Fans were not impressed when Catherine was eliminated from the BBC show on Sunday night.

She had faced Mike Bushell and his professional dance partner Katya Jones in the dreaded dance-off.

While Motsi Mabuse and Bruno Tonioli opted to save Catherine, Craig Revel Horwood chose to save Mike.

However, the deciding vote came down to head judge Shirley Ballas who ultimately chose to send Catherine home.

Viewers were furious, branding the decision a fix with some also calling for Shirley to be sacked.

However, it is unlikely Will will be replaced in the competition.

One fan shared on Twitter: “When this has happened before there’s still been an elimination each week and then just less people in the final.

“But not totally sure about this year. Also there wouldn’t really be much time for Catherine to do a dance well for this week.”
