Danny John-Jules says he should’ve expressed his “gratitude” to his Strictly Come Dancing partner Amy Dowden “more often”.
The Red Dwarf star and the pro dancer were eliminated from the programme on Sunday night after losing out in a dance-off against Graeme Swann and Oti Mabuse, and he has praised Amy for “inspiring” him throughout the series and teaching him numerous moves.

Danny’s wife Petula Langlais had earlier shot to her mother-in-law’s defence, too.
She tweeted James saying: “Out of order! Attacking an elderly woman who has done nothing to you! You know nothing about our personal lives! That is below the belt!!! Love and light to you (sic)”
James then replied: “I just stated facts… said what everyone was thinking.
“Not attacking anyone.
“She did look miserable when the camera was on her, but I’m sure she is a lovely lady.
“No malice intended. But everyone gets offended over everything nowadays. [sic]”
