Her performance in the dance-off was poor \u2013 rushed, out-of-sync and littered with mistakes. All four judges opted to save Sopal and Caillon.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">During the judges\u2019 verdicts, Pattison looked as if she might be sick. \u201cThis is a horrible place to be,\u201d she had said beforehand.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Unsurprisingly, Sopal tackled the dance-off with no nerves whatsoever. She is an old hand at it now, with this Sunday being her fourth. She becomes only the fifth celebrity to survive four Strictly dance-offs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Three of them \u2013 Jamie Laing, Fleur East and Molly Rainford \u2013 went on to be losing finalists. The fourth, pop star Jamelia, is the only celebrity to have ever contested a fifth dance-off, which she lost.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Sopal has the chance to make history in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Craig Revel Horwood admitted the weekend had been \u201ca let-down\u201d, with low scores and inconsistent performances. His fellow judge Motsi Mabuse put it down to the pressure of not wanting to lose out on performing at the Blackpool Tower Ballroom at the last possible moment.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"Pattison\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"600\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/3ZtOfUUlDtcqx2NlVIuxZg--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTYwMDtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/the_telegraph_258\/b76fb35a212e4368328fe938f1e57155\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p>Pattison\u2019s performance was followed by a prolonged exit interview with Tess Daly &#8211; Guy Levy\/BBC<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Emotional and heartfelt intro videos from La Voix and George Clarke about losing loved ones added to a downbeat atmosphere throughout the weekend.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The dance-off itself had a strange tone, with Sopal admitting bluntly that she \u201cdidn\u2019t want to do it\u201d, while the whole thing made Revel Horwood \u201canxious\u201d.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">No one, however, was feeling worse than Pattison, who crumbled under the pressure and presented a dance-off jive that Mr Men\u2019s Mr Jelly would be proud of. An unusually prolonged exit interview with Tess Daly paid tribute to how much of a shock Pattison\u2019s performance was and how well thought of she is on the show. \u201cI let my nerves get in the way,\u201d she said. \u201cI\u2019m so, so gutted.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Next week, the remaining seven couples will compete at the \u201ciconic\u201d ballroom in Blackpool, but Pattison won\u2019t be among them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.telegraph.co.uk\/customer\/subscription\/store\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Try full access to The Telegraph free today.
