STRICTLY Come Dancing’s results have been leaked once more – just hours after the filming of the show concluded.

As is customary, Saturday night’s live show is broadcast live, while the Sunday night results show is pre-recorded immediately after and presented as live.

Due to this recurring issue, leaks have become commonplace, spreading across social media and spoiling the experience for viewers who prefer to watch the show without prior knowledge.

The contestants in the bottom two, who will participate in the dance-off, have been disclosed along with the judges’ voting results.

The Sun has chosen not to disclose the name of the celebrity eliminated from the competition to maintain the element of surprise for the audience.

This comes in the wake of a chaotic new live Instant Dance challenge that captivated viewers.

As the show neared its conclusion, after each couple showcased their choreographed dance, they returned to the dancefloor to discover the dance style and music for the Instant Dance challenge.

The surprise dance tested their skills, as it was one they had learned during the competition and was revealed in an envelope they had selected the previous week but had not opened until the live show.

They were given 15 seconds to select a costume, quickly change backstage, and then had just ten seconds to decide how they would perform the dance.

The chaos included a contestant rushing off stage to retrieve part of her outfit, and the judges accidentally switching seats and cushions, resulting in Motsi sinking down much lower than expected.

The hilarity continued as the judges had to give their scores for the instant dances, with Lewis Cope once again taking the top spot.

The former star and his partner Katya Jones performed a rumba to Harry Styles‘ "Falling," earning 36 points from the judges, before later topping the scores for the Instant Dance.

Head Judge Shirley Ballas remarked: “I love the chemistry, I love the narrative, and I love the way you conveyed the entire story. For me, this is one of the very, very good rumbas. Well done.”

Another judge added: “The hips seemed to lack a bit of fluidity and resistance, and hold through the four one; that’s what I felt was slightly missing from this dance.

“However, the composition of that dance was fantastic. It was artistic, full of flair, my darling, and brimming with emotion. I loved it.”

On the opposite end of the leaderboard, Alex Kingston finished last after making several mistakes during her performance.
