:16:00. > :16:07.not holding back. The it was extraordinary. That is a fabulous
:16:07. > :16:17.face. You did not give Denise and James 10. The other three did. You
:16:17. > :16:19.

:20:43. > :20:50.
:20:50. > :20:54.Dani, you are through to the final next Saturday. Denise has
:20:55. > :21:00.consistently impressed. You said on Saturday that the final would not
:21:00. > :21:05.be proper if she was not there. What will she need to do to win the
:21:05. > :21:13.dance-off? She would just need to perform as she did on Saturday. The
:21:13. > :21:20.tango was fantastic. She has just got to repeat it. Claudia.

:32:35. > :32:39.the judges Cordier our pupils champion and you have been one of
:32:39. > :32:49.the most popular contestants we have ever had on Strictly. How has
:32:49. > :32:49.
:32:49. > :32:55.it been for you? It has been the The costumes, make-up, everyone
:32:55. > :32:59.backstage have been beyond belief. There is one person, that is Robin
:32:59. > :33:04.Windsor and he has just been amazing. What you do not all know
:33:04. > :33:11.is having me as a partner is a really, really tough ask. Every
:33:11. > :33:19.week, a week in, week out, he has done it. He has done everything. I
:33:19. > :33:23.L every inch of Strictly to Robin. He is just amazing. We know you

:33:33. > :33:38.what would you like to say? From day one, this whole experience has
:33:38. > :33:46.been amazing. Lizo has shown you do not have to be a certain size to
:33:46. > :33:49.dance and she has inspired so many people. We have had an amazing
:33:49. > :33:56.three months watching you in the competition. Let's have a look at
:33:56. > :34:01.your story. The best thing for me is people not judging a book by
:34:02. > :34:06.their cover. They look at me and thought, here we go, here is the
:34:06. > :34:10.comedy one. But my feet and hands have done the right thing. When I
:34:10. > :34:15.was chosen, I was so nervous that I would never get lifted and that
:34:15. > :34:25.feeling at Wembley, to think there were 6,000 people there screaming
:34:25. > :34:26.
:34:26. > :34:31.for me. Nothing in life will never match that. I cannot imagine being
:34:31. > :34:38.in Strictly and not dancing with Robin. I have found my Big Brother
:34:38. > :34:42.but I have always wanted and I know how lucky I am. I am so proud that
:34:42. > :34:49.I went out there and I have proven to everyone that no matter what
:34:49. > :34:59.size you are, you can dance. can dance. It is something very
:34:59. > :35:08.special. To say I have been a part of it is amazing.
:35:08. > :35:13.Incredible. An incredible story. Thank you, Lisa for your joy. Can
:35:13. > :35:20.you do one last chance for us. Well done. We are going to miss them as
:35:20. > :35:25.they leave just one week before the final. It is a sad farewell. You
:35:25. > :35:31.can hear them jacked is only about their whole strip experience on
:35:31. > :35:40.Monday for It Takes Two. -- you can hear them talk to Zoe on It Takes
:35:40. > :35:45.I want to thank Claudia for being my fantastic partner in crime.
:35:45. > :35:50.Thank you for making it so much fun. Join breeze and me next week for
:35:50. > :35:56.the Grand Final as Strictly Come Dancing 2012 will be an explosive
