BBC Strictly Come Dancing fans issue complaint as star in tears over first 10s of 2024 series

by · Manchester Evening News

Strictly Come Dancing fans said they 'had a feeling' Tasha Ghouri would be the constant to get the first 10s of the series as the moment left her in tears.

The former Love Island star was back in the ballroom on Saturday night (October 12) alongside dance partner Aljaz Skorjanec and the pair were hoping to impress after topping the leader board once again last week following their Barbie-themed rumba during Movie Week.

And the pair ended up doing just that as they closed week four of the competition with their Coachella-themed Charleston to Unhealthy by Anne-Marie and Shania Twain.

Head judge Shirley Ballas told Tasha and Aljaz that he couldn't fault the performance, while Craig Revel Horwood called Tasha 'amazing' and Anton Du Beke hailed the routine as 'practically perfect' as the dancing couple topped the leader board for a third week running.

Tasha and Aljaz scored a whopping 39 points as Craig awarded her a respectable 9 points, while Shirley, Anton, and Motsi Mabuse went all the way with 10 points each. As she got her scores, Tasha broke down into tears after she was also seen getting emotional about her mum being in the audience being in the audience for the first time this series - and what a night it ended up being.

The reality star couldn't speak as Claudia Winkleman comforted her. "It's a lot, I know," the co-host said. "It's a lot and I saw your face and it's amazing but I know..."

Great but not 10 worthy. Is it just me?"
