The wait is finally over for fans of Strictly Come Dancing as the final of the BBC dancing show takes place tonight.
Scots are backing wildlife expert Hamza Yassin to take the coveted glitterball trophy, with the 32-year-old wowing judges and viewers at home week after week with his impressive footwork.
Hamza and partner Jowita Przystal waltzed their way to the final with an incredible Scottish-themed Charleston last weekend which was performed to the sound of Paolo Nutini's Pencil Full Of Lead.
Hamza, who moved to the Ardnamurchan peninsula to hone his skills as a cameraman when he finished uni 13 years ago, will face Helen Skelton, Fleur East, Molly Rainford and their partners on the BBC dance floor tonight.
Bookies have consistently placed him as favourite to win for the past few weeks, with the latest prediction from online betting guide OLBG predicting at 8/15.
The Sudan-born star has worked as a cameraman on Countryfile and Animal Park, as well as a presenter on Scottish wildlife programmes including Channel 4’s Scotland: My Life in the Wild but has been tipped for big things in the future after Strictly, with some fans calling for him to be given his own BBC nature show in the future.
Talking to the Record this week about his gratitude to Scots for supporting him so far, Hamza said: “I was born in Africa, raised there a little bit, but my newfound love is Scotland and I want to say thank you to all the Scottish people voting and helping me through and I hope that I do you guys proud this weekend.”
We know without doubt however the performance goes, Hamza will do us proud.
