Max and Dianne had landed second from bottom after the judges' scores following their American Smooth to It Had to Be You by Harry Connick Jr, but were lauded last week for their Simpsons-themed Couple's Choice routine.
Maisie and Gorka, meanwhile, were fifth on the leaderboard after their Cha Cha to Girls Just Want to Have Fun by Cyndi Lauper.

Craig Revel Horwood chose to save Maisie and Gorka.

Anton Du Beke agreed, saying: "Well, I have to say it's so close.
"They were both immaculate through that dance. It literally was just the smallest timing. For me, I'm going to have to save Maisie and Gorka."
Head judge Shirley Ballas didn't need to cast a deciding vote but said that she would have saved Max and Dianne.
When asked by co-host Tess Daly about his time on the show, Max said: "I've loved it. It's all down to Dianne, she's been literally amazing.

"For me to get through 90 seconds of a dance for four weeks now is a credit to her, she's just unbelievable."
Dianne also had kind words for her 2020 partner, saying: "I think Max has done an absolutely amazing job.
"He has done four incredible dances and I know how nervous you get, but you've come out here every week… you've done me more than proud - so well done."
