Susan Calman has survived the public vote and will be heading to Blackpool for the next round of Strictly Come Dancing.

The Scottish comedian and dancing partner Kevin Clifton, who scored 27 points from the judges yesterday, avoided the dance-off, which was between Ruth Langsford and Jonnie Peacock. Ruth Langsford was eliminated.

Susan Calman has survived the Strictly Come Dancing vote and will be back next week.

The lawyer-turned-comedian and partner Kevin Clifton went Game of Thrones on the latest round of Strictly Come Dancing, doing the foxtrot to Killer Queen. Susan Calman dressed as Mother of Dragons Daenerys Targaryen, Kevin Clifton dressed as Jon Snow.

The judges were not entirely convinced. Shirley Ballas said "it lacked grace."

Craig Revel Horwood quipped: "I thought my ride-on mower at home had more grace and elegance."

Susan Calman has survived the vote and stays in Strictly Come Dancing for another week. 

Instead entertainer Brian Conley and his partner Amy Dowden were voted off.

The public vote landed Conley and Dowden the Dance Off against Simon Rimmer and his partner Karen Clifton. Judges Craig and Darcey chose to save Simon for another week running, automatically sending Brian home after five weeks in the competition before Head Judge Shirley had to make her decision.

Due for broadcast later this year, the series - which combines a murder mystery drama with a gameshow - will transport three players and viewers at home to the fictional town of Mortcliff where a dastardly crime has been committed. Their task: to discover whodunnit.
