Jody Cundy CBE and Jowita Przystal have become the latest pair to leave Strictly Come Dancing. The couple were axed after Eddie Kadi and Karen Hauer were saved by judges Craig Revel Horwood, Motsi Mabuse, Anton Du Beke, and Shirley Ballas.
Jody and Jowita danced the Salsa to Samba de Janeiro by Bellini, while Eddie and Karen showcased their American Smooth to Sex Bomb by Tom Jones in a bid to remain in the competition.
After both couples had danced a second time, the judges delivered their verdict, with all four members of the panel saving Eddie and Karen. Craig said he chose the pair for "improvement and musicality".
While Anton said: "Well, based on the dance-off and the dance-off only, I thought one couple danced very well and one couple had a bit of an off night, there were a couple of mistakes there so I would like to save Eddie and Karen."
Jody said: "You know what, when I signed up for this I thought 'what on earth am I signing up for?' and we did that first live show and I absolutely loved every second of it. And just being able to dance and do something I've never done before and get completely out of my comfort zone and with this amazing person.
"This person's got so much energy, every morning at like 9 o'clock we've got the start of training and she's like BAMMM, like this, she comes into the room like an absolute cannonball and she just doesn't stop the whole day.
"She doesn't lose any faith, doesn't lose anything, motivates me to do more and more. So I've had an absolute blast."
Jody and Jowita's exit comes after Nikita Kanda and Gorka Marquez became the second couple to be voted off the show last week, while Les Dennis and Nancy Xu were the first.

Adam Thomas is taking the dancefloor by storm in this year's series of Strictly Come Dancing. However, the actor was forced to pull out from spin-off show It Takes Two on Friday after it was revealed he had been unwell over recent days. In tonight's episode though the 35-year-old was back fighting fit and even performed his 'best' dance yet, according to both the judges and fans.
Strictly Come Dancing contestant Adam Thomas had to miss a scheduled appearance on BBC spin-off show It Takes Two tonight - just 24 hours before he is due to dance the American Smooth on Saturday's live show.
Strictly Come Dancing star Angela Scanlon has warned the judges 'don't mess' as her dance partner Carlos gave a short one-word reply to the feedback given during Saturday's live show. On Wednesday night (October 25), the Irish TV presenter and professional dancer appeared on Strictly's spin-off show It Takes Two to chat to host Janette Manrara.
Strictly Come Dancing may be about to lose Karen Hauer from its professional line-up, some of the fans believe. Part of the choreography team since 2012, the Venezuelan-American, 41, has partnered with celebrities including Westlife singer Nicky Byrne, TOWIE's Mark Wright, Pop Idol winner Will Young and comedian Chris Ramsey, but Karen's dream of lifting the Glitterball trophy looks to be gone forever.

Strictly Come Dancing bosses have spoken out in response to favouritism reports, which claimed EastEnders star Bobby Brazier, 20, and documentary maker Zara McDermott, 26, were being favoured over other celebrities on the show.

Strictly Come Dancing's Zara McDermott has told fans she 'let herself down' after ending up in the dance-off for the second time. The BBC dance contest returned this weekend for its fifth week which saw 11 of the 12 remaining couples take to the ballroom to compete for their spot on the show.
Eddie Kadi's time on Strictly Come Dancing has come to an end as he lost out to reality star Zara McDermott during Sunday's tense dance-off.
