All together they have had six wins.

Although many fans were over the moon for Giovanni and Rose, some people took issue and wanted to see other stars win a performance.

One person said on Facebook: “Fantastic as it is, it would be nice if someone else won occasionally!”

Another wrote: “Someone else needs to win as well. It’s not just them.”

A third added over on Instagram: “Oh well… I hope John [Whaite] and Johannes [Radebe] will win at least one show.

“But I think these two will win all of them annoyingly.”

However, the criticism was outweighed by the positive comments from fans of Giovanni and Rose.

One person gushed: “These two are the dream couple!!

“Someone please give them their own show! They’d be incredible.”

Another said: “Wow. That’s fantastic. Must be hard for the rest but the audience vote for them and they’re both very popular and it’s recognition for what they’ve done so far for the deaf community.

“Well done to Rose and Giovanni.”

A third commented: “They’re sweeping the board… their story is unique like no other Strictly partnership.”
