Yahoo News Strictly fans cross as Seann and Katya will dance again
Strictly Come Dancing got even dodgier as they welcomed the 'Strictly Dodgers' to the floor in a baseball-themed opening number led by Katya, possibly even playing up to her recent controversy with a kiss cam cameo.
Our Pros really hit a home run with this routine ⚾️💪 #Strictly pic.twitter.com/1uBDKYgcvK

Alfonso Ribeiro, best known for creating his own genre of dance - The Carlton, also returned as a guest judge filling in for Bruno. Many fans ignored the dancers and voted to keep him!
Alfonso and Craig are so funny! A double act #strictly

As the results commenced, the final downfall of Seann and Katya was hotly anticipated. Their Strictly scandal continued and they became the first pair revealed to be facing the dance-off.

It was then announced that Vick and Graziano would be joining Seann and Katya in the dance-off. After their performances, there were plenty of people who felt that there was no question that the sun had set on Seann's stint on Strictly.
Seann just basically requested to leave. The poor lad is so miserable. #Strictly

The judges clashed on the performances. Seann and Katya got through as Darcey, Alfonso and Shirley voted to save them, despite Craig's attempt to save Vick and Graziano. Of course, viewers were just as divided on the subject and voiced some serious anger.
Graziano's choreography really lets down Vick, she has so much potential #strictly

#strictly Ridiculous decision based on that performance. Sean was just hopeless and should have gone Shirley 😝😝

Wrong wrong wrong. Unfair decision. Seann to go. 😐 #Strictly
- Kris Saunders (@KrisSaunders24) October 21, 2018
What what what!?!
No!
How in the hell did Vick not get saved!?!
What were those 3 judges watching!?!
They’ve been told to keep Sean(n) for the ratings haven’t they!
Fix a fix! #SCD #Strictly #StrictlyComeDancing- 👻🖤Emma FitzBoo🖤👻 (@ElfieKawaii) October 21, 2018
Gutted @VickNHope is no longer in #Strictly ! She was one of my favourites this year. Such a charming, hard-working woman. At least she's out knowing she put her all into it. Will miss her in the coming weeks. 😢

WHAT. ABSOLUTE OUTRAGE on #StrictlyComeDancing Seann and Katya were technically WORSE and stumbled several times!!!!!!! Outrageous!!! #Strictly gotta get ur act together!!!! Despicable.
- Murto (@laurie_loo_) October 21, 2018
A couple of voices still remain in Seann's corner, though whether they will be enough to carry him through further shows seems doubtful against the apparent army of naysayers.
The right decision I think. Glad Katya isn’t out more than anything #Strictly
- Lyndyloo 🎃 (@LyndaMiddleton) October 21, 2018
I did think Sean(n) danced better in that #strictly

For those lucky enough to avoid the fight for a place, Halloween week awaits!
Danny surprised everyone by scoring the first 10 of the series and naturally sailed through to the next round with his partner Amy. They will be joined by Charles and Karen after similarly glowing reviews.
It's like getting a 🔟 all over again for @DannyJohnJules and @dowden_amy! They are safe 👏 #Strictly pic.twitter.com/ds20tJ0Wc6

New favourite on #strictly Danny John Jules and @dowden_amy jive was incredible. And agreed with @CraigRevHorwood re dance-off.
- Louise Lant (@louneil12) October 21, 2018
Danny. John. Jules. How did the world turn before he was dancing like this on our TVs every week? #strictly
- Cat ✨🎭 (@cat_hancock) October 21, 2018
Can we just have Charles and Danny in the dance off so we can see their amazing dances again? #strictly #jive #streetdance

Stacey and Kevin showed off an explosive celebration as they were sent through, cementing themselves as one of this year's favourite couples among fans.
Come on! @StaceyDooley and @keviclifton will dance again next week 🙌 #Strictly pic.twitter.com/2WsAb2rv6Q
- BBC Strictly✨ (@bbcstrictly) October 21, 2018
Well that's my 2 favourite couples through... go Danny & Amy and Stacey & Kevin ✌ #Strictly

Next week is sure to be spooky, Graeme Swann, in particular, will hope to have a showstopping performance, having bagged himself the official theme song of Halloween - Michael Jackson's Thriller.
So excited for #Strictly Halloween special next week! It’s my favourite television event of the year behind Eurovision! pic.twitter.com/h0sd10M6hY
