Tamara's Perfect 10 - A First For Strictly Come Dancing

Tamara Dey and her professional dancing partner Brandon Eilers became the first couple in the history of Strictly Come Dancing SA to earn four perfect scores from the judges, in Saturday night's final four showdown.

In a light-hearted episode hosted by Mark Banks, the bizarre stand-in for regular host Ian von Memerty, the remaining four couples each performed two dances.

Dey and Eilers first danced the Quick Step, scoring 33 out of 40 - which put them in first place after the first round of dances.

But it was the second dance - a creative rendition of the Cha Cha - that drew perfect 10s from all judges, Tyrone Watkins included.

After two rounds Dey and Eilers had 73 points out of a possible 80, which put them 16 points clear of second-placed couple Freedom Hadebe and Mary Martin.

Jeannie D and partner Anthony Krotz were third, with Riaan Venter and Hayley Hammond bringing up the rear.

In the end it was Jeannie who was sent home, leaving the final three to battle it out in the semifinals next week.

Dey must surely be favourite to win the competition now. How do you beat a perfect score?
