I can't tell you how happy I am Chris won. As a blind person I am often tarnished by association with all the negativity that surrounds disability but Chris has done something absolutely incredible, and has done it all while being completely true to himself. He's a shining example of what you can achieve against the odds and his winning Strictly will do an untold amount in raising awareness of the fact that us as blind people still have goals, dreams, capabilities and the ability to achieve anything we set our minds to. Dianne was clearly an incredible teacher and has inspired me to seriously look into learning to dance, not necessarily for the dance itself but as a means of learning visual expression. I just need to find a teacher as good as Dianne!

Dianne's immense talent, determination and kindness paired with Chris' strength and trust made for such a beautiful and emotional season of Strictly.

So pleased to see Dianne and Chris lift the glitter ball. Truly deserving winners. She took teaching of the dances to a new level and brought the best out of Chris. HE may not have been the most perfect dancer in the competition, but he was fearless and proved that anything is possible with hard work and perseverance. It was so special that Dianne lifted the glitter ball with her parents in the audience, especially with everything that Mark went through last year. He was so precious and proud. Joe, I have always been a fan of your work, since you were on Strictly and thank you for sharing your pride in Dianne and Chris. Hope you all have a wonderful rest with Dianne's family, you deserve it. ❤

She’s one of the hardest working people - always giving interviews, spending time with her dance partner, taking time for fans, being a great friend to Vito who came as a new dancer to strictly - she deserved this win more than anyone, and I’m so happy for her.

Watching Chris learn to do something, and do it exceptionally, that he twice turned down because he believed it was impossible... it's been awe inspiring and a joy to watch. That Dianne found a way to make that possible, and allow Chris to be able to develop a talent that might otherwise always have been hidden, in effect starting from scratch week after week after week, never mind being one of the most incredible things I've seen in Strictly, it's one of the most incredible things I've seen in anything.
