Seven couples took to the Strictly stage on Saturday night, but now there are just six!
It was week six of this year's series and we saw some impressive dances. History was made after singer HRVY and his professional dance partner Janette scored 30 out of 30 for their street/commercial performance.
However, one couple had to leave the show and it was Radio 1 presenter Clara Amfo and partner Alja啪 Skorjanec who failed to make the cut this week.
The DJ ended up at the bottom of the leaderboard, scoring just 19 points for her energetic jive to the song River Deep.
Clara became the fifth contestant to leave Strictly Come Dancing 2020 after facing reality TV star Jamie Laing in the dance-off following the public vote.
It was Jamie and his partner Karen Hauer who won over two of the three judges with their tango.
"I've had the best time ever, and got a new friend for life. I've loved it, it's one of the best things I've ever ever done, it's been a dream come true," said Clara about her time on the show.
Her dance partner Aljaz also had some kind words for the presenter.
He said: "First I'm really gutted. All I really want to tell you is I'm so happy we got to do Lady Clamalade, the Claraston, which I've never done before in my life, the Clarasambafo you are a dream to be around, you're a beautiful girl inside out, I hope that people at home got to see that."
Do you think Clara should have been voted off? Let us know in the comments!
