Strictly Come Dancing will broadcast its hotly anticipated final this weekend, and the show have revealed what the finalists will be performing in the last show of the series.
However, some fans have said they’re annoyed that the famous faces have been allowed to choose a Couple’s Choice number as one of their final routines.
Claiming some celebrities have taken the “easy route,” an array of viewers have urged the show to change the rules.
They took to Twitter to air their rage, as one wrote: “Having two couple choices in the final is just a cop-out tbh, it’s an easy way to get more points. You are meant to be in the final demonstrating actual ballroom and Latin technique not taking the easy route for more points.”

Another penned: “This just feels wrong. Couple’s choice shouldn’t be an option. One Latin, one ballroom – their choice and the judges – and a show dance. Simples.”
“You shouldn’t be allowed to do couple’s choice in the final,” another tweeted.
A fourth typed: “So two of the four couples in the strictly final are doing their ‘couple’s choice’ as their favourite dance! So that’s like two show dances then, and only one dance where they need to demonstrate specific technique!”

“Please can this be the last series that we have Couple’s Choice?”, pleaded another.
Others didn’t mind Couple’s Choice being an option, as one wrote: “Lots of comments about the inclusion of Couples Choice in the final. But I think after the year we’ve had, the more joyous the final is, the better. I cannot wait to see Bill and Oti’s street/commercial routine again.”
Another added: “They are ALL wonderful. Looking forward to seeing all of them dancing on Saturday night, regardless of what style of dance or who wins.
“We are grateful to everyone involved in the show for bringing our Saturday nights alive through these difficult months.”
“Brilliant choices! Cannot wait!”, remarked a third.
