Thunderbirds are gone!

TV host Ross and Jowita's paso nosedives

NOT even F.A.B. makeup and styling could cover the cracks in Ross King’s paso doble mission as he became the second celebrity voted off Strictly Come Dancing.

The TV host and his pro partner Jowita Przystal’s' Thunderbirds routine failed to impress the judges and viewers in Movie Week.

Left dangling like the Tracy family puppets on a string, they crashed out of the BBC show after a dance-off against EastEnders star Balvinder Sopal and Julian Caillon.

Quizzed by Tess Daly about his Strictly experience, Ross, 63, fought back tears and said: “I have loved every single minute of it.

“I want to thank everyone here in this room, backstage, the judges, the crew — every single person has made me so, so welcome.

“And I want to thank a very special lady who has been with me through it all and has been absolutely everything.”
