Contestants Fleur East and Ben Haenow will battle it out for victory after pug-loving Andrea Faustini was voted out last night despite impressing viewers and judges each week.

The Italian singer had to perform without his mentor Mel B who was too unwell to attend the show and host Dermot O'Leary said she was "absolutely gutted" to be absent.

It is not yet known whether the former Spice Girl will be fit for this evening's final, but reports that she is in a high dependency unit in hospital suggest it's unlikely.
