Alastair's six steps too far
Ballet dancing star Alastair Postlethwaite will not be in the running to be crowned the winner of BBC's So You Think You Can Dance.
Alastair, 28, from Tarleton, was reported to be back in with a chance of the 100,000 prize on tonight's final.
Alastair was primed to replace injured finalist, Robbie White, after he had to leave the competition with a dislocated shoulder.
But it was decided he would have too much to learn and rehearse in too short a space of time.
Alastair will now perform in one of the final routines, along with the other finalists.
Finalist Tommy Franzen said: "We just realised that it was way too much for anyone to learn those six routines. It wasn't fair on him ."
The So You Think You Can Dance final begins this evening at 7.45pm on BBC1.
