Ahead of the final on Saturday, Helen and Gorka went live on Instagram and squeezed in a chat with fans during a dance rehearsal break.
Helen started off by asking Gorka how he felt about the final, Gorka admitted that he felt “broken”. Dance partner Helen explained that they will be performing three routines on Saturday night.
She added: “We have three very fast dances so that is why we are physically broken and I think we are quite emotional too.”
Gorka praised his dance partner and said: “I think you deserve to be in the final because you have worked so hard and just to see how much you have grown each week is just incredible and I’m very grateful that we are in the final.”
When asked what they would do with the Glitterball if they won, the pair revealed that their children wanted to take it off their hands and keep it for themselves.
However Helen admitted: “I do feel like we sort have won a bit already - if we don’t actually get the glitterball we have got a massive victory already is what I mean.”
Gorka jumped in: “Getting into the final is a privilege and we got to do the whole Strictly experience but it would be a cherry on top if we finished with the trophy.”

Just before heading off one fan asked if he could have Gorka’s hat if they won the BBC show however Gorka had a better offer as he revealed: “I am going to say something, If I win, I will compromise myself to travel to Penrith for one day and do dance lessons in the day at the local place we rehearsed for all the people who are there for free because I would love to share my passion.”
Gorka revealed that he previously spoke to Helen about his free dance lesson plan as she said: “You should come because he is an excellent teacher.” Gorka added: “And you can bring the coffees.”
