Strictly Come Dancing 2026: Who’s left and who is now the favourite to win?
Lawrence Robb's exit after the first-ever triple dance-off leaves 10 celebritiesStrictly Come Dancing is down to its final 10 couples after Emmerdale star Lawrence Robb and Jowita Przystał were sent home in the show’s first-ever triple dance-off.
So who’s left on Strictly now, and who is favourite to win?

Who left Strictly Come Dancing on Sunday?
Lawrence and Jowita landed in the bottom three on Sunday’s Halloween week results show, alongside Bethany Antonia and Nancy Xu, and Jaime Winstone and Carlos Gu.
For the first time in the show’s history, three couples had to dance again for the judges. Instead of saving a couple, the judges voted to send one home.
Shirley Ballas, Anton Du Beke and Craig Revel Horwood all chose to eliminate Lawrence and Jowita. Motsi Mabuse said she would have made the same decision.
Lawrence, who took a break from his role in Emmerdale as Mack Boyd for his Strictly stint, had scored 26 out of 40 on Saturday night for his tango to the Ghostbusters theme.
The result had leaked online in the early hours of Sunday, hours before the results show aired on BBC One.

- Lacey Turner and Vito Coppola: The EastEnders star, who has played Stacey Slater since 2004, topped the leaderboard with 36 for her Charleston.
- John Nellis and Katya Jones: The sports content creator scored 35 for his tango.
- Delta Goodrem and Kai Widdrington: The Australian singer and former Neighbours star scored 33 for her Viennese waltz to Unchained Melody.
- Cach Mercer and Maddie Ingoldsby: The 2025 Love Island winner also scored 33, for his Argentine tango.
- Will Best and Dianne Buswell: The Hits Radio presenter and former Big Brother host scored 32 for his Couple’s Choice.
- Dani Dyer and Nikita Kuzmin: The former Love Island star, who withdrew from last year’s series with a fractured ankle, scored 32 for her Viennese waltz.
- Bethany Antonia and Nancy Xu: The House of the Dragon actor scored 30 for her jive, but still ended up in the dance-off.
- Jaime Winstone and Carlos Gu: The Made in Dagenham actor scored 27 for her salsa and also survived the dance-off.
- Tabby Stoecker and Mark Karmalita: The Olympic skeleton champion scored 25 for her quickstep.
- Graeme Hall and Lauren Oakley: TV’s “Dog Father” also scored 25, for his samba.

Who is favourite to win Strictly 2026?
Lacey, who has been the fan favourite to win since launch, has also led the betting for much of the series.
She is now the bookies’ favourite once again, after bet365 cut her odds from 7/4 to 5/4 following her table-topping Charleston.
Tabby, who briefly overtook Lacey as favourite in October, has drifted from 13/8 to 15/8 after landing joint bottom of the leaderboard on Saturday.
Online Betting Guide’s Strictly betting expert Jake Ashton said: “It does look like a two-horse race now, and I wouldn’t argue with Lacey going back to the front.”
Delta is also one to watch at 7/1. The 41-year-old was forced to miss a week in October after breaking a rib, but she has bounced back with strong scores since her return.
John is 10/1 after scoring 35 for his tango, while Dani has been the big mover of the week, with her odds cut from 20/1 to 12/1.
