Strictly spoilers and results 2024: Who is leaving on Strictly Come Dancing Week 11?
Do you feel a song coming on? If you do, it's probably because it's Strictly Come Dancing's annual Musicals Week special. That's right; get in front of a microphone and warm up those vocal chords because it's time to spread the music everywhere for what is sure to be another memorable week of the best musical theater-inspired routines you can imagine.
One other important thing to remember is that this is also the Quarter Final, so the six remaining couples will be competing for a place in next week's coveted Semi-Final, which will bring them within touching distance of the beloved Glitterball Trophy. And after last week's episode saw the premature exit of favorites Jamie and Michelle, it's clear that anything can happen in the business end of the competition. But before the Semi-Final arrives, it's all singing and dancing from them as Strictly brings back its most beloved theme week of all.
Who hit their high notes on Musicals Week and which performances fell a little flat? Here are all the Strictly spoilers, results, and scores from the Week 11 Saturday Night show, and everything else that went down (or defied gravity) on the night.
Strictly spoilers and results: Week 11 Leaderboard
Oh what a night! Strictly's Musicals Week Quarter Final may be the shortest episode of the entire series but it certainly presented us with some unforgettable routines. As always, the extra dancers were back for the performances, the costume and make-up department outdid themselves once again, and the contestants brought their A-Game once again!
We had our second-annual Wicked-inspired number (which, although unusual to have the same musical featured for two consecutive years, made sense given the Wicked phenomenon right now) as Sarah and Vito took on the Charleston, and a Six-inspired Argentine Tango from Tasha and Aljaž. Meanwhile, Montell and Johannes took on the Rumba to a song from The Color Purple, Pete and Jowita slowed things down with a West Side Story Waltz, JB and Lauren tried to "Fly a Kite" in a Mary Poppins-inspired Viennese Waltz, and Chris and Dianne Quickstepped to "You're The Top" from Anything Goes.
Here are all of the results from the Strictly Week 11 Saturday night Musicals Week show, the scores that each of the dances were given, and the Leaderboard we were left with at the end of the show:
- JB and Lauren danced the Viennese Waltz - 39
- Sarah and Vito danced the Charleston - 38
- Tasha and Aljaž danced the Argentine Tango - 38
- Montell and Johannes danced the Rumba - 32
- Chris and Dianne danced the Quickstep - 32
- Pete and Jowita danced the Waltz - 26
Who is in danger on Strictly Come Dancing Week 11?
For yet another week running, we have two ties on the Leaderboard, which makes the Dance-Off that much harder to call. The reason being that it turns almost everything over to the public vote, as the judges' scores carry less weight. Pete is at the bottom of the Leaderboard, but he isn't at the bottom with only 1 point; he has 3 points because of the two ties, and that makes it much easier for him to escape the Dance-Off.
It also puts one of the two tied couples at a disadvantage as one of them is going to get more votes from the public, breaking the tie and potentially leaving them in the Dance-Off. That means that one of Sarah and Vito, and Tasha and Aljaž could be in jeopardy along with one of Montell and Johannes and Chris and Dianne. Yes, Pete is in danger of the Dance-Off as he's at the bottom of the Leaderboard, but not quite as much danger as he would have been in if there were no ties.
Taking all of that into account, we're predicting a Dance-Off between Montell and Johannes and Tasha and Aljaž (with an outside chance of Pete landing there instead of one of those couples).
As always, the public vote is unpredictable so it could change everything, we'll have to wait and see.
Update, Sunday December 1: Montell and Johannes were in the Dance-Off with Tasha and Aljaž. The judges saved Tasha and Aljaž which sadly eliminated Montell and Johannes from the competition.
Montell and Johannes have been one of the strongest couples this series, earning the adoration from the public throughout their time on the dancefloor. It's safe to say that they deserved to be in the Semi-Final and we'll miss seeing "Team Mojo" in the competition next week. But they have been nothing short of a joy to watch.
