STRICTLY fans are outraged by tonight’s elimination after the result leaked hours ahead of the pre-recorded show.
The stakes were at an all-time high last night as the five remaining couples battled it out for a place in next week’s final.

But sadly one pairing has had to go, and it certainly hasn’t pleased people.
After learning the result, one raged: “Maybe Strictly should finish for good obviously a very biased programme.”
Another wrote: “Woahhhhh what a curveball?!”
As a third posted: “I am fuming please tell me this is wrong.”
However, not everyone was shocked, with others calling it the right decision.
Last night Maisie Smith tucked into a well-earned pizza after topping the leaderboard.
The 19-year-old and her professional partner Gorka Marquez wowed the judges with their two performances, including a show-stopping couple’s choice.
The EastEnders actress ended the episode just one point away from full marks with 59 out of 60, with HRVY tailing behind in second place.
And to mark the occasion, Maisie ordered a celebratory pizza as she admitted that she was “starving” as the show ended.
The teen and Gorka thanked fans for their support on his Instagram Story – but Gorka was thrown when the flame-haired beauty kickstarted the video by chomping on the snack.
He exclaimed: “You’re already on the pizza!”
Maisie simply replied: “Starving.”
She added: “What just happened?”
Gorka continued: “That was incredible, I don’t know, I don’t have words – I’m speechless.
“Guys, I hope you enjoyed the show and the dancing as much as we did.”
Turning to Maisie he continued: “I am so proud of you.”
Maisie smiled as she thanked him, urging fans to vote for them as she added: “We love you and appreciate your support so much and we want to be in the final so bad!”
Still dressed in her elegant ballgown and wearing full glam make-up, Maisie then posted a snap of herself looking ecstatic as she held a slice of pizza up in the air.
Strictly has been a rocky road for the star, who has been saved by the judges three times after landing in the bottom two.
Fans will find out tonight whether or not Maisie and Gorka have made it through to next week’s final, with Bill Bailey, HRVY, Ranvir Singh, and Jamie Laing also fighting for a place.
