Well Done Bbc! Giovanni Will Be In Strictly Special

[barry1010]

This is not just good news for Strictly fans, it is the right thing to do.

I'm glad Giovanni accepted the offer, he must have been tempted to tell them to stick it where the sun doesn't shine.

I bet Amanda is apoplectic and raging this morning.

Yawn

[barry1010]

Thanks for your illuminating and fascy contribution, johnk.

[gingejbee]

"Yawn" @08.59. Still tired? Back to bed, then.

[barry1010]

So rude

[wolf63]

Is he the one who has several allegations made against him?

I take it that they were proved to be groundless.

[barry1010]

He is, he was cleared of all major allegations but not 6 minor ones.

[smurfchops]

Wonder if we will ever see Amanda on our screens again?  She seems to have a problem.

[Mozz71]

She has a problem with being shouted at by a dancer on a reality show? Not something that should really effect her acting ability I'd have thought. Just stay away from musicals.

[naomi24]

I've stopped watching Strictly - can't stand the hysteria or the racket - but I'm pleased this has been resolved and that he's back.

[barry1010]

Amanda is toxic and is self-destructive. Nobody will hire her in case a co-actor looks at her the wrong way or says something she doesn't like. 

It will all be in her head. I wouldn't want to work with her

[MargoTester]

Ms Abbinton is still not leaving it go and is now calling the journalist, Amanda Patell," a scheming lying *** bully" for something she wrote. I think what she really wants is a great big compensation payment. Seems to me she is making herself virtually unemployable with all her tantrums.

[barry1010]

She is unemployable. She needs help and she needs to shut up

[curlyfries81]

Laura Whitmore and a third anonymous person also made claims about Pernice's behaviour. 

If people are too critical of Amanda Abbington then that will discourage people from coming forward regarding bullying. 

The BBC have a long history of cover-ups, so lets not try to forget that.

[Mozz71]

Dunno Bazza, looks like you made your mind up about her long ago and will consider her the aggressor whatever may surface. If she's right for a roll, she'll be hired. Very few actors are completely unemployable without a very good reason.

[Mozz71]

Right for a role even. Whether she's right for a roll is her business only.

[ladybirder]

I also haven't watched it for many years now since all the hullabaloo and flashig lights started.  Used to love it at one time.

And AA!  Who the heck does she think she is.
