Sunday is here, which means it\u2019s time for another hardworking celebrity to be voted out of Strictly Come Dancing 2021<\/a> \u2013 even though Judi Love didn\u2019t compete this week<\/a> due to a positive COVID test, one of the other contestants was still sent home after the Week Five dance-off.<\/p>\n

Of the 10 celebs that danced this week, Ugo Monye and Rhys Stephenson were the two that had to compete in the dance-off. Ugo\u2019s inclusion wasn\u2019t too shocking (he was at the bottom of the Strictly Come Dancing leaderboard<\/a> going into Sunday night\u2019s show), but it was quite surprising to see Rhys dancing for his place in the show (he was sixth based on the judges\u2019 scores).<\/p>\n

The CBeebies presenter and his partner Nancy Xu took to the dance floor once again with their American Smooth to I\u2019ve Got The World On A String by Michael Bubl\u00e9, while the rugby pundit and Oti Mabuse took another stab at their Rumba to Leave The Door Open by Bruno Mars, Anderson .Paak, and Silk Sonic.<\/p>\n

And when the judges\u2019 decisions came in, the choice to save Rhys and Nancy was unanimous among all four judges, meaning that Ugo and Oti were eliminated from the competition. This makes Ugo\u2019s time on the show particularly short, considering that he missed last week due to back problems<\/a>.<\/p>

Judge Motsi Mabuse summed up the decision to send Ugo home, saying, \u201cI feel from the two couples, one couple was definitely stronger in this performance and I will save Rhys and Nancy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Speaking to Tess Daly after receiving the news of his knockout, Ugo summed up his Strictly journey like so: \u201cI\u2019ve loved it. It\u2019s an absolute privilege to be on this show and all I\u2019ve wanted to do every week is just get a little bit better and I\u2019ve done that.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s lots of people that I would love to say thank you to. Oti, firstly, just for putting up with me. She said she wanted a challenge and she got one! To everyone else that\u2019s in the competition, it\u2019s truly incredible and I wish you all the very best of luck. To the judges \u2013 Craig \u2013 I think it\u2019s really important to say that if you\u2019re willing to accept the positive comments, you have to accept the criticism as well so thank you for all of your comments.\u201d<\/p>\n
