We're a proud nation." "We're a welcoming nation, but have our idols and our own fan base. This show is about people and fans. We can't compete with that." "Yesterday, we did ," he said. "But unfortunately they gave our score to five other couples. That killed all of our chances ." At least she can go out knowing that her best routine was her last, even if she only did two.
