to say the least.

On seeing one of the couples in danger, one irate fan tweeted: “ I don’t understand why that person was in the dance off this week, it was a brilliant dance. Definitely not deserved,” and a second reacted: “absolutely gutted as they were my favourites”

To see all the results drama unfold in full, watch the Strictly results show on BBC One on Sunday night.
