The pair found themselves in the dance-off alongside Sunetra Sarker and Brendan Cole.

Backshall's Jive with Jordan earned the pair 23 points during last night's show (November 22), while Sarker's Waltz earned 30 points.

After the dance-off, Craig Revel Horwood decided to save Sarker, while Darcey Bussell sided with Backshall.

Bruno Tonioli saved Sarker, and head judge Len Goodman had the deciding vote and saved Sarker.

On leaving the competition Backshall said: "I don't think you can underestimate the achievement to take someone who was quite as bad as I was and get them to week nine!

"I am bursting with pride with what everyone has achieved."

The night also saw two musical performances from Barry Manilow, who sang 'Copacabana' and 'What a Wonderful World'.

Strictly Come Dancing continues next Saturday (November 29) on BBC One at 7pm, for an 'around the world' theme.
