Felicity Kendal has admitted that she was "mortified" to be in the bottom two on Strictly Come Dancing on Sunday.



The Good Life actress survived the chop at the weekend, but found herself in danger alongside soap star Tina O'Brien.

Speaking on It Takes Two, she said: "I was more desperately unhappy than shocked. I knew that we would get there one day and I knew it could be this week or next week. But I was a little blase and I have to say I was absolutely devastated.

"I tried not to show it, but I was mortified, I hated it!"

She continued: "Nothing quite prepares you for how emotional it will be when you get there. It actually is devastating. I don't know why. It is extraordinary. It really is your whole life when you are living this journey. It takes over. I think I was particularly sad because I didn't do my best. I don't mind going out because I'm not as good as other people, but I hate going out not being as good as I can be."

Her pro partner Vincent Simone joked: "I was devastated. I feel upset, because being as gorgeous as I am, I thought all the older women would vote for me."
