Angela Scanlon bid a very emotional goodbye to Strictly Come Dancing this week.
Yes, she was eliminated after ending up in the bottom two against West End star Layton Williams.
She and her professional partner danced their hearts out with a Cha Cha to I Will Survive by Gloria Gaynor.
However, it wasn’t enough to send them through to the next round, which means they just missed out on the quarter-final.

Angela, who has been killing it week to week, shared her disappointment at leaving the show.
“It’s been honestly incredible, I’m gutted, really gutted that it’s finished now, but it has been the most wonderful experience,” she confessed.
“I have made the best friend in this man [Carlos]. We have had so much fun, he is such an incredible guy. He has supported me and picked me up and made me laugh so much.
“I don’t know what to say, it’s been magical honestly, all of those people up there! My husband at home, my two little girls and all my friends.”
Judge Anton Du Beke confessed at the judging: “I don’t think either couple danced as well as they can. It was the closest dance-off we’ve had in the series so far.
“This is the only thing, I saw an error from one of the couples, so I’m going to vote to keep in to the quarter-finals, Layton and Nikita.”
However, head judge Shirley Ballas opted for Angela saying: “Well important for me always when it comes to Ballroom and Latin is the character of the dance, that it’s true to the dance, timing and quality and I would have voted for Angela and Carlos.”
Unfortunately, Craig Revel Horwood and Motsi Mabuse also voted for Layton, sending our Angela home.
