Video transcript
LORRAINE KELLY: And look, we know in "Strictly," sometimes it doesn't work, Giovanni. We know sometimes and it didn't work the last time. Are you going to change anything? Are you-- because I know you're a perfectionist.
GIOVANNI PERNICE: And I think--
LORRAINE KELLY: And you just want to win. And I don't blame you for that.
GIOVANNI PERNICE: Well, it's not just about the winning. As I said, sometimes it's worse, sometimes nice. I think it was very shame because as I said in the past, it was a shame because I think with Amanda, we could have gone all the way to the final.
LORRAINE KELLY: You were brilliant.
GIOVANNI PERNICE: Great talent.
LORRAINE KELLY: Amazing.
- Yeah.
LORRAINE KELLY: Just sometimes it's not going to jail. I mean, I guess that must happen. That's the thing.
GIOVANNI PERNICE: But again, you're just there to put these people in a perspective of be the best they can on Saturday night. And you know, Amanda was, as I said, a great, great talent, great dancer. And the judge appreciated what we did.
