Strictly Come Dancing viewers were delighted to see Hamza Yassin secure a place in the series finale next weekend.
The wildlife photographer, who lives in Ardnamurchan, stunned viewers on Sunday night taking to the stage in a patriotic kilt to dance the Charleston to Paolo Nutini - Pencil Full of Lead. The 32-year-old has become a fan favourite to take home the Glitterball trophy, and is gaining more fans by the day.
The BBC cameraman has won viewers over by bearing all his emotions on Strictly, as he broke down in tears again on Monday night. While speaking to host Claudia Winkleman, Hamza was overcome with emotions: "It is a whirlwind of a journey.
"Never, ever, ever did I ever think I would be in the final. Week one, I just thought go out there and have fun. Week two is when people get voted off - I was getting ready to hear my name. It has been such a journey. An incredible journey. A phenomenal journey."
Turning to his pro partner, he said: "Jowita, you have been my mast throughout this journey. Showing me where to go, keeping me together, I have had such a wonderful time and I can't thank you enough. I promise you, you are amazing."
Taking to Twitter after the results aired, viewers couldn't hide their delight at Hamza making the finals. One wrote: "Hamza is the only male celebrity left in the @bbcstrictly final. You’ve got this @HamzaYassin3 and #Jowita, no contest. Hope you do that tropical dance with all the lifts again in the final, that was outstanding! #SCD #Strictly "
