Model and photographer Penny Lancaster Stewart became the sixth person to be voted off BBC One’s Strictly Come Dancing after failing to impress the judges in the dance off.

All the couples danced either the Viennese Waltz or the salsa, but once again one of those couples had to leave.

But it was Penny and Matt D’Angelo who found themselves in the bottom two competing in the dance off.

Of Penny’s first performance, the salsa, the judges said –

Arlene Phillips said: “It was like a canary and a crow flying in from Stansted not Cuba!” Score: 6.

Bruno Tonioli said: “Nobody can ever tell you that you don’t put everything you’ve got into it but tonight we were bordering on the hysterical. It was too much. Too tangled, too matted. The salsa has a fluid quality. I think you overdid it.” Score: 7.

Len Goodman said: “The salsa is an eclectic mix of different Latin rhythms. It’s got to have lots of good hip action and fun. And I have to say fun you did produce. It was entertaining, it was good fun. For me it was just a bit hectic throughout the dance.” Score: 7.

Craig Revel Horwood said: “Sorry not a fan. The energy was phenomenal but it made it displaced. It was unfocused and all over the place.” Score: 6.

Total: 25/40.

The judges’ leader board was:

Gethin and Camilla 36

John and NicoleE 36

Kelly and Brendan 36

Alicia and Matthew 35

Matt and Flavia 29

Kenny and Ola 26

Letitia and Darren 25

Penny and Ian 25

Kate and Anton 18

On the dance-off the judges said –

Craig: “It’s criminal you’re in the bottom two but based on this dance alone I’m saving Matt and Flavia.”

Arlene: “I’m staggered by the improvement of both couples but I’m saving Penny and Ian.”

Bruno: “Praise to both… based on this performance the Viennese Waltz was more polished… I’m saving Matt and Flavia.”

Len: “I feel like I’m putting someone out of the show but judging on what I’ve just seen I’m saving Matt and Flavia.”

The competition continues next week.

Model Penny Lancaster has announced that her plans for the year include (hopefully) winning the new series of Strictly Come Dancing, and then having another baby with rock star husband Rod Stewart.

Penny told The Sun:

“We hope there will be another one. We’re planning on it and hopefully after Strictly Come Dancing we’ll start trying again.

“My first pregnancy went very smoothly and I didn’t have any of the symptoms — no morning sickness, no cravings.”
