Strictly Come Dancing has said goodbye to its third couple of the 2025 series – and the result has left viewers shocked to their core.
Last weekend saw Ross King leave the competition. His exit came a week after Thomas Skinner’s Strictly journey came to an end.
Now Strictly fans have been forced to say goodbye to another pair… And it’s a result which has raised many an eyebrow with viewers at home.
Strictly results – Chris and Nadiya exit the competition
Last night on Strictly Come Dancing, La Voix and Aljaz Skorjanec were placed at the very bottom of the leaderboard. The blow came after their cha cha cha failed to impress the judges, who handed them just 12 points.
Chris Robshaw and Nadiya Bychokova were above them with 24 points. Meanwhile, Harry and Karen and Stefan and Dianne both finished up with 26 points.
But only one of the bottom four couples were in the dance-off, with Balvinder Sopal and partner Julian Caillon joining Chris and Nadiya in the fight for survival.
Ultimately, after both performed their routines again, it was rugby ace Chris Robshaw who was sent for an early bath, exiting the series in 13th place.
Shirley Ballas and Anton Du Beke saved Chris and Nadiya. Craig Revel Horwood and Motsi Mabuse saved Balvinder and Julian. However, as Craig was the judge who held the deciding vote tonight, Balvinder was saved.
Viewers react
However, viewers really didn’t think Chris deserved to go, commenting that La Voix’s dance was by far the worst of the night. Others were upset that EastEnders star Balvinder found herself in the bottom two for the second week running.
One said: “I don’t understand why Balvinder isn’t getting the support. She is incredible and her Paso was brilliant.” A second commented: “Bal was SENSATIONAL tonight. how the fudge is she in the bottom two, AGAIN?! especially over La Voix who was scored a 2! Absolutely ridiculous. I’m so glad Bal is through but she shouldn’t have been in the dance-off.”
A third commented: “I can’t believe Balvinder was in the dance off again, why? I voted for her, but she clearly doesn’t have the public support, which is a great shame.”
“Noo! Chris wasn’t great, but La Voix was dreadful!” said another.
“Who on earth voted La Voix this week? Thoroughly deserved to be bottom and should have been bottom two and eliminated as both couples in dance off danced better this week,” another declared.
“Love La Voix but I was convinced she would be in the bottom two tonight. And it was warranted sadly. It was a car crash. I’m not sure people aren’t seeing in Balvinder – I think she’s what Strictly is about and seems lovely,” another said sadly.
