It wouldn\u2019t be a series of Strictly Come Dancing<\/a> without some unexpected twists and turns and Tilly Ramsay\u2019s journey has certainly been one nobody could have predicted.<\/p>\n

For the last two weeks, the chef and YouTube star has had to fight for her place in the competition, facing off against Adam Peaty in Week Seven and Sara Davies in Week Eight.<\/p>\n

This week, however, Tilly and her professional partner Nikita Kuzmin ended up top of the Strictly leaderboard<\/a> after performing a Couple\u2019s Choice routine to Revolting Children from Matilda as part of Musicals Week.<\/p>\n

Not only that, but she earned a perfect score of 40, with all four judges \u2013 including guest judge Cynthia Erivo<\/a>, filling in for an absent Craig Revel Horwood<\/a> \u2013 awarding the pair 10 points.<\/p>

Tilly and Nikita\u2019s stiffest competition came from AJ Odudu<\/a> and Kai Widdrington, who earned the second place spot on the leaderboard after earning 38 points \u2013 the highest-scored waltz of the series<\/a> \u2013 after performing to Edelweiss from The Sound of Music.<\/p>\n

Joint bottom this week were\u00a0 Dan Walker<\/a> and Nadiya Bychkova \u2013 who performed the Charleston to Good Morning from Singin\u2019 In The Rain \u2013 and Tom Fletcher<\/a> and Amy Dowden \u2013 who performed a Couple\u2019s Choice dance to On My Own from Les Mis\u00e9rables.<\/p>\n

It wasn\u2019t all bad news for Tom, though, with the McFly star receiving a surprise message of support from none other than Russell Crowe<\/a>, who played Javert in the 2012 film version of Les Mis\u00e9rables.<\/p>\n

Less than 24 hours to go till we find out how the public voted and who\u2019ll be dancing again to save their place in the competition. After that performance, surely not Tilly?<\/p>\n
