Judy Murray has become the seventh celebrity to leave ‘Strictly Come Dancing’.
The tennis coach and mother of Andy Murray left the BBC programme after she and Anton du Beke lost the dance-off against ‘Casualty’ actress Sunetra Sarker and Brendan Cole in the show’s Blackpool special.
Judy, 55, and her professional partner found themselves at the bottom of the leaderboard on Saturday night (15.11.14), after scoring 24 points for their Viennese Waltz to ‘Let’s Go Fly a Kite’ from ‘Mary Poppins’.
But speaking her elimination was confirmed, Judy said she thoroughly enjoyed her time on the show, saying: "I was starting to think I was absolutely hopeless but I know I am still not very good! Anton has treated everything with the most incredible sense of humour.
"He is great fun to be around and has made my ‘Strictly’ experience very, very special."
Anton replied: "I am so excited and thrilled about the whole experience for Judy as she is such a big fan of the show, and the fun that we have had has purely been because of Judy’s great sense of humour.
"She is such a warm spirit and character and personality and is such a great sport with such enthusiasm, which made the whole thing enormous fun."
