Fans of BBC’s Strictly Come Dancing have been left ‘destroyed’ after the results for Icon Week were leaked online ahead of Sunday’s (November 3) results show.
Newsquest will not reveal the details of which two celebrities found themselves in the bottom two since these results have not been verified (and to not spoil tonight's programme).
Marking the first-ever Icons week, each celebrity danced to a song from an ‘icon’ including Taylor Swift’s Love Story (Taylor’s Version), Help! by The Beatles, Madonna’s Like a Pray and Faith by Georg Michael.
This week there was a draw for top place with both JB and Tasha scoring 39 for their dances.
Tasha and Aljaž danced the couple's choice to What About Us by P!nk and earned them three 10 and one nine for Craig Revel Horwood.
JB, who was partnered with Lauren Oakley after Amy Dowden was forced to miss a week as she recovered from a medical incident.
Together, dancing to a Bruno Mars Medley with their couple's choice, the pair also got 39 with three 10 and one nine also from Horwood.
Strictly Come Dancing fans ‘devasted’ as Icons Week elimination leaked
The results show for Strictly was filmed on the same night as the live show but was aired on BBC One the following night.
However, that means that everyone in the crowd knows which celebrity is eliminated the day before the rest of the UK, which can mean spoiler leaks.
This week also saw a spoiler leak with the name of the celebrity leaving the show leaked online and leaving many Strictly fans devastated by the exit.
Sharing on social media, one fan said: “Actually so annoyed at this??? neither of the couples in the dance-off deserved to be there.”
Another added: “WOW! This one has made me really sad” while another fan shared a similar surprise: “Wow I didn’t see this one coming at all.”

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
