BBC Strictly Come Dancing's Vito Coppola says 'it's not enough' in joint Sarah Hadland message

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Vito Coppola has told fans that his and Sarah Hadland's gratitude to them is 'not enough' as they addressed their Strictly Come Dancing future in a joint message.

The pair took part in week ten of the BBC One dance contest, which took place in Strictly's usual Elstree Studio ballroom on Saturday night (November 23), following their epic Fosse-style couple's choice routine in Blackpool the previous weekend, which saw them finish joint top of the leaderboard.

During the latest live show, they were second out and were seen serving up a sizzling rumba to Chains by Tina Arena. The actress was twirled and dipped by reigning champion Vito before they secured a score of 36 out of a possible 40, the highest score for a rumba in the series.

Anton Du Beke agreed, saying it was one of her best performances, but Craig Revel Horwood thought it "lacked chemistry". Strictly fans rushed to defend Sarah's performance and it was clear that the support translated into votes for the actress and professional dancer Vito as it was confirmed during Sunday night's (November 24) results show that they had made it through to the quarter-finals.
