Shirley Ballas has addressed why she didn't opt to save Layton Williams during the latest Strictly Come Dancing dance-off as she claimed he 'didn't follow the rules'.

The head judge went against her fellow judges during the BBC One dance contest's latest results show. On Saturday night, the remaining six couples were vying for a place in week eleven of the competition - which is also musicals week - and there were tears and standing ovations in the ballroom as Bobby Brazier dedicated his latest Strictly routine to his mother Jade Goody.

But Sunday night (November 26) was, unfortunately, all about the dance-off and it was Layton Williams and Angela Scanlon who found themselves fighting for their place in the competition.

Both couples performed their routines again. Layton and his dance partner Nikita Kuzmin performed their American Smooth to ‘It’s Oh So Quiet’ by Björk.
