TV presenter Les Dennis landed at the bottom of the scoreboard with just 16 points, with BBC Asian Network host Nikita Kanda following on 18 and Love Island's Zara McDermott not far behind with 19 points.

A third echoed: "The standard was unbelievable tonight. What a fantastic first show. I predict big things for Nigel, Angela and Ellie. I think the one at risk of going first will be Nikita (even though I think she seems lovely)."
