The Strictly Come Dancing dream is over for Tilly Ramsay and her partner Nikita Kuzmin.
In tonight's (November 28) show, the duo were plonked in the dance-off against Rhys Stephenson and Nancy Xu, who won over the judges in unanimous fashion with their Waltz in the end.
When co-presenter Tess Daly opened up the floor for 19-year-old Tilly to share her reaction, she said: "I'd just like to say a massive thank you to everyone who has made this an amazing, positive journey for me. From everyone here to backstage, wardrobe, make-up and camera crew. It's just been the most extraordinary time.
"I found out something about myself that I didn't know I could do, I didn't know I could dance and have fun like this. So a massive thank you and, obviously, a huge thank you to Nikita who has guided me out of my shell and has just made this the most amazing experience."
Further extending her thanks towards Nikita, Tilly continued: "It's just been amazing. I really meant it when I said I made a best friend for life. You've just been incredible.
"Thank you for the best couple of weeks."
Soon after, this sentiment was echoed by Nikita himself, who said: "I'm the most emotional person so I hope I don't cry. I'm just grateful for everything, for the whole Strictly team, for the production team, for the costume, for the make-up, for everything.
"Thank you guys, thank you to the professionals and cast, and a huge, huge thank you to Tilly."
Roll on the quarter finals.
