While judges were left impressed by their performance, audiences were convinced they spotted a bias towards Layton.
Viewers took to X to share their thoughts, complaining that Motsi is not fairly marking the actor.
One person wrote: "I LOVE Nikita and Layton and they are amazing BUT Motsi never even offers constructive criticism. She's really favoured him throughout and she doesn’t try and hide it."

"Most difficult rumba?" one viewer asked. "What’s Motsi talking about?"
A fourth hit out: "Motsi is so far up Layton's backside."
Someone else agreed: ";Here comes Motsi to blow smoke up his a**e."
The beloved South African judge has been accused of favouritism towards the pair before, when she fought back tears while praising Layton for his Paso Doble.
