It was a night of firsts on Strictly this evening, with Love Island’s Tasha Ghouri securing the first perfect score of the series so far, closely followed by a new “samba-thon” knockout competition.
After a high-scoring Blackpool special last week, the 10 paddles made several appearances this evening, with JLS’s JB Gill and new partner Lauren Oakley also receiving an impressive 39/40 for their Charleston.

However the singer’s almost-perfect score wasn’t a complete hit with the audience at home.
In fact, several eagle-eyed viewers took to social media convinced they’d spotted a glaring mistake in the dance that the judges had missed.
Strictly viewers baffled by JB lift
As JB and Lauren celebrated their achivement, one person took to Twitter to say: “I’m sure JB almost dropped Lauren at one point, because I reacted when I saw it, so now I’m confused.”
