Strictly Come Dancing fans are speculating the show may be fixed after not seeing all of Fleur East's dance-off.
The dance-off took place on Saturday night, however it wasn't aired until the following evening and saw Fleur and EastEnders actor James Bye go head-to-head in a bid to make it through to next week's show.
But fans weren't shown the full dance off from the night. On Sunday it was revealed that Fleur and her partner Vito, 30, were saved by the judges and James and his partner Amy Dowden were sent home. But now an insider is saying that Fleur and Vito actually fell to the floor which made the audience let out a huge gasp.
The pair were then allowed to restart their dance after being seen by on site medical professionals. Speaking to The Sun, the mole said: "Poor Fleur looked stunned and devastated, and no one really knew what was happening on or off stage. Eventually, the warm-up guy came on and addressed the audience while Fleur and Vito got checked out. They started their dance again and obviously this second version was the one aired. There was no reference to the fall by the judges either."
The insider went on to say that the EastEnders star wasn't too fussed by the move as he believed Fleur was the better dancer out the two, although the decision left many others shocked. The insider raged: "It's not exactly a live performance if stars get to have another crack of the whip."
However after rumours speculated, a spokesperson for the BBC said: "After an incident with a prop at the beginning of Fleur and Vito's dance-off performance, the decision was made to halt proceedings to check they were not injured. As they had not begun to dance before the incident occurred, it was decided they could start the performance again, once it was confirmed they were fit to do so."
Fleur spoke about the brutal dance-off on Hits Radio Breakfast Show with to co-presenter James Barr. She said: "I have no idea why I'm in the bottom two – it's out of my hands, out of my control. All I can do is rehearse every week and do my best, have the most fun and that's what I'm doing."
Strictly Come Dancing returns on Sunday at 7.20pm on BBC One.
