The BBC today revealed that the Strictly Come Dancing results show will revert back to a Sunday, and there will be no dance off.

The corporation confirmed rumours that the Saturday results show would be axed, so that viewers would be given a longer time to vote. They then said that the elimination would continue as a straight elimination without a dance off, meaning the couple with the lowest combined judges scores and public vote would be automatically out.

The new series begins on Saturday 16 March, with the first elimination on Sunday 24 March.

The Daily Mail has today published an article criticising John Barrowman's previous dance experience.

The article claimed that Barrowman had an unfair advantage over the other competitors because of his theatre and stage career. He has starred in productions of Anything Goes, Cinderella, Robin Hood and Jack In The Beanstalk.

Barrowman's later tweeted in response:

"I have never had ballroom or Latin dance training. I'm on SCD to push myself and do the best I can.."

This comes after Denise Van Outen was criticised in a similar way when radio DJ Chris Evans said that she was a professional dancer and should be axed from the show in 2012.

Perry & Kristina

Training
Perry tells us he is scared stiff about dancing in front of millions of people but is up for the challenge. He is most worried about messing one of his dances up - and hopes that will never happen.

Dance
Waltz - Manuel - Women In Love

Comments
Craig - A complete dance disaster darling
Darcey - Oh Perry I do feel bad for you. You gave it your all but it didn’t quite cut it for me
Len - I think you know how badly that went. It is a big shame
Bruno - Perry, Perry, Perry. That really was dreadful, make sure you come back next week bigger and stronger

Scores
Craig - 2
Darcey - 4

Louise & Robin

Training
Louise says she is hoping the public will see the party girl that is inside her, not just a woman told to look smart. She hopes her nerves will go away within a few weeks and hopes that her and Robin will go quite far.

Dance
Cha Cha Cha - Spice Girls - Stop

Comments
Craig - You did mess up your footwork slightly but all in all, a decent dance
Darcey - You seemed very unconfident, but it is the first week, I want more attitude next time
Len - I think the others are correct - there were a few inaccuracies but it is your first dance
Bruno - Louise your hips were certainly moving tonight! It
had punch and spice and I liked it

Scores
Craig - 6
Darcey - 6
Len - 6
Bruno - 6

Total - 24/40

Louise says she is delighted with that score
