RTE Dancing With The Stars' Carl Mullan admits his surprise at making it to the final

Carl Mullan has admitted he never thought he would make the final of Dancing With The Stars.

The 2FM Breakfast host had previously said that he was worried he would be the ‘clown’ on the show this year, however he reached the final four of this weekend’s final with his pro dance partner Emily Barker. Carl said he realised that "the ball was always in his court" as to how he came across to people on telly.

He told the Irish Mirror: “100 per cent. I categorically did not think that I would make the final but the further we got into it, the more that I realised the ball lay in my court with that. Like this show is really you get out of it what you put into it and the further we went along, like Emily from week one was saying, ‘I’m telling you, you have what it takes to get to the final’. But it took me a few weeks to believe her realistically and it was the further we went on and your confidence grows a little bit.”
