Actor Ricky Groves and his dance partner Erin Boag have become the latest couple voted off BBC1's Strictly Come Dancing.
Great Britain athlete Jade Johnson was also forced to withdraw from the competition after she failed to shake a ligament injury.
Groves and Boag were the lowest scoring contestants after performing the Tango and found themselves in the dance-off after the public vote.
Actress Laila Rouass was also in the dance-off but it was Groves and Boag who got their marching orders, with the EastEnders star admitting he "mucked up".
Johnson meanwhile was forced to leave the show, with concerns over possible damage to her long jump career.
"I'm a competitor and I don't give up easily so I'm absolutely gutted that it means that I can't continue dancing in the show," she said.
"I've had a great time and really enjoyed learning to dance, and I am going to miss training with Ian who has been a fantastic partner.
"I'd like to thank all of the people at home who have been supporting me right the way through."
