"I've always wanted to dip into acting, so I'd like to try and explore that." Dianne and Bobby made the final but missed out on the Glitterball Trophy to winners Ellie Leach and Vito Coppola. Afterwards, former hairdresser Dianne praised the BBC EastEnders star.

"i used to be so obsessed with winning a sparkly trophy constantly thinking about that moment and what it would feel like ! but what i have realised dancing with this wonderful human is that the win and the sparkle is everywhere if you want it to be. last night bobby and i danced with so much joy passion and emotion that my heart was bursting with happiness and pride and there was our win ! bobbys only competition in this show was himself he wanted to become a better dancer and a better professional and to help him achieve both those goals makes me a proud teacher," Dianne typed.

She added: "i am so grateful that i was the lucky one to be partnered with bobs and i am so excited for his bright future ahead he is not just a real talent but a really lovely soul . thanks for making me enjoy my dancing like i was a little girl again no fear no anxiety just love and passion for what i am able to do."
