The pair found themselves in the dance-off against Kellie Bright and Kevin Clifton, after the judges' scores were combined with the viewers' votes.

Kirkwood and Kovalev performed their American Smooth to Shania Twain's 'Man! I Feel Like a Woman', while Bright and Clifton waltzed to Take That's 'Love Ain't Here Anymore'.

Craig Revel Horwood, Darcey Bussell and Bruno Tonioli all voted to save Bright and Clifton, sending Kirkwood and Kovalev home. Head judge Len Goodman said he agreed with his fellow judges' decision.

It marked the second time in a row that a female celebrity has been eliminated from this year's competition, following Kirsty Gallacher's exit last week.

Clifton found himself in the dance-off for the first time ever since his debut on the show in 2013.

After her exit, Kirkwood described her time on the show as "the most wonderful experience ever" and added that she'll never forget it.

"A huge thank you to everybody from the runners to the make-up, hair, wardrobe, the lovely judges and all your encouragement, the fabulous contestants, the crew, but more than that to Pasha," she said. "He's just wonderful. He's got the patience of a saint, the best teacher in the world, a gentleman and a gentle man."

Kovalev added: "I'm so proud of you. Working with you was the most amazing experience I have had on Strictly because I couldn't even believe that you can be so nice. I'm definitely going to miss you singing to me."

The results show featured a performance from Seal, who was joined on the dance floor by professional dancers Joanne Clifton and Giovanni Pernice. There was also a special Remembrance Sunday performance set to the Andrews Sisters' 'In the Mood'.

Strictly Come Dancing airs next weekend on Saturday, November 14 at 6.50pm and Sunday, November 15 at 7.20pm on BBC One.
