The fight for the Glitterball trophy is well and truly under way as the Strictly Come Dancing win is causing a divide for two stars, while the other two finalists have been dealt a crushing blow days before returning to the ballroom.

The final of the BBC One dance contest will take place this Saturday (December 14) and the couples who have made it through to the last week of the competition this year were recently confirmed following Pete Wicks and Jowita Przystal's gutting exit in the semi-final.

As they became the eleventh couple to leave Strictly's 20th anniversary series on Sunday night (December 8), it meant that Sarah Hadland and Vito Coppola, JB Gill and Lauren Oakley, Chris McCausland and Dianne Buswell and Tasha Ghouri and Aljaz Skorjanec are this year's finalists.
