Tim Wonnacott has been eliminated from ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ tonight (19.10.14).
The antiques expert, 64, has become the latest celebrity to be given the boot from the Ballroom and Latin competition after he and his professional partner Natalie Lowe lost the dance-off against Mark Wright.
The ‘Bargain Hunt’ host and his stunning partner performed their Paso Doble to ‘Simply the Best’ by Tina Turner but failed to wow the judges with the aggressive routine as Len Goodman, Darcey Bussell, Bruno Tonioli and Craig Revel Horwood unanimously chose to save the reality TV star and his partner Karen Hauer.
Speaking after the result, Tim said: "It’s a great treat to be on a programme like ‘Strictly.’ For an old geezer like me, who comes along in his 64th year and he’s slightly portly, and he thinks he’s a bit over the hill, this last month, with this delightful teacher, has taken me to a very special place.
"I am fitter, I am a better person than I was a month ago as a result of this experience and I cannot tell you what a wonderful thing this whole programme is so I commend you all and thank you.
"I would like to say what a treat it’s been. Thank-you very much, and thank-you to my lovely Nat."
‘Strictly Come Dancing’ will continue next Saturday at 6:30pm on BBC One.
