Strictly Come Dancing fans think they have figured out why Tony Adams landed in his first dance-off before having to make the shock decision to withdraw from the competition. The former footballer made it to week eight in the BBC One dance contest alongside professional partner Katya Jones before facing the bottom two for the first time.
But rather than fight for his survival in the hit dance competition in a bid to secure a place in week nine which will see the cast and crew head to Blackpool for the first time in three years, Tony was forced to withdraw from Strictly with an injury. This meant that opponents Tyler West and Dianne Buswell were automatically saved from the dance-off.
Tony, 56, and Katya ended up in the dreaded dance-off after failing to impress the judges with a jive to Land Of 1,000 Dances by Wilson Pickett, earning just 24 and bottom place on the leaderboard. And it is thought it is during his Saturday night routine he hurt himself leading to him being unable to dance again.
