Strictly Come Dancing insiders have revealed that after last weeks shock exit of Gabby Logan, nerves are running high in the SCD camp.

The contestants were prepared for the criticisms of the judging panel, but they weren’t ready for the fickle British public, who seem to be going all out to vote for lame ducks like Kate Garraway and Kenny Logan.

A show insider reveals: “This has undoubtedly been the toughest week of the series so far. Nobody expected Gabby to go. No one could have predicted that she and Penny would have been in the bottom two. It was a massive shock – there have been more than just a few nerves jangling since then.”
