Delta Goodrem and Kai Widdrington enjoyed another successful night, scoring 33 points for their salsa.

Tabby Stoecker and Mark Karmalita, alongside Cach Mercer and Maddie Ingoldsby, were close behind with 31 points each.

While Delta will be delighted with her performance, tonight’s results will show whether the leaderboard favourites have also won over the public.

Is this Melanie’s last dance on Strictly?

Dame Sarah Storey and Julian Caillon also finished towards the lower end of the rankings with 20 points.

These results could leave the couples vulnerable, but the final positions depend on the combined judges’ scores and public votes. The two couples who finish in the bottom positions must perform again in the dance-off.

Why is Shaun Wright-Phillips favourite to leave Strictly tonight?

Shaun Wright-Phillips is facing a difficult week after receiving just 15 points for his quickstep with Alexis Warr.

The former England international has found himself at the bottom of the leaderboard, putting him under pressure ahead of the results show.

However, Strictly Come Dancing has repeatedly demonstrated that a low score does not guarantee elimination. The public vote can help struggling couples avoid the dance-off, while the judges have the final say when the bottom two perform again.

Shaun will be hoping viewers have seen enough potential in his performances to give him another chance in the competition.
