RECAP Strictly Come Dancing results show as Sam Quek becomes the latest star to be eliminated

In her farewell speech, Sam said she was gutted.

I’m gutted. I just want to say thank you. I’ve learned so much. Strictly has brought that spring in my step back. It’s 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. I’m guilty of watching the competition and thinking ‘How do they have that relationship as a celebrity and a dancer?’

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.”

Despite flattery from the judges towards both couples, only one could go through and Craig started off the decision makeing.

He chose Montell Douglas and Johannes Radeb after explaining they had shown more ability when it mattered most.

Motsi agreed with Craig and agreed both danced beautifull but in the end she threw her weight behind Montell.

Anton said both had the ability to reach the final but in the end chose Montell and Shirley agreed.

Last time, the pair scored an amazing 35 points, six more than Sam, so they will be hoping it’s enough to get them through to next week.

Last time the two got 29 points from the judges but will be hoping for better feedback this time as they take to the floor in full romantic Romeo and Juliet costumes inspired by Taylor Swift herself.

The boyband are the product of the BBC series Made in Korea.

The six-part series, now available on BBC iPlayer, folllowed the fortunes of pop star wannabes Blaise Noon, Dexter Greenwood, James Sharp, Olly Quinn and Reese Carter as they make a bid for stardom.

The duo will be perfomring the sensual and sexy Argentine Tango, a dance Jamie said he’s been waiting to show off since he started in the competition.

Montell Douglas and Johannes Radebe are in the dance-off and visibly disappointed and worried.

Montrell said she was going to give it her all before Motsi gave her some advice.

She said: ‘You know how this works, pess the button and repeat what you did.’

The judge added she believed in her before she took ot the dance floor.

The next few couples saved, dancing again next week are:

• Chris McCausland and Dianne Buswell
• Sarah Hadland and Vito Coppola
• Wynne Evans and Katya Jones

Craig: ‘I think she’s a brilliant dancer she just needs ot loosen up a little bit.’

He told her to up her game and added he ‘didn’t care’ she had never danced before – she needed to improve.

And Craig’s answer shocked Claudia who gasped before calling his fierce opinions ‘erotic’.

Motsi complimented Tasha’s dance, praising her moving, her light step and ‘transporting emotions through dance’.

The judges then sparred over Montell and Jojo’s dance before agreeing to disagree.

The TOWIE star revealed that an otter sanctuary has named two otters after him and his partner and earlier this week sent him a good luck message which the star clearly didn’t need!

After Tasha confessed she was most worried about the quick step, Aljaž then told Claudia that that was indeed what they would be performing next week.

He teased: ‘There will be lots of steps, but I promise to make it quick’ before the pair laughed.

Pete and Jowita have managed to make it through to next week’s after scoring 22 points and finding themselves at the bottom of the leaderboard.

Despite being saved by the public, he said he didn’t feel he deserved to be there before Claudia complimted him

After finishing Saturday’s show with a score of 29, Sam Quek and Nikita Kuzmin have found themselves int he dance off.

But despite the news, Sam remained poitive.

She said: ‘It’s been about fighting, I enjoyed it the first time so hopefully we’ll enjoy it the second time.’

Before they take to the floor, Anton told Sam to focus on being flexible but complimented her lifts and her lines

And she replied: ‘What will be will be’

Safe from elimination this week is JB and Lauren and it wasn’t just the duo who were proud of their effort in Saturday’s show.

Strictly’s Amy Dowden broke down in tears as she watched the pair get a near perfect score.

The Welsh dancer, 34, was forced to pull out of this weekend’s show after collapsing backstage last week, with fellow professional Lauren being drafted in as her replacement.

And as Amy watched JLS star JB and Lauren receive an incredible 39 points out of 40, she started to tear up, with some viewers saying while she looked happy, it would have been hard not to have scored that with JB herself.

The judges are reflecting on Saturday’s iconic performances, and the stars are waiting nervously to hear whether they will be the ones facing the dance-off this week

Host Tess Daley has arrived to read out the results. It’s all to play for – but who do you think will be in the bottom two?
