Strictly fans score Hamza higher than Will after last week's performances - do you agree?

After the excitement of Blackpool, the remaining contestants returned to the Strictly ballroom as they danced for their place in the glitzy competition - but which routine was your favourite?

Comedian Ellie Taylor and her pro partner Johannes Radabe became the ninth couple to exit the BBC show on Sunday night, after landing in the dreaded dance-off against Fleur East and Vito Coppola.

The losing pair performed a Jive to Brown Eyed Girl by Van Morrison, while Fleur and Vito danced the Rumba to Too Lost in You by the Sugababes in a bid to stay another week.

After their routines, it was down to the four judges - Shirley Ballas, Craig Revel Horwood, Motsi Mabuse and Anton du Beke - to give their verdicts and decide who made it through to the next round.

Fans appeared to agree with this decision, as the dancing duo finished the weekend at the bottom of our leader board, securing a disappointing score of 6.07.

Every week we’re giving readers the chance to score the dancers and let us know whether they thought Craig was bang out of order, or if it really was too early for that 10 from Shirley.

Following Saturday night’s display, viewers placed Hamza Yassin and Jowita Przystal at the top of the leader board with an impressive score of 8.7.

The Countryfile presenter was also a hit with the judges when he performed a steamy Argentine Tango, scoring two tens.

Meanwhile, Will Mellor and Nancy Xu finished in second place with a score of 8.51 from the public, despite the judges placing the pair at the top of the scoreboard on Saturday night.

In third place sits Helen Skelton and Gorka Marquez after their Samba to Eso Beso by Emma Bunton.

The public were more generous with their marking than the judges, who awarded the duo a combined total of just 29 - their lowest score since their Paso Doble in Week Four.

Despite landing in the dance-off, readers placed Fluer in the middle of the leader board with a 7.33 for their performance, followed closely by Molly Rainford and Carlos Gu.

The CBBC star failed to impress the public with her Tango to Billie Eilish’s Bad Guy, scooping a mediocre 7.22.
