However, Bruno Tonioli decided to save Chris and Karen, leaving the deciding vote to head judge Shirley.
Some disgruntled fans were unimpressed with the results after the show was hit with a technical glitch on Saturday night having faced problems voting online.
It was addressed by Strictly host Claudia Winkleman at the start of Sunday’s show, where she said: “Apologies if you experienced any problem voting online on Saturday night.
“There was a technical problem but our independent verifier has confirmed we have a fair and valid result.”
Subsequently, Saturday’s voting was extended until 9pm, rather than the usual time of 8.40pm.
Strictly Come Dancing continues Saturday on BBC One at 7.10pm.
