She may have been saved by the public last week but it seems that Nancy Dell'Olio has found herself at the bottom of the Strictly Come Dancing scoreboard once again.
The Italian-American star took to the floor to dance her best with partner Anton du Beke, but her efforts weren't recognised as the pair received a total score of 18.
Wearing a black sheer sequined dress, Nancy looked nervous at times as Anton dragged her across the floor.
Back at the bottom: Nancy Dell'Olio failed to really impress the judges once again as she received the lowest score of 18
But the comments weren't all bad as female judge Alesha Dixon rold her: 'There's something about you Nancy, you were a bit of a ragdoll but I loved it.'
Nasty critic Craig Revel Horwood couldn't help but comment on the technicalities of the dance but finished by saying: 'I think secretly there is talent beneath the surface.'
Trying her best: The Italian-American was described as a 'rag doll' after she let her partner Anton drag her around the floor
'Talent beneath the surface': Nasty judge Craig Revel Horwood didn't have all bad things to say about Nancy's performance
As the couple made their way up the stairs to hear their final score, Anton could be seen saying: 'We were so close,' to which Nancy replied: 'Sorry' hwilst hugging her partner.
But it wasn't all bad scores on tonight's show as McFly drummer, Harry Judd, was the first contestant to receive a score of ten from a judge during the series.
Dancing the Waltz with his partner, Aliona Vilani, Harry looked serious as he glided across the floor with his glamorous partner and received several applauds from the audience throughout his performance.
First ten: Harry Judd received the first single highest score of the series from Alesha Dixon who loved his Waltz
The stars comments started off negatively as head judge Len Goodman told Harry that he was 'distraught.'
'The first half was great but then you messed it up,' he said.
However he was on his own with his opinion as Alesha told him she thought it was 'exquisite' and gave the highest score of the to the young star which contributed to their total number of 35.
'Exquisite': The McFly star managed to capture the romance of the dance as he performed with his partner Aliona Vilani
Feeling happy: Harry looked really pleased as he received a total score of 35
But the majority of total scores tonight seemed to be in their twenties.
First up to dance on tonight's show was Aussie star, Jason Donovan.
Dancing the Pasodoble with Kristina Rihanoff, the 43-year-old actor had decided to embrace all things Spanish but admitted he didn't feel 100% about the routine.
On fire: Jason Donovan wasn't 100% about his routine but did his best to dance well
Wearing a traditional Spanish outfit, Jason danced to a Queen hit but didn't seem entirely confident.
The judges picked up on this with Bruno saying: 'Jason you tried to make a big meal out of this and you got indigestion.'
Alesha agreed by telling the star that it wasn't his best performance which resulted in the couple receiving a total score of 27.
Very Spanish: Jason danced the Pasodoble with his partner Kristina Rihanoff
Not far behind Jason on the scoreboard was Welsh beauty, Alex Jones.
Dancing the Rumba with her partner, James Jordan, The One Show presented admitted that she found it hard to be sexy.
Wearing a navy blue lace and sequined outfit, Alex gave it her best shot as she danced to a version of a Snow Patrol song.
Not feeling sexy: Welsh beauty Alex Jones found it hard to convey her sultry side on tonight's show
The comments weren't terrible but were certainly constructive.
'It was so romantic, but you need to push yourself,' stated Alesha, whilst Bruno told Alex that she looked 'sinfully sexy' but doesn't use her hips to the full extent.
But someone who thought otherwise was Craig.
'Sexless, cold and stiff': Alex seemed upset by Craig's comments whilst her partner James Jordan got annoyed
Telling the couple that it was 'sexless, cold and stiff' welcomed the crowd to boo him and prompted James to say to him 'Well the public liked it,' to which Craig replied: 'Let them decide darling.'
The pair received a total score of 25, but Alex looked disappointed with herself whilst James looked annoyed with the judges.
'We've been in the business a long time too and know more than Craig,' he said.
Next up to perform was comedian Rory Bremner who ended up one point below Alex.
'Cocky rooster': Rory Bremner struggled to dance the Cha Cha Cha with his partner Erin Boag
Trying his best: The Scottish comedian seemed to enjoy himself as he took to the dancefloor
Dancing the Cha Cha Cha with partner Erin Boag, the Scottish star tried his best to show off his sexy side and to interact with the crowd as well as the judges.
'You are like a cocky rooster,' Bruno told him, whilst Craig seemed unimpressed once again.
But someone he had good things to say about was boxer, Audley Harriosn, who took to the dancefloor next.
Dancing the Foxtrot with his partner Natalie Lowe, the 39-year-old looked cool, calm and collected as he glided across the floor.
Taking it all in his stride: Audley Harrison danced the Foxtrot with his partner Natalie Lowe
Craig told the star that he need to make some improvements but also told him: 'I really and truly liked it.'
Len added to this by saying: 'I think the Foxtrot is the hardest dance technically, but you did well.'
The couple received a total score of 25 and Audley told host, Tess Daly, that he is really enjoying the competition.
Another contestant who seemed to be enjoying herself was Lulu.
The singer danced the Samba with her partner Brendan Cole and did her best to wow the panel.
After Brendan revealed his secret of always being voted off the show after dancing the Samab, Lulu vowed to end the curse and it seemed she might have.
Loving it: Lulu wore a floaty red dress to perform the Samba with Brendan Cole
Wearing a short, red floaty dress, she danced to a Stevie Wonder hit and climbed the stairs to interact with the crowd and her fellow contestants.
Alesha picked up on her enthusiasm telling her: 'As soon as you started I could see you were full of energy and full of beans. Good job - well done.'
But Craig disagreed with her stair action saying: 'I don't think you needed that run up the stairs as it just wasted time.'
But as his comment sparked more outrage with Alex's partner James who shouted down 'Whatever' to the panel, Len got annoyed and replied: 'All you have to do it turn up, keep up and shut up!'
Breaking the curse: The singer vowed to make it through to next week even though Brendan has been voted off four times after dancing the Samba
Following Lulu and heading into the thirties on the scoreboard was pop star Holly Valance.
Dancing the Viennese Waltz with Artem Chigvintsev, the sexy star appeared to have nailed the elegance of the dance whilst wearing a pink and silver sequined dress.
Craig told the couple it was a 'little bit bumpy' but added that it was 'gorgeous.'
Alesha loved the performance and told them it was very good which resulted in them receiving a total score of 30.
Pretty in pink: Holly Valance danced the Waltz with Artem Chigvintsev
But the highest score of the night was given to Waterloo Road star Chelsee Healey who took to the floor next with her partner, Pasha Kovalev.
Although the actress had endured a busy week of filming, she appeared to dance the Quick Step very well in her teal halterneck dress and gold shoes.
Top of the game: Chelsee Healey received the highest score on the show of 36
Craig started the comments by saying two words: 'First Class,' which seemed to really excite the star, and when she received a score of 36 she told Tess: 'I'm just enjoying it and loving it.'
Also enjoying herself was ex EastEnders actress, Anita Dobson.
'Enjoying it': Anita Dobson wore a purple dress to dance with her partner Robin Windsor
Taking to the floor with her partner Robin Windsor, the older star wore a purple dress as she was carried around the floor - and her moves were certainly praised.
'The lifts were so daring and you should be really proud of yourself,' Alesha told her.
Len also commented on her specific dance moves saying that her heel turns were done well.
Taking it all in: The actress was pleased with her total score of 32
The pair were given a score of 32 and seemed really pleased with the result, especially after Anita had spent all day worrying about the routine.
Following Anita was footballer, Robbie Savagae, who danced his socks off with partner Ola Jordan.
The audience obviously loved their routine as they gave them a standing ovation with Bruno telling them that 'he had a good time.'
However Craig put a downer on the mood by nitpicking at the technical problems of the dance, but also admitted that he loved the 'character' that the sportsman had showed throughout the dance and the couple were left with a total score of 27.

Last to hit the floor was astrologer Russell Grant who danced the Tango with his partner Flavia Cacace.
Len told Russell that he was 'very endearing,' and whilst the judges agreed that it wasn't the best Tango, they told him that he had made a good effort and he ended the scores by earning a total of 24.
So with Nancy at the bottom once again and Chelsee leading at the top, the scoreboard has changed slightly but as always it's down to the public to decide who will leave the show on Sunday night.
