Former England footballer Shaun Wright-Phillips and partner Alexis Warr were eliminated from Strictly Come Dancing following a dance-off against Jaime Winstone and Carlos Gu.
Shaun Wright-Phillips and Alexis Warr were eliminated from Strictly Come Dancing following the results show on Sunday. They lost the dance-off to actress Jaime Winstone and her partner Carlos Gu, who had themselves ended up in the bottom two despite scoring 25 points on Saturday's episode.
In the dance-off, Wright-Phillips and Warr performed their jive to Faith by Stevie Wonder featuring Ariana Grande, scoring 17 points. Winstone and Gu danced their foxtrot to Man I Need by Olivia Dean. Judges Craig Revel Horwood and Motsi Mabuse voted to save Winstone and Gu, as did Anton Du Beke, who had the casting vote. Head judge Shirley Ballas voted for Wright-Phillips and Warr.
The results show also announced a twist for next week's Halloween special: Strictly will hold its first triple dance-off. The three couples with the lowest combined judges' scores and public votes will dance again before judges eliminate one pair. The show will return to two-couple dance-offs for the remainder of the series.
