A massive 91.2 per cent of Strictly Come Dancing viewers agree that the right person won last night, a new RadioTimes.com poll reveals.

EastEnders star Rose Ayling-Ellis became the latest champion after three powerful performances with dance partner Giovanni Pernice, beating John Whaite and Johannes Radebe for the title.

In comparison, only 8.8 per cent of people thought that Strictly’s first ever all-male couple should have won instead. John and Johannes put up an outstanding fight but ultimately earned the title of runners-up.

It was an emotional night all round as the judges were moved all over again by Rose’s tribute to the deaf community, and John once again channelled Jack Sparrow with his Paso Doble.
