Dame Sarah Storey and her partner Julian Caillon are eliminated from Strictly Come Dancing 2026 after landing in the bottom of the judges’ standings and losing their dance-off. Reports agree that their Tango does not score well enough with the judges, who then decide which couple is saved.
In the dance-off, all judges choose to save Bethany Antonia and her partner Nancy Xu, who move on to the next episode. One outlet adds that Storey and Caillon acknowledge they expected to be going home following the result. The coverage focuses on the couples involved in the singling out of the saved pair, with the main difference between reports being the emphasis placed on Storey and Caillon’s reaction to the elimination.
