Strictly Come Dancing Fans Distracted by Lewis Cope's Hips Minutes into the Show

The popular BBC One dancing competition, Strictly Come Dancing, returned to screens this weekend as it reached its halfway point. The couples performed once again, with another contestant set to leave on Sunday evening.

The previous week surprised fans when Ellie Goldstein and her professional partner, Vito Coppola, were eliminated after a dance-off with Balvinder Sopal and Julian Caillon. Ellie became a fan favorite during her time on the show, but the judges chose to save the EastEnders actress, ending Ellie's journey on the program.

Fans also remember the series’ first perfect score of 40, awarded to Emmerdale actor Lewis Cope and his professional partner, Katya Jones, in the prior week.
