Ellie Leach and Vito Coppola Charleston to Love Machine by Girls Aloud ✨ BBC Strictly 2023 

Vito is absolutely hilarious! He’s naturally so funny 0:20 Ellie was thrown around like ragdoll it was insane ! Vito is so hyperactive he’s like the Duracell bunny. The man doesn’t stop. He even talks at 100 mph. He’s too adorable and this partnership is perfection

As a total novice, Ellie has become an absolutely amazing dancer. I've watched Strickly from the beginning and never missed an episode. This performance was a 40. They are my winners, and I hope that lift the glitter ball

Ellie did splendid in my opinion! The lifts scared me! 😮. She was getting proper lobbed around 😂. She brings such joy to her dances which I love, these two are another one of my favourite entertaining couples! I just love watching them, and she is so joyous and smiley! She’s excellent, she puts a real smile on my face

I'm still totally confused why this didn't get a 40!! It was OUTSTANDING!! When I heard they were doing the charleston I just knew it would be epic!! I honestly have no words, my winners for sure! ✨️🤩

Ellie is a class act , so glad she won it ...

Ellie’s dancing is so crisp, confident and energized! She looks absolutely freaking awesome!

this is truly one of the best dances ive seen in my life and ive been watching dwts and strictly for thirteen years now! absolutely incredible!

I absolutely loved this charleston! Ellie and Vito looked amazing and I loved the choreography and the setting of the dance! Should have been 40 for me! ❤❤

Love the choreography in this routine with not just basic Charleston steps but also elements of Lindy Hop and Swing. This suited Ellie and Vito so much! Amazing performance! ❤

Ellie and Vito are constantly outstanding. I hope they win.

This was absolutely brilliant! One of the best ever Charlestons in Strictly history! Fun, joyous, incredible, FAB-U-LOUS! Should've been a 40!!❤

What an incredible routine !! You just knew th ey could probably win it based on this dance going forwards.. flawless energy and techniques.

Honestly my faves! She’s absolutely smashed this out of the bag AGAIN!

Ellie did so fantastically with that Charleston!

Yea Ellie and her dance partner vito it was a amazing dance performance between the two couples on tonight's show on strictly come dancing

Omg!! That was so fantastic. It was so entertaining that I forgot that they were doing the Charleston! T wasn't the traditional but at the same time it was high paced, energetic and they are in sync with each other. What a performance by Vito and Ellie! So many fabulous lifts and the trust between those two is unbelievable!! 10/10

Incredible, totally deserved a 40 along with Layton and Nikita. Craig is just being ridiculous now.

HOW ON EARTH WITH SO MANY DIFFERENT TECHNIQUES ALL IN THERE EFFORTLESSLY DID THIS NOT FECKIN GET 40

Craig made me so angry this week. That deserved a 40. I was hoping this week to be exciting like last year but no that Grumpy Guy made it so dull. This was just perfection like Layton and Nikita. 10/10

Judge's scores ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Craig - 9 Motsi - *10!* Shirley - *10!* Anton - *10!* Total - 39

Fabulous! Her energy and musicality are something else!

So good she’s bloody fearless this girl

INCREDIBLE this was insane I loved it, why this didn't get a 40 is beyond me I don't think anybody can find the "tiny timing error" Craig was talking about 10/10

Ellie and Vito to win, they are fantastic dancers,they did so well on Saturday night.🏆❤️👍xx.

What an amazing Charlston in my opinion the best in strictly history full deserved 40 huge congratulations to Ellie and Vito this was pure joy 😊

Ellie and Vito has done it again. Constantly raising the bar for us all. And doing it so flawlessly. For 5 straight weeks Ellie has to continue to give perfection and really become that girl. She just has the overall package. Definite a clear shot to take this whole thing and snatch that glitterball. 10 for my fierce dancer !!!!!! 💖💖💖💖

Amazing and fluid a always. Brilliant. I want these two to win it this year :) have a good day reader :)

Wow!! Amazing!! As always, awesome!! The storytelling, the character! When Ellie was dancing on her own, she was almost indistinguishable from the other ladies. And she clearly trusts Vito. He was actually throwing her to all the other guys. Free falling without support. Just think if any of those guys didn't catch her. Dammit, if only that one moment wasn't ahead, that would be a 40

Ellie and Vito have to win! PLEASE EVERYONE VOTE ELLIE SHE AND VITO DESERVE THE GLITTERBALL COME ON! 🪩🪩🪩🏆🏆🏆💃🕺

Vito is just crazy chaotic energy hahaha He is brillant

This wa an absolute blast. A joy to watch as well as great fun. In the list of winners for sure.

Brilliant as always girl. The fighter for the glitter ball.

I loved this, so fun and refreshing! Totally deserved win.

This was the best dance ❤

They have certainly got their viewers love from the 'Love Machine', it was absolutely epic assuming Ellie wanted to do this dance from her bucket list and she should be very proud

You two are amazing. Your so cute together. I route for you both the most. Ellie you are so accurate and polished when you dance you could be a professional. I want you both to go all the way to the final and win. Keep going your both amazing. ❤xx

Scores ⭐️ Craig:9 Motsi:10 Shirley:10 Anton:10 🟰39

Very dynamic Charleston! And on a side note, that hairstyle looks really cute on Ellie.

The lifts in this dance were unbelievable!!! Extremely brave!!

A Charleston in trainers?! That can’t help! 🤣 A bit “jivey” but did love it with *fantastic* lifts. Looks so easy with Ellie! ❤

I’ve watched this more than 50 times help

My winners. I seriously hope Ellie continues dancing when strictly is over and becomes professional, because she seriously is a natural!

I loved the leap!! Majorly acrobatic! Well done!!

Love it. Ok sync insane tricks galore and amazing swivels

Yesterday was Sarah Harding’s (Girls Aloud) heavenly 42nd birthday. She would be very proud looking down at this 🩷🕊️🥰

I love this song

Now thats what I call a 40 dance!! ❤

Ellie goes from strength to strength every week. My fave couple. They are a delight to watch. Great job by Vito! Incredible lifts! Like the judges said, it takes complete trust in not only her partner, but a new dancer as well to accomplish that so flawlessly. Well done!

Pure joy. My winners!!

Ten for me . Wardrobe and backing dancers smashed it .

Fantastic performance 🎉🎉🎉 Amazing Choreography 👏 👏👏

I mean, the trust Ellie has in the other dancers is off the scale that one lift upside down into 2 dancers and Vito just carries on, fantastic 👏 40 all the way

I think in the strictly final is Ellie and Vito Layton and Nikita

Vito knows Ellie can win, I know it. I mean his choreo is WILD. Those lifts!? This was a 40, Craig.

Brilliant.... Should be this years winners!

Outstanding

Have to admit, this is the first dance of theirs that I've liked, but I LOVED this!!

Craig is on crack at this point. He had to give a 10 this week and this should have been the dance to give it. This was so phenomenal, creative and very entertaining! Absolutely spectacular!

Dance of the series. Absolute perfection. I hope they win the show.

Brilliant dance from Ellie and Vito. Highlight of Saturdays show. It’s remarkable she only has I week to learn these new routines and she was totally in sync with Vito who is a machine. Absolutely fantastic. Get your 10 out Craig it totally deserved a 40.👏👏👏

This is like pure joy in dance 😀

My favourite to win! 💯

Their gonna win ❤

God bless those singers: “peel Off my neglige-y “.. 😂😂

The best dancers on strictly keep up the great work

Sometimes I feel like Craig doesn't give a 10 at this point in the competition on purpose, but this dance is still good, eventually he'll give a 10 sooner or later

Aww this was so joyous! So fun and the lifts were out of this world! I think they may be my winners!! Vito is also hilarious!! I am annoyed at Craig though... what on earth is someone supposed to do to get a 10 from him??

Should be 4 10s absolutely brilliant

Phew I'm amazed

Amazing😍😍!

The lifts 👍👍👍

BEST CHARLESTON EVER 10

Them two are like siblings 😅 ❤vito to bits

Instant strictly classic!

Score - *10/10* Another dance that should have been a 40! Ugh what more can Ellie do aswell, I do typically prefer a more traditional Charleston if im honest but this was mesmerising her lifts were jaw dropping, her energy and synchronisation was so strong, brilliant acting and theming, her swivel was perfect and she extended the line brilliantly. It didn't stop it was so full on and precise. Also, if they don't date after the show then I'm eating Craig's 10 paddle, I swear they are in love the way he looks at her and the way they cuddle eachother 🥺

Ellie and Vito are winners 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆

My score 10 undermarked again should have been 40

Wow wow wow AMAZING 4 10's for sure Craig you sorry you need glasses lol xx

Brilliant!

That was brilliant

These are soooo getting it on

Just fab 🎉

Craig-9 Motsi-10 Shirley-10 Anton-10 Me-10 Total-49/50

I love how Ellie doesn’t have a care in the world whilst she gets thrown around by Vito and the backup dancers 😂

Undermaked should have been a 40 its a ten for me

vito so cute

My winners!!! They are amazing together! Craig knew fine well it was a 10, he just likes to be a beep!

This deserved 40 the most out of all the dances and Craig still wouldn’t give 😩

Amazing to see it

I thought I was watching a pro dance it was absolutely fantastic.

Wow 👌 just nothing but awesome 👌 and something more! If this didn't convince Craig Revel Horwood to give them a 10, nothing will!! I can imagine how much of an honour it is to dance in The Blackpool Tower Ballroom!! This is definitely Vito and Ellie's best dance yet! and they never fail to surprise us!!! 👌👌😁😁

our scores: me: 10 diya: 10 kelsey: 10 owen: 9 39/40 that had EVERYTHING i want in a charleston. full of energy, character, expression, LIFTS, it was phenomenal.

Undermarked! Brilliant routine ❤

I don't think I could name a dance that's ever been more worth full marks

That lift up and around the ankle looks very much like a lift from a boogie woogie championship final. It would have been VERY interesting if they would have done the first! Great routine and nice fringe!! Suits
