Scandal-ridden Strictly WINS Best Talent Show at NTAs despite ten months of lurid bullying and abuse allegations
STRICTLY Come Dancing won the NTA Talent Show category for the ninth year in a row last night.
Its victory shows that the public still backs the programme despite ten months of allegations of inappropriate behaviour behind the scenes.
However, Strictly host Claudia Winkleman failed to pass on her thanks to the show’s professionals when picking up the gong.
Speaking to the audience at London’s O2 Arena, Claudia said: “We just want to say a massive thank you to the most wonderful team who make Strictly, the brilliant celebrities who take part – thank you so much.
“Thank you to the BBC and BBC Studios. This means everything, we’re so grateful.”
Claudia, who presents Strictly alongside Tess Daly, didn’t mention the dancers – but the win is the perfect boost for the BBC One show, which is marking its 20th anniversary this year — and launching a new series on Saturday.
