Sam Quek and Nikita Kuzmin were the latest couple to leave Strictly Come Dancing following a shock dance off against Montell Douglas and Johannes Radebe.
The sixth results show of the series closed out ICONS week with an electrifying K-Pop performance as well as a Beyoncé group dance.
In a shock turn of events, the celebrities in the bottom two with their partners were hockey star Sam and Gladiator Montell.
Both couples performed their routines again during Sunday’s results show and all four judges unanimously saved Montell and Johannes – with Sam and Nikita sent home.
During Saturday’s live show, Montell was placed fourth on the leaderboard as she scored 35 points for her Waltz while Sam’s American Smooth saw her end up joint second last.

On Sunday, Sam and Nikita performed their American Smooth to Love Story by Taylor Swift again, while Montell and Johannes performed their Waltz to I Will Always Love You by Whitney Houston.
With three votes in favour of Montell and Johannes, they won the majority vote meaning that Sam and Nikita would be leaving the competition.
Head Judge Shirley Ballas also agreed and said she would have decided to save Montell and Johannes.
When asked by Tess about her time on the show, Sam said: ‘I’m gutted, I just want to say thank you.
‘I’ve learned so much. Strictly has just brought that spring in my step back. It’s just been an absolute joy.
‘Nikita, you’ve been key in helping me find that inner Sam that was there, who went a little bit quiet for maybe one or two years and has just come back. I’m gutted because I do feel like I still have more to give.’
Nikita said: ‘I’m just in awe of this girl. Sometimes they say it’s about the journey, not the destination, but to me it’s about the company.
‘Sam you are the most wonderful company I could have had.’

‘I’m guilty of watching the competition and thinking “How do they have that relationship as a celebrity and a dancer?” Sam added.
‘All I can say is, the time you spend with each other and what you bring out in each other. It really is, and it sounds dead cheesy, magical.’
Viewers were treated to a performance from K-Pop’s newest boyband dearALICE, as well as a dazzling Beyoncé medley.
The group dance saw Johannes channel his inner Sasha Fierce as the protagonist in the routine – which was filled with bejewelled cowboy hats, power ballad moves and sparkling sass.
Strictly fans were left in shock after the results were again leaked online in a huge spoiler.
Many were surprised at who ended up in the bottom two and had to dance their routines for a second time.

While others expressed their annoyance at the leak which has been common most Sundays during recent series due to a notorious mole.
They penned on X (Twitter): ‘actually so annoyed at this??? neither of the couples in the dance off deserved to be there when they’ve improved week after week and then there’s others that have had several bad weeks and keep sailing through.’,
‘WHAT?! I’M FLOORED!! This has fully p***ed me off actually.’,
‘I’m sorry what!! My first question is why was either couple in the dance off??!! And 2nd why are the worse ones still in?’,
‘what the hell did i just saw ??? the two couples in the dance off was not supposed to be in the dance off to begin with.’
