Strictly Come Dancing spoilers follow.
Strictly Come Dancing fans praised Tasha Ghouri after she completed a routine in which her cochlear implant came loose.
The Love Island star took to the dancefloor with professional partner Aljaž Škorjanec on Saturday (November 30) as the remaining six couples participated in the quarter-final, with the couple performing the Argentine Tango to ‘Ex-Wives’ from Six.
The routine earned wide acclaim from the judges as they scored 38 points, with the feat made more impressive after Tasha indicated to her partner that she had lost her hearing after her cochlear implant had fallen out.

Tasha confirmed the incident in her post-dance chat with host Tess Daly, with fans taking to X/Twitter to commend the celebrity for her ability to continue dancing to a high standard without the aid of an implant.
"I say this with love but it was quite obvious Tasha Ghouri was going to kill that Argentine Tango. As ever she delivered, like she always does, all that with her cochlear implant falling out too!" wrote one fan.
A second fan also praised Tasha, writing: "Tasha’s cochlear implant coming out mid performance, her smoothly putting it back in and smashing a performance like that?! She is in a league of her own!"

"Can we just talk about this argentine tango from Tasha and Aljaz it was absolutely brilliant and the lifts were incredible. And we wouldn't have known that her implant came off for a couple of seconds she just carried out which was amazing," noted a third fan.
Despite accruing an impressive 38 points, the routine wasn't enough for Tasha and Aljaž to top the leaderboard, with JB Gill and Lauren Oakley being at the summit after scoring 39 points for their Viennese Waltz to 'Let's Go Fly a Kite' from Mary Poppins.
Strictly Come Dancing airs on Saturdays on BBC One, while spin-off Strictly: It Takes Two airs on weeknights on BBC Two. Both shows are available to stream on BBC iPlayer.
