Former political journalist John Sergeant is pulling out of Strictly Come Dancing.
The 64-year-old has received strong support from the public despite constant criticism from the judges.
Sergeant said in a statement: "The trouble is that there is now a real danger that I might win the competition. Even for me that would be a joke too far."
