Fans of Strictly Come Dancing were left furious after a popular couple was seemingly 'snubbed' by the judges. Despite delivering impressive dance performances, two stars failed to receive a perfect score of 40, causing frustration among viewers.
Undermarked Again?
Ellie Leach, 22, and professional dancer Vito Coppola, 31, found themselves 'undermarked' once again, according to some Strictly fans. Despite receiving positive feedback from all three judges, the couple did not receive the perfect score they believed they deserved.
Outraged Fans React
Viewers took to Twitter to express their frustration. One fan wrote, "So all three judges haven't got anything bad to say but give Ellie and Vito a 9!? When are they going to have the 40 that they deserve?" Another added, "Sick of Ellie and Vito not getting the 40!"
Many fans praised Ellie's dance abilities, with one penning, "Jeezus Ellie! That was UNBELIEVABLE! She is amazing! Is there no dance she can't do! Perfection!" And another wrote, "I've lost count of how many performances from Ellie and Vito should have been perfect 40… I mean what more do they want?"
Quickstep to Belle
Ellie and Vito performed a Quickstep to the iconic song "Belle" from Disney's Beauty and the Beast. Despite their electrifying routine, each judge scored the couple a nine, resulting in a total of 36 points.
Unexpected Change
In a surprising turn of events, the usual Sunday elimination episode of Strictly Come Dancing has been canceled. This decision came after Nigel Harman, a former EastEnders actor and competitor on the show, had to withdraw from the competition due to a rib injury sustained during rehearsals.
