BBC Strictly Come Dancing's Ellie Taylor praised for honest response to being quizzed on her Christmas plans

Ellie Taylor has been inundated with responses after sharing a message about being quizzed on her Christmas plans. The Ted Lasso actress recently bowed out of Strictly Come Dancing after landing in the dreaded dance-off with partner Johannes Radebe.

The pair were the ninth couple to be eliminated from the BBC One dance contest which is now just a couple of weeks away from crowning its 2022 winner. Ellie and Johannes missed out on a place in the recent quarter-final, which was also musicals week, when the red light of doom fell on them and Fleur East and Vito Coppola.

After the judges voted to save Hits Radio host Fleur and her Italian dance partner, Strictly co-host Tess Daly asked Ellie whether the competition had been everything she had expected to which she said: “It has and it’s been, I’m going to be a cliche machine now, but it’s been everything and more. I never in a million years expected to be in for this long and to experience it so fully.
