Strictly Come Dancing fans are torn over the result of the latest dance off ahead of the final.

On Saturday night, four contestants and their partners danced in hope of making the final show, including Bobby Brazier and Dianne Buswell, Ellie Leach and Vito Coppola, Annabel Croft and Johannes Radebe and Layton Williams and Nikita Kuzmin.

But only three out of the four will be heading through to next week and will get a chance at taking home the famous Glitterball Trophy. Dave J Thorp, otherwise known as The Strictly Spoiler, has since revealed who has been sent home.

Daily Star has opted not to reveal the axed contestant, but viewers have been divided over the decision. And with just four left in the competition, one exit was always going to infuriate fans.

The spoiler stated that Motsi Mabuse, Anton Du Beke and Shirley Ballas were all in agreement over who to save – but Craig Revel Horwood had opted for a different contestant. Discovering the results, one user wrote: "That's a bit of a shock!", while another said they feel "sorry" for the axed contestant and admitted they were "annoyed" by the result.

A third person wrote: "All 4 were final worthy but this is the correct result when it comes down to it. Really excited to see the final 3 in the final now."

Meanwhile others were stating that although they were upset to see the celebrity go, it was "probably the right decision". The final star was sent packing after all four contestants easily made it through last week following Nigel Harman's exit.

It was confirmed ahead of Saturday night's show that Nigel had pulled out of Strictly after an injury. He had been due to dance a Charleston in the quarter final with Katya Jones.

Claudia Winkleman opened the show and issued a statement which said: "Unfortunately Nigel has sustained an injury… and has had to withdraw from the competition." Given how close it was to the final, that meant that instead of a usual dance off and departure, all contestants went through to the next week.

The scores from the previous week were set to be added to this week's scores to ensure they still counted. Now the final three will be dancing through to next week – but it'll only be one who manages to take home the Glitterball Trophy.
