After 13 weeks, the BBC dancing competition came to an end on Saturday. Wildlife cameraman Hamza Yassin was a popular favourite throughout the series and was awarded the Glitterball after being named the champion. However, several fans were unimpressed with the final show and requested that the structure be changed.
Strictly Come Dancing has named wildlife cameraman Hamza Yassin the winner of its 20th series. During the last program, all four couples had to perform three distinct routines, one picked by the judges, one picked by themselves, and a show dance.
With several celebrities obtaining flawless ratings from the four judges, the competition was fierce, with only five points separating the first and last spots on the list. However, despite staying a fan favourite throughout the season, Hamza and his pro partner Jowita were the ultimate victors after the public vote.
What were fans' thoughts?
Several viewers were ‘underwhelmed’ with the ending, and many rushed to social media to express their disappointment.
