Vicky Pattison and Kai Widdrington are voted off Strictly Come Dancing on November 16, 2025 / BBC
Vicky Pattison and her partner Kai Widdrington have been voted off Strictly Come Dancing, missing out on a place in Blackpool Week.
The pair were joint bottom of the judges’ leaderboard with Balvinder Singh and Julian Caillon – and both couples ended up in the dance-off too following the viewer vote.
The judges unanimously chose to save Balvinder and Julian, marking the fourth time that the EastEnders actress has now been saved from the bottom two.
“It was so lovely while it lasted, and I’ve had the nicest time,” said Pattison, known for appearing on Geordie Shore.
“I knew this week was a difficult one for me, and I tried my hardest as I have every week. Listen, I didn’t think I’d get past week one.
“And I’m really honoured to have shared this experience with so many amazing people. Mostly with this fella [Kai] right here. I don’t want to sound too cheesy but [to Kai] you’ve been the best partner a girl can ask for.
“I’m so sorry I didn’t get you to Blackpool but I feel like I’ve won just by having you as my partner and I’m so grateful.”
Widdrington replied: “Oh, goodness me. Where do I start? You [to Vicky] are everything that this series is about. Strong, confident, independent – and all that I can say is, I have loved every single second.
“I’m going to be gutted not coming to Blackpool with you on Monday. But I just want you to know that I feel like I have also won getting you as my partner, and you will live on in Strictly history forever.”
Strictly‘s Blackpool Week airs next Saturday from 6.35pm on BBC One.
