In Saturday’s Halloween special, Jamie Borthwick and Sarah Hadland shone brightly, both topping the leaderboard with 38 points.

Jamie and Michelle Tsiakkas wowed the judges with a spooky American Smooth to The Addams Family Theme, while Sarah and Vito Coppola’s Argentine Tango to Ready or Not by Fugees was equally impressive, securing their shared top spot.

Tasha Ghouri and Aljaž Škorjanec were close behind, scoring 37 points with a lively Samba to I Like to Move It Move It. Montell Douglas and Johannes Radebe also delivered a strong performance with their Cha Cha, earning 35 points.

At the lower end, Chris McCausland and Dr Punam Krishan both struggled, finishing with 26 points, leaving them at risk of the dance-off.

The judges’ scores were combined with viewer votes to determine the bottom two for the dance-off.

Punam & Gorka and Shayne & Nancy found themselves in the bottom two and had to perform again for the judges. The judges unanimously chose to save Shayne, meaning Punam was eliminated from the competition.
