Who Has Been Voted Off Strictly Come Dancing in Week 4 ?
Nick Knowles is the third celebrity to depart the dancefloor in Strictly Come Dancing 2024
Nick and Luba have left the Strictly Come Dancing competition following a dance off against Shayne and Nancy during the third Results Show of the series.
Both couples performed their routines again; Shayne and Nancy performed their Cha Cha to Ain’t No Love (Ain’t No Use) by Sub Sub feat. Melanie Williams. Then, Nick and Luba performed their Charleston to Rain on the Roof from the film Paddington 2.
After both couples had danced for a second time, the judges delivered their verdicts:
- Craig Revel Horwood chose to save Shayne and Nancy.
- Motsi Mabuse chose to save Shayne and Nancy.
- Anton Du Beke chose to save Shayne and Nancy.
With three votes in favour of Shayne and Nancy, they won the majority vote meaning that Nick and Luba would be leaving the competition. Head Judge Shirley Ballas also agreed and said she would have decided to save Shayne and Nancy.
When asked by Tess about their time on the show, Nick said: “I’ve really, really been surprised by how much I’ve loved doing it and by two things that happen. One is how much you care each week, and the other is how much you don’t want to let down your partner. The only reason I could do this is simply because of Luba’s changes, she’s been amazing.”
Luba said: “I’ve never met someone as determined as you, and I remember you saying that if you do your best, you’ll be very happy. I think you did more than your best. Thank you.”
When asked by Tess about his partner Luba, Nick said: “Luba’s been amazing and just been so fabulous every day. And I should say thank you also to all the background staff, the physios, all the people that have actually got me through this week, and to all of my fellow competitors who have been absolutely astounding, beautiful people. There are some amazing dancers up there, and I will love watching the rest of the series.”
Sunday’s Results Show also featured a special routine from our fabulous professional dancers to Taylor Swift’s Wildest Dreams, choreographed by Mandy Moore and starring Nikita Kuzmin and Karen Hauer as the leads. Plus a show stopping musical performance of Everything’s Here and Nothing’s Lost from Snow Patrol.
The remaining 12 couples will take to the dancefloor next week when Strictly Come Dancing returns on Saturday 19 October at 1825 with the results show on Sunday 20 October at 1920 on BBC One. Both of this weekend’s episodes are available to watch now via BBC iPlayer.
Nick and Luba will be joining Fleur East and Janette Manrara for their first exclusive televised interview live on Strictly: It Takes Two on Monday 14 October at 1830 on BBC Two and BBC iPlayer.
