Tonight's Strictly Come Dancing final was in full swing when head judge Shirley Ballas claimed she 'didn't have a paddle high enough' to score singer Fleur East for her judge's choice dance, the samba. Fleur and partner Vito Coppola scored a full 40 points for the energetic dance that judge Ballas had viewed in training earlier this week.
The head judge gave high praise to the couple: "I really do not have a paddle high enough for that samba you just produced, it was really world finals material. I've got professional couples who don't do a walk like that. You sold it with your soul."
Craig said: "I'm furious because I couldn't find anything wrong with it," going on to give them his first final 10. "You became a stronger Fleur, a stronger woman. You smashed that samba. I always had Danny Mac in mind with the samba, but you're the queen!"
