Contestant Nikita Kanda eliminated from ‘Strictly Come Dancing’: “I’ve had the best time”

BBC Asian Network Breakfast Show host Nikita Kanda has today been eliminated from ‘Strictly Come Dancing’.

The 28 year-old left the BBC show with her professional partner Gorka Márquez after their performance on Saturday’s Movie Night theme.

Kanda said: “I’ve had the best time and I love all my Strictly family, I’m going to miss you all. This has been a dream come true, I’m so grateful.”

Gorka added: “I am beyond proud of her, for someone that doesn’t have any dance experience or performance experience to come on this show and dance in front of millions of people – for three weeks, I think it’s incredible.

“You should be very proud of yourself, you have never let me down and I am very proud of you.

“I’ve never laughed so much in three weeks than I did with you!”
