Strictly Come Dancing's Vito was left embarrassed after making a mistake on the popular BBC One show's latest results episode on Sunday night (November 5). Vito and his celebrity partner Ellie sailed through to the next week after wowing the judges with their American Smooth routine, earning a near-perfect score of 39.
However, after making their way upstairs for a fun chat with Claudia, Vito was left red-faced after getting her name wrong.
"You're called team aubergine, I'm nervous but tell me why" asked Claudia.
Which Vito responded with: "So Tess," before Ellie quickly corrected him, saying: "Claudia!"
Realising his mistake, Vito hid in Ellie's arms as everyone else laughed.
Claudia brushed it off, saying: "No, no, I'll take it!" She added: "I love it," as Vito cringed with embarrassment.
Vito later composed himself and explained that their team name is aubergine because Ellie didn't like them until he cooked her a big plate of them.
Sadly, Adam Thomas and his dance partner Luba Mushtuk found themselves in the bottom two after the public vote. They had to compete against Angela Rippon and Kai Widdrington for their place in the competition.
Adam, known for his role in Emmerdale, scored 27 points from the judges on Saturday night's performance but still ended up at the bottom of the leaderboard. Despite giving it his all in his second dance-off of the series, he couldn't convince the judges to keep him in the competition. They unanimously decided to save Angela and Kai instead.
Luba was visibly emotional as she spoke to the hosts, tears welling up in her eyes. Adam also shared his feelings about his time on the show.
"Seven incredible weeks what a journey its been," he told Tess. He added: "I thought I'd be leaving in week two and I've got this far."
Strictly fans were heartbroken to see Adam leave the competition. Over on X, previously known as Twitter, one viewer wrote: "Oh no Adam, was hoping he would be in longer." Another said: "Sad to see Adam go!"
