Strictly 2026 removes its fourth celebrity from the competition as another couple is voted off following a dance-off. Multiple outlets report that the decision happens during results coverage, with the show also teasing what viewers can expect next week.
The Evening Standard says Sunday’s results episode includes a “Halloween twist” and reveals details of a surprise next week’s dance-off. The Independent similarly focuses on identifying the person who leaves the programme. The Belfast Telegraph likewise reports the fourth couple being eliminated after a dance-off.
While all outlets agree on the broad outcome—an additional elimination in the series—coverage differs in emphasis. Some lead with the specific elimination wording (“celebrity” versus “couple”), and at least one outlet highlights the Halloween-themed framing and the prospect of an upcoming twist.
