by · Manchester Evening News

Strictly Come Dancing fans said they spotted one of the show's stars looking 'fuming' during the latest results show amid backlash to the judges' decision.

The seventh results show of the series on Sunday night (November 10) saw another dreaded dance-off take place after celebrity contestants Shayne Ward and Wynne Evans landed in the bottom two with their respective professional dance partners Nancy Xu and Katya Jones.

It saw both couples having to re-perform their latest routines, with Shayne and Nancy reprising their rumba to Time After Time by Cyndi Lauper before Wynne and Katya took to the dance floor again with their American Smooth to Grace Kelly by MIKA.

After both couples had danced a second time, the judges delivered their verdicts: Craig Revel Horwood chose to save Shayne and Nancy, as did Motsi, while Anton Du Beke chose to save Wynne and Katya. With two votes in favour of Shayne and Nancy, the decision came down to head judge Shirley, who decided to save Wynne and Katya.

During the confirmation of Shayne and Nancy being sent home, Strictly fans said they couldn't help but notice Nancy looking unhappy with the result. @NoRoutineHere said: "Nancy wasn't happy at the end and rightly so, Shirley keeping in Wynne because his dance was more joyous is such a weird reason. Did you want Shayne to do the rumba dressed as Mickey Mouse or something Shirley... #StrictlyComeDancing #Strictly."

@seonarenaiss commented: "Nancy looked like she was fuming." @divodiva_12 replied: "Yes I felt the same. She looked livid. Can't blame her." @margaret.weldon.50 echoed: "She probably was, and rightly so." @iamchristianrojo added: "and Katya looked really surprised. Goes to show who REALLY won that dance off."
