Lisa: 'Strictly' final place unbelievable

Lisa Snowdon has admitted that she did not think she would be in tonight's Strictly Come Dancing final.

The television presenter, who endured a tough start to the contest, said that she has experienced every emotion possible on her way to the show's climax.

"I can't believe it. It's phenomenal. It's an amazing feeling," she told Claudia Winkleman on It Takes Two.

Snowdon revealed that she has developed a close bond with dance partner Brendan Cole, saying: "We've experienced everything possible that you can expect in Strictly. It's made me stronger."

Cole said that he has never doubted Snowdon's ability on the dancefloor, telling Winkleman: "I had no question in my mind [that we would reach the final]. The last few weeks those dance-offs have made us so strong."

The professional dancer added that he hopes they can win the Strictly crown, but is just pleased to be involved in the final stages. "Whatever happens, it's going to be a special night," he said.
