00:00You have been our highest-scoring male celebrity, so many records broken, how much have you enjoyed your experience?
00:08It's been like, you know, more than I could have ever wished for.
00:12If someone had said that I'd have done 11 weeks on the show at the beginning, I'd have been over the moon and I'd have snapped the hand off.
00:18So, thank you to the full show, to everyone for having such a space where people can be themselves, grow, learn, express themselves.
00:30Yeah, it's been incredible and it'll be a memory that I'll have for the rest of my life.
00:34And I think it's all down to you.
00:39You've literally given me absolutely everything I could have wished for as a friend, as a teacher and, yeah, I couldn't imagine it without anybody else, so thank you very much.
00:51Katia, I can see you're so emotional. How much have you loved dancing with Lewis?
00:57I think you have created so many moments for Strictly Come Dancing that will be in history books and you will be remembered not just as one, if not the best male celebrity we have ever had on a show, but also you'll be remembered.
01:16I really hope Lewis Cope will be remembered for an incredible person you are, that kind and genuine people still exist.
01:26And what a gentleman you are and so humble and so kind and I'm so glad that we had a chance to see you and showcase your talent and what beautiful person you are to the world.
01:41So, thank you.
01:44Lewis, you've had the whole apartment pool behind you, including those 13 coats.
01:50How much is that support meant to you?
01:54It's everything, isn't it? I mean, what is life without people?
01:57And, um, this shows kind of, I've seen how it's brought people together, not just in my family, but like, you know, you, it seems to lift people up.
02:06And it's definitely brought, you know, my family four generations together every Saturday night.
02:11My nana daughter who's sitting there smiling all the time and, you know, people, young boys who thought that, you know, dancing wasn't accessible for them or whatever, have started dancing now and send us videos and stuff like that.
02:24And, you know, if you can change one person's life like that, then that's enough.
