Himself 4.3k viewing now Saturday Kitchen guest has no regrets over ‘inappropriate’ outfit 855 viewing now BBC executives sacked Graziano after members of production presented bosses with video of the pro dancer ‘hitting and kicking’ Love Island star Zara during training last Autumn. But there have been accusations of a massive cover-up by the BBC over claims crew members complained about Graziano’s behaviour during the series but no action was taken. When a group of Strictly production staff witnessed the way Graziano treated Zara in last year’s series, they reported their concerns to their superiors. But, instead of sacking him, senior execs ignored their worries and have Graziano ‘quiet warnings’. It was only when staff backed up their allegations with video evidence last week – including a clip of Graziano hitting Zara – that bosses were galvanised into action and sacked him. But this was nine months after they had first raised the alarm. One BBC insider told the Mail’s Katie Hind: ‘There is absolutely no doubt that those very high up on Strictly, and wider at the BBC, knew about Graziano’s behaviour – but they allowed him still to appear on screen.’ Read More AMANDA PLATELL: More heads must roll on Strictly over what seems to be a sordid cover-up article image The BBC’s official response was: ‘While we would never comment on individual cases, it is well known that the BBC has established robust duty of care procedures and if issues are raised we will always take them seriously and act swiftly as appropriate.’ But Strictly sources told the Mail they believe there was a ‘cover-up’ of Graziano’s behaviour, which ‘bosses hoped would save fan-favourite Di Prima from being ousted’. Advertisement Zara herself admitted in her statement shared on Tuesday that she was too worried about coming forward to complain about Graziano’s behaviour, in a sign that she too didn’t want to tarnish the show’s wholesome reputation as well as her own career prospects.

With news this week that a third professional dancer – who is no longer on the show – is also part of the probe into the BBC series, insiders have told The Sun that it is ‘becoming clear is that there appears to be a more widespread issue over the conduct of some of the professionals in training.’ ‘The more people who come forward, the clearer the picture is becoming.’ And all this is threatening the show’s major 20th anniversary series. By now Stefania Aleksander, the show’s long-serving booker, has usually signed up at least six celebrities, whose names inevitably find their way into the public domain. This time last year – Zara, Angela Rippon and Angela Scanlon had already signed up for the show. Finalist Layton Williams had also agreed to appear and Les Dennis was on the verge of doing so, with all of those names leaked to the public. This time round though there has been no leaks suggesting a crisis at the earliest stage of the series.

Advertisement ‘But word has got around that it isn’t exactly a walk in the park, so getting them has a been a lot more challenging.’ The show, according to inside sources, is in ‘meltdown’ and the upper echelons of both Strictly and the wider BBC have been locked in meetings over the weekend as they attempt to work out how they can survive the scandal. One said: ‘There have been many conversations about how this is dealt with but the immediate problem is this year’s cast… There has been lots of swearing and frustration.’ Executives at the BBC are said to be ‘deeply worried’ that the fans will stop watching as scandal continues to surround their their flagship show. Advertisement ‘The last nine months have been a disaster,’ says a well-informed source. ‘With no idea where it is going to end, the anxiety amongst the upper echelons of the BBC is through the roof.’ 26 shares 24 comments Recommended by Do You Know How Much Do Nurses Get Paid in the USA?
