Gemma Atkinson sends words of support to BBC Strictly's Molly Rainford as fans hit back at Craig's scores

Gemma Atkinson has sent some encouraging words of support to Strictly Come Dancing star Molly Rainford after she got emotional following her latest routine. The singer and Britain's Got Talent child star was back in the ballroom on Saturday night (October 29) after surviving the dread dance-off last weekend.

Last week, Jayde Adams became the fourth contestant to leave the competition losing out to Molly after they landed in the bottom two with their professional partners Carlos Gu and Karen Hauer. But Molly, 21, split the judges’ opinions with her Argentine tango to Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God) by Kate Bush.

Following their performance, head judge Shirley Ballas said: "I am all hot underneath my collar, there was drama, passion and everything in between. You came back and were determined, foot by foot a really strong performance. I loved it."
