Paul and Karen take to the dancefloor for the last time

The other celebrities and pros run to embrace Paul and Karen, after they become the latest couple to be sent home from the competition.

The former footballer took the opportunity to make one last quip, as he said: ‘It’s been really good. For anybody I talk to, I would say you’ve got to go on this show. It’s amazing – everybody.

‘There’s a Tottenham fan over there called Lincoln and even he’s nice!

The remaining 11 couples will take to the dancefloor next week for the Halloween Special.

It's the end of the road for Paul and Karen!

It’s time to say goodbye to Paul and Karen, after the judges choose to save JB and Amy.

Karen gushes to her partner: ‘You’ve been a joy, I’ve never giggled so much – my abs are so tight now! You’re what Strictly is about’.

While Paul adds: ‘She’s been amazing, I couldn’t have asked for a better coach. I’ve won, because I couldn’t dance before and I can dance now!’

Do you agree with who was sent home?

The judges give their votes…

Craig is first and despite Paul joking that he’s been saved, he chooses JB.

Motsi says: ‘JB keeps to the music. Paul you had the party of the night, you made no mistakes but the music was out, so I’m saving JB’.

Anton says the decision should’ve been easier, saying ‘JB you made some mistakes. Paul if you’d been clean I would’ve saved you, but you weren’t clean, so I’ll save JB.’

Shirley admits she would’ve agreed but adds: ‘One couple made lots of mistakes, but it’s never over until it’s over.’

After being the last to be saved, Tasha admits: ‘I was very nervous and started going through the dance in my head. My lips were trembling.’

Speaking about Chris’ dance, Motsi explains: ‘For me most of the time it’s about what the contestants leave us feeling. Of course we have dance technical, but at the end of the day people fall in love with the emotions. I saw his face and saw everything he felt and it’s beautiful to see’.

18:35
