Strictly 2025 live: Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman front very first program following bombshell statement

In spite of just scoring a 14 for her cha-cha-cha, La Voix was conserved by the voting public, and it wound up being Chris Robshow and Balvinder Sopal dealing with each other in the dance-off. It was close in the decision, with Shirley and Anton deciding to conserve Chris, while Motsi and Craig, who had the casting vote, both conserved Balvinder.

Assessing his time on the program, Chris stated: “I have actually liked it, I have actually had an incredible partner, for me, coming onto this journey, I had no self-confidence. To be informed I had world class qualities on the dancefloor today, despite the fact that we need to go home, that’s incredible to hear so thank you quite. It’s provided me such self-confidence.”
