The latest celebrity to be eliminated from Strictly Come Dancing has reportedly been revealed — and, if the widely circulated results-show spoiler is accurate, one contestant’s hopes of dancing under the dazzling lights of Blackpool’s Tower Ballroom have collapsed in dramatic fashion.

During last night’s (November 15) tense BBC broadcast, the remaining couples delivered some of their most ambitious routines yet as they battled for survival. With next week’s show taking place at the iconic Blackpool Tower Ballroom — a milestone many fans consider the "true heart" of the competition — the stakes were higher than ever. According to BBC News, the Blackpool episode is consistently one of the most-watched of the season, thanks to its large stage, historic setting, and expanded production values (BBC News).

But for one couple, that glittering dream is now over, following claims that the eliminated star suffered a fall during the dance-off — a moment that, according to viewers, changed everything.

Strictly Spoiler Results – Eliminated Star Named

Late last night, shortly before midnight, social media erupted as the leaked results began circulating online. Spoilers for Strictly have become part of the show’s culture, with the outcome traditionally filmed on Saturday but kept under wraps until Sunday. However, the secrecy rarely holds, as The Guardian has previously reported, noting that fan-run spoiler accounts are “remarkably consistent” each year (The Guardian).

While we won’t reveal the eliminated contestant here, early reactions suggest it may have been one of the most heartbreaking dance-offs of the entire series.

Sources claim that all four judges — Craig Revel Horwood, Motsi Mabuse, Shirley Ballas and Anton Du Beke — reached a unanimous decision to send the same celeb home. Unanimous eliminations are relatively rare on the show and typically signal a routine with a clear mistake or disadvantage, as Radio Times has pointed out when analysing past seasons (Radio Times).

What stunned fans most were reports on TikTok and X that the outgoing star fell during their dance-off performance, an error that almost certainly cost them their place in the competition.

Star ‘Falls’ During the Dance-Off

Fans reacting to the leaked spoilers expressed shock and sadness over the alleged stumble.

“Apparently the eliminated celeb fell. And that’s why the judges voted them off,” one viewer claimed online.

Another echoed: “Apparently they had a fall, sadly.”

A third asked: “What the heck? Something must’ve gone really wrong in the dance-off.”

Others shared their devastation, with one viewer writing: “Just hearing they had a fall in the dance-off and that’s why they left. Devastated if true.”

Falls during Strictly dance-offs are rare but not unheard of. Past contestants — including 2019’s Will Bayley, who withdrew due to an injury — have experienced the high physical stakes of performing under pressure. According to Metro UK, split-second slips can drastically shift voting outcomes, especially this close to Blackpool (Metro UK).

Fan Reactions – ‘Actually Gutted’

Regardless of the reported misstep, fans of the eliminated star have expressed deep disappointment across social media.

“Actually gutted,” one remarked.

“So sad for them. At this stage I feel gutted when anyone goes home,” another viewer added.

A third insisted: “I think the wrong person was eliminated.”

Someone else went further: “One of the first times this series the wrong person has gone home, in my opinion.”

As the competition moves into its Blackpool week — a landmark moment that often boosts a dancer’s confidence and visibility — the departure feels especially painful for fans of the star who missed their chance.

With only a handful of couples remaining, the battle for the glitterball trophy is intensifying. And if this week’s spoiler is any indication, the road to the final may be more dramatic than ever.
