Ellie Simmonds has said she suffered a real 'low' on Strictly Come Dancing, after looking close to tears during this weekend's results show and thinking she was going to be in the dance-off. And fans are pointing the finger at blame at show bosses for her latest song choice.
Paralympic swimming champion Ellie has been a joy to watch on the BBC show so far, thanks to her amazing partnership with pro dancer Nikita Kuzmin. Going into Halloween Week, the duo's scores had been good, as had their feedback from the Strictly judges. However, things took a downturn after they performed a Foxtrot to the Scooby Doo theme tune.
Notoriously hard to please expert Craig Revel-Horwood said it was "too stompy," with two much walking between steps instead of dancing. The judges' rather lukewarm comments were reflected in their scores, with Ellie and Nikita second bottom of the leaderboard, just ahead of James Bye, who became the fifth star to be sent packing from the ballroom, after losing the latest dance-off to Fleur East.
