It’s back to Albert Square for Tameka Empson, as she became the latest celebrity to leave Strictly.
The EastEnders actress and her professional partner Gorka Marquez were eliminated after losing in the dance-off to Laura Whitmore and Giovanni Pernice.
Viewers on Twitter are gutted to see Tameka leave.
Shame! Terrible shame #scd #Strictly pic.twitter.com/nVhZIEcMi2

And it isn’t just Tameka – Gorka has his share of fans too.
I can't cope with how upset I am that Gorka is going home #SCD #Strictly pic.twitter.com/Gz3C25i64d
