Strictly Come Dancing result sees Ellie Simmonds go home as fans hit out at 'unfair' outcome

Strictly Come Dancing fans have once again been left angry by the show's result as two couples who scored highly on Saturday night ended up in the dance-off, with Ellie Simmonds and Nikita Kuzmin eventually voted out.

Just like series in years gone by, this year's Strictly has thrown up a few surprising results, most notably Fleur East falling into the bottom two twice and early frontrunner Molly Rainford also having to battle to keep her place in the competition.

On Saturday night, after two consecutive theme weeks, some normality was restored in the BBC ballroom, as the 10 remaining couples officially made it half way through the series. Echoing the trend from previous weeks, things were rather tight on the leaderboard, with Hamza Yassin topping the standings by just a point, on 38 out of 40. Kym Marsh and Helen Skelton both got personal bests of 37, while Mollie and Fleur both got 35.
