Strictly Come Dancing viewers were left baffled on Saturday night following the judges' scoring of Annabel Croft and Johannes Radebe's Viennese Waltz.
The couple performed two stunning routines, the first was a Salsa to 'You'll Be Mine (Party Time)' by Gloria Estefan, while the second dance was a Viennese Waltz to 'Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want' by Slow Moving Millie.

Taking to social media, one person asked: "What's going on?! @jojo_radebe and @Annabel_Croft seriously undermarked #vienneseWaltz #Strictly," while another remarked: "Honestly think Annabel was veryyy undermarked there. How on EARTH did the judges think that dance was only worthy of 1 point more than her salsa???? A 33 for that dance is CRIMINAL."

Undermarked," while a fourth confused fan wrote: "That was incredible & I can't understand why @Annabel_Croft & Johannes have been undermarked."
It was an emotional night for Annabel and Johannes, who became teary when asked by host Claudia Winkleman why his dance partner deserved to go through to the final next weekend.
"Claudia, this woman has really respected our art form of ballroom and latin and you have taken to training like duck to water," said the pro dancer. "And look at how beautiful you are now because you're a beautiful swan, darling. When I tell you this has been the hardest year for Annabel and we all know that, but not only for her, for her family as well.

In Sunday's results show, another couple will be sent home, missing out on the chance to compete in the grand final in a bid to lift the coveted Glitterball trophy.
Competing alongside Annabel are Layton Williams and his partner Nikita Kuzmin, Bobby Brazier and Dianne Buswell, and Ellie Leach and Vito Coppola.
For this week's show, the scores from the quarter-final were carried into week 12 following Nigel Harman's shock exit from the competition.

Nigel and his dance partner Katya Jones were forced to pull out of the show after the EastEnders star suffered an injury to his rib.
