Strictly Come Dancing viewers rush to support Pete Wicks after emotional confession on results show

Strictly Come Dancing viewers rallied around Pete Wicks on Sunday night's results show as he made a heartfelt confession. On Saturday, Pete, 36, and his dance partner Jowita Przystal found themselves at the bottom of the leaderboard with a score of 22 for their Salsa to Another One Bites The Dust.

After the performance, Pete, who was dressed as Freddie Mercury in tribute to the iconic singer, could be seen repeatedly apologising while Jowita tried to comfort him.

Following the judges' critique, which highlighted a few missteps, Pete spoke to host Claudia Winkleman about his Queen-themed routine, saying: "It was definitely an honour.

I think it's an ironic song for me tonight; another one bites the dust." Despite the performance not going as planned, Pete and Jowita were saved by the public vote on Sunday's results show.
