Angela Scanlon breaks down in floods of tears on Strictly: It Takes Two after shock dance off exit
ANGELA Scanlon broke down in floods of tears on Strictly: It Takes Two following her shock axing.
The Irish TV presenter was brutally voted off the BBC dancing competition on Sunday night.
She found herself in the dreaded dance-off alongside Sex Education’s Layton Williams.
Ultimately the judges all voted to save Layton, sending the redhead and her partner Carlos Gu home.
And in her first TV interview since being eliminated, Angela fought back tears.
She started to become emotional as Fleur East showed the star her best bits from the past two months.
Following the VT, Angela struggled to get her words out, as she said: “There’s been a few standout moments.
“I feel really grateful for them. In life, in this glorious madness you can have a steady road, either middle of the road and have quite a smooth journey.
“I’ve always felt like those ups and downs are better for you to feel things deeply, whether that’s right down there or right up there.
“Charleston, week three and top of the leaderboard – this kind of took us totally by surprise and it was so joyful and glorious.”
She added: “The Argentine Tango in Blackpool, for me, which is possibly why this [her elimination] stings so much to come a week later.”
Her partner Carlos then hugged Angela and she wiped away her tears.
It comes after the presenter revealed she can’t stop crying since her elimination.
Strictly Come Dancing continues on BBC One and iPlayer.
