"To the audience, support has been massive over the last couple of years so each and every one of you, thank you so much for reaching out," Andy continued.

Andy then paid tribute to his good mate and co-host Jock, "Because it's the last season that we were doing the dance together.

"It's always emotional talking about him but I know he'll be up there having a Whisky for us so you guys do it as well."
