Another added: “She’s in the first seat slot and middle on the leaderboard so everyone please vote Rose.”

Meanwhile, during last night’s show, the judges gave their feedback to Rose and Giovanni.

Shirley Ballas said: “You had some beautiful elevation in this dance, some great shaping. My next suggestion for you is just a little bit more breath through the body.

“You are bringing it week in and week out. Tiny little stumble at the end, otherwise well done.”

What did the judges say?

Anton continued: “Once again, you drew all the attention to you and it wasn’t lost and your work is so clean.

“Generally speaking, I just love watching you dance well done.”

However, Craig said: “I thought it was a little upright and stiff. For me there was too much foward and back, forward and back. I didn’t feel you powered around the floor.”

However, Craig praised the performance of their characters as “fantastic”.

Elsewhere, Cynthia said: “I think you are fierce, it was really wonderful.

“You have this power in you that moves across the floor. So well done.”

The Strictly Come Dancing results show airs on BBC One, tonight, at 7:20pm.
