A BBC spokesperson said: “After an incident with a prop at the beginning of Fleur and Vito’s dance-off performance, the decision was made to halt proceedings to check they were not injured.

James Jordan defends comments about wife's weight gain
The Strictly star previously made comments about his wife that raised a few eyebrows, but he stands by what he said.
He had said he "preferred" his wife, Ola, when her figure was smaller.
He said: "Hang on one second, you're not allowed to be honest today in this world.
"There's no man, let me tell you ladies out there, there's no man in the world who will say, 'Oh no, I much prefer my wife being much bigger and heavier'. There's no man, they don't exist."
Speaking to the , James added: "They might tell you, 'Oh you look lovely darling' but would they prefer you slimmer? Yes they would. That's just a fact, I'm just telling you that every sin."
Ola And James Jordan During The Launch Show For Strictly Come Dancing At BBC Television Centre, Wood Lane, White City. Hamza's incredible locks cause 'concern' it could 'interfere' with dancing
Dr Jill Rose Jacobs began: "This may be a note for the hair and makeup team but Hamza's long locks are a concern."
The television presenter has an incredible head of long dread locks, that he hasn't cut for around 17 years.
Speaking on behalf of Dr Jill Rose Jacobs began: "I would recommend that Hamza should tuck his hair inside his costume or wear it in a tightly bound man-bun.
"Dancers most commonly wear their hair pulled into tight buns and styles that are close to the head, not for beauty, but for safety.
"Having loose hair may interfere with your costume or obscure your vision following a quick turn."
Helen Skelton explains why she had 'face like thunder' over marriage discussion
The Strictly star spoke about why she looked unimpressed when her dance partner mentioned her marriage situation.
Skelton told The Sun in a new interview: “Let’s leave that in the past, shall we?” adding: “What I love about Gorka is that he has my very best interests at heart, and we are genuinely very good friends. But sometimes, maybe, we need to talk about what he’s allowed to say publicly.”
Cheeky flirt
Did you see Fleur have a cheeky flirt with Anton?
He told her after her epic waltz: "There's one or two things that need adjusting down below."
Fleur said: "Are you still talking about the dance?"
