Thomas Skinner voted off Strictly Come Dancing as fans slam ‘abysmal’ routine
The Apprentice star and Amy Dowden have been voted off.
Thomas Skinner and Amy Dowden are the first couple to be voted off of Strictly Come Dancing 2025.
The duo have left the BBC competition following a dance off against Chris Robshaw and Nadiya Bychkova.
The judges’ scores this week were added to those from the first live show where there was no public vote.
These were then combined with the results of last night’s public vote to decide the two lowest scoring couples facing the dance off.
Both couples in the bottom two performed their routines again, with Thomas and Amy doing their Salsa to Bonkers by Dizzee Rascal and Armand van Helden.

With three votes in favour of Chris and Nadiya, they won the majority vote meaning that Thomas and Amy would be leaving the competition.
Motsi Mabuse – who this week was the judge with the deciding vote – said that she would also have chosen to save Chris and Nadiya, should she have been required to vote.
Thomas’s Saturday night performance left viewers ‘traumatised’ after they received a meagre 13 points.
Taking to social media, many fans were quick to criticise the 34-year-old’s exaggerated dance movements and tongue movements.
