Strictly Come Dancing: Ellie and Vito get their scores<\/h3>\n

Strictly Come Dancing fans were complaining minutes into the latest show following Ellie Leach and Vito Coppola’s Quickstep. The duo opened Musicals’ Week with a performance to ‘Belle’ from Beauty and the Beast.<\/p>\n

At the end of the lively routine which opened the BBC show, judges Motsi Mabuse, Craig Revel Horwood, Anton Du Beke and Shirley Ballas were full of praise for the Coronation Street star. Kicking off the feedback, Shirley remarked: “A beautiful Belle, what a way to open our show this week.<\/p>\n

“And I felt within two minutes I watched a whole musical, I got the whole storyline, your narrative was really off the charts. What I also love is that you had the ability to separate, dance with another partner at the beginning and look just as good with him.”<\/p>\n

She went on to describe the routine as “elegant” and “simply divine”. Likewise, Anton applauded Ellie’s light feet and labelled her “the Belle of the ball”.<\/p>\n

Craig had one piece of criticism but stated Ellie had “grown as a dancer” and that he “absolutely loved it”. The couple had their fingers crossed for a 10, but Craig has so far not awarded one.<\/p>\n

Each judge went on to award Ellie and Vito a score of 9, giving them a total of 36 points out of a possible 40 points.<\/p>\n

While it’s a high number, fans of the show were left frustrated as to why they hadn’t achieved a perfect score following such promising feedback.<\/p>\n

Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, @RosieSharp12 fumed: “F***in robbed. #strictly.” (sic) @vxdkairwin asked: All 9s are you taking the p***?! #Strictly.”<\/p>\n
