Strictly Spoiler leaked and viewers ask 'how' star 'keeps surviving'

The BBC Strictly Come Dancing spoiler has leaked for Blackpool - showing the latest contestant to be eliminated from the show as the programme reached the North West of England for its latest special. The BBC show aired on Saturday (November 16) night, with the results pre-recorded and set to air on Sunday.

The spoiler account started leaking updates from the results recording shortly after 10pm. In reply to the result, which BirminghamLive has chosen NOT to publish, one Twitter/X user and Strictly Come Dancing fan wrote: "No surprise. Both were lacklustre."

A second said: "Lot of overmarking in my opinion tonight. Shirley don't mark to what she says as does. Anton at time. Motsi can be up and down. At least Craig keeps it to his say. Let's be fair... think he's better placed than shirley to judge. Choreography to loads of shows what does shirley do."

"Finally, not before time," another said. Another said: "F*** YES." Another typed: "Thank god." And another said: "About time." But another asked: "How do they keep surviving?," in response to one contestant, after noticing another was safe.

Another said: "Yes, ok but again this person is not quite the weakest dancer - but then we all know why that person is not in the bottom two (yet..)" The BBC One show was broadcast from the Blackpool Tower Ballroom on Saturday, celebrating its 20th year by opening with the professional dancers dancing to the Pet Shop Boys performing a medley of their hits, including It’s A Sin, Suburbia and What Have I Done To Deserve This.

Actress Sarah Hadland and Love Island star Tasha Ghouri have jointly topped the Strictly Come Dancing leaderboard in Blackpool. The judges gave both Ghouri and Hadland, who stars in BBC comedy Miranda, a near-perfect score of 39 points.
