Strictly Come Dancing hosted its Halloween spooktacular last night (November 1) – but tonight in the BBC ballroom it was a Halloween horror for one couple, as they became the latest pair to exit the competition as the results came in.
Tonight on Strictly, Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman revealed that Ellie Goldstein and Vito Coppola and Balvinder Sopal and Julian Caillon would battle it out in the dance-off.
And, after both performed their routines again – Ellie a Tango and Balvinder a Rumba – it was down to the judges to decide which couple would live to dance another day…

Strictly results – Ellie and Vito sent packing
Sadly for Ellie Goldstein and Vito Coppola, the judges decided unanimously to save Balvinder and Julian. Her exit came after a week of speculation surrounding her future in the show after rumours that she’d quit.
Before they took to the floor for their last dance, Vito told Ellie: “Honestly, there are no words I can use to describe how proud I am of you and you did really change my life so much. You made me such a better person.
“At the beginning of this year, I said to myself please, please, please can you send me a beautiful angel into my life? And now you arrived. I’ve never had a little sister but I always wanted one. Now, I have you and you’re my little sister forever, and your big brother is always by your side.”
When asked about how much she enjoyed dancing with Vito, Ellie then said: “I’ve enjoyed it so much! He is a kind person and all I wanted from day one. You have been so heartwarming, thank you to you.”
