The Strictly Come Dancing celebrities have been showing off their best moves as they compete for the top spot on the leaderboard - but who do YOU think will lift the Glitterball trophy this year?

Week 11 saw a shock exit - but not in the dance off. Six couples became four when Nigel Harman dramatically quit the competition just hours before the Saturday night show went on air. A BBC spokesperson confirmed his exit: "Unfortunately Nigel has sustained an injury which means he is unable to perform in tonight’s show and has had to withdraw from Strictly."

But the competition continued for the remaining contestants who dazzled the audience during Musicals week. We saw the first 40 of the series as Craig Revel Horwood finally lifted his 10 paddle for Layton Williams and Nikita Kuzmin, who dazzled with a sizzling Paso Doble.

Meanwhile, Ellie Leach and Vito Coppola finished the show in second place with a score of 36. Following closely behind was Bobby Brazier and Dianne Buswell, who managed to land in third place on the leaderboard – despite failing to pull off a dance move.

The couple performed a Dirty Dancing-inspired routine and got off to a smooth start but failed to nail the iconic lift. Judge Craig said: "The lift unfortunately failed in my eyes and the reason it failed is because you weren't far enough down on her hip to keep her up."

Annabel Croft and Johannes Radebe found themselves in fourth place after they danced a foxtrot to the track For Good from the musical Wicked, scoring 33 points from the judges. Anton Du Beke praised her frame as "the best in the whole competition" and said their performance mirrored their relationship "perfectly".
