Thomas Skinner was the first to bid farewell to this year's Strictly Come Dancing series. The ex-Apprentice contestant and his professional partner, Amy Dowden, were shown the exit by the judges during Sunday's results show. ‌

Despite their salsa performance to Dizzee Rascal's Bonkers, it failed to win over judges Shirley Ballas , Anton Du Beke, and Craig Revel Horwood, who all chose to save Chris Robshaw instead. ‌

Even though he was the first to depart, Thomas expressed that he had a "great fun" and praised Amy as being in a "different class." ‌
