Vicky Pattison Eliminated From Strictly After Unanimous Dance-Off Decision

Judges unanimously saved Balvinder Sopal and Julian Caillon after Vicky Pattison fell from a 39-point tango to a 27-point jive.

Overview

  • Pattison and partner Kai Widdrington became the seventh couple eliminated after losing the dance-off to Sopal and Julian Caillon.
  • In the reprise, Sopal performed an American smooth to My Guy, while Pattison danced a jive to Sound of the Underground before all four judges backed Sopal.
  • The exit follows a dramatic swing in scores, with Pattison dropping from a near-perfect 39 last week to 27 for the jive.
  • Their departure rules the pair out of next weekend’s Blackpool Tower Ballroom special as the remaining seven couples continue.
  • Widdrington posted a tribute on Instagram praising Pattison’s progress, as fans voiced disappointment and former pro Ola Jordan argued the jive draw and song made the week especially difficult.
