The first six dancers - Zip, Knickerbocker Glory, Beetroot, Llama, Viper and Scarecrow - took to the stage to show off their best moves.

The panel narrowed down their three least favourite performances to Viper, Beetroot and Knickerbocker.

Many were left confused that the presenter managed to lose his place in a DANCING competition despite doing it for a living.

Others thought that Beetroot - who they speculate could be either Myleene Klass, Kym Marsh or Suzanne Shaw - didn't deserve a place because of her lack of moving on the stage.

They took to Twitter to share their outrage.

One wrote: "What the heck. viper was the only one out of those three who actually danced well.... beet should have gone #MaskedDancer."

Another said: "I can’t believe Viper was voted off the #MaskedDancerUK. he was brilliant - how did the ACTUAL dancer go?! He should have definitely stayed (beetroot should have gone, in my opinion). #MaskedDancer#maskedsingeruk#itv."

A fourth said: "Seriously Beetroot Over Viper aka Jordan Banjo. I am very disappointed with the panels choice #MaskedDancerUK #maskeddancer #itv."

A fifth tweeted: "Beetroot didn’t even dance ! ! #themaskeddancer#MaskedDancerUK#maskeddancer."

He joked: "They don't know. The only one who knows is Ash and I was the first to be kicked out so he might sack me."
