Gavin and Stacey actress Melanie Walters has become the second celebrity to leave this season of Strictly Come Dancing. The 64-year-old actress was eliminated alongside her professional dance partner, Aljaz Skorjanec, after losing the dance-off against former footballer Shaun Wright-Phillips and his partner, Alexis Warr.
Walters and Skorjanec found themselves in the bottom two for the second consecutive week. Despite their efforts to improve their scores, the judges decided to save Wright-Phillips and Warr which brought Walters’ journey on the BBC dance competition to an end.
