Strictly fans scored Fleur lower than the judges - but Hamza is still in the lead

Strictly Come Dancing celebrated 100 years of the BBC this weekend, bringing with it dazzling routines to iconic theme tunes - but which dance was your favourite?

From Grange Hill to Grandstand, the star-studded celebrities took to the dance floor to show off their best moves as they whirled into week five.

It was the end of the road for comedian Jayde Adams and her professional partner Karen Hauer following their defeat to Molly Rainford and Carlos Gu in the dance-off.

Viewers appeared to agree with the final decision as they scored the losing pair a measly 5.2 after their Charleston to Victoria Wood’s classic The Ballad Of Barry and Freda (Let’s Do It).

Every week we’re giving readers the chance to score the dancers and let us know whether they thought Craig Revel Horwood was bang out of order, or if it really was too early for that 10 from Shirley.

Following Saturday night’s display, Hamza Yassin and Jowita Przystal landed on top of the scoreboard for the second week running after they danced the quickstep to On Top Of The World.

Strictly fans gave the electric pair an impressive 8.6 for their performance, while Helen Skelton and Gorka Marquez followed closely behind with their score of 8.5.

Will Mellor and Nancy Xu claimed third place after receiving a steady 7.7 from viewers, despite securing eights across the board on show night.

At the other end of the leader board is Tony Adams and Katya Jones, who claimed just 4.7 for their cheerful Cha Cha Cha to the Grandstand theme tune.

Meanwhile, CBBC star Molly and her partner Carlos failed to impress fans as they received an average score of 6.3 for their Couple’s Choice to Grange Hill.

The judges gave Molly a combined total of 30 points, which is their lowest score so far in the competition.

In a shocking twist, Fleur East and Vito Coppola landed in the middle of the scoreboard as they received just 6.8 for their Abba-solutely fantastic jive to Waterloo.

However, the judges enjoyed the performance and placed the radio host in forth position on the leader board.

Viewers placed James Bye and Amy Dowden above Fluer as they gave the EastEnders star a 6.9, but the judges didn’t agree as they landed in second to last position on Saturday night.

Elsewhere on the board, viewers gave Kym Marsh and Graziano Di Prima a 7.2, while Ellie Simmonds and Nikita Kuzmin received 6.6.
