That’s not a very convincing argument. Every year there are conspiracy theories about various BBC employees and none of them ever stand up to scrutiny.

Why do they need to ‘force’ an Annabel win in order for her to become the next Wimbledon presenter? If Clare Balding is either being shoved aside or has decided to leave, why would Annabel being offered the role have anything whatsoever to do with Strictly? She’s clearly doing very well in the public vote as it is, so a lot of people seemingly already like her.

It’s not like she wouldn’t be the natural successor anyway, regardless.
 
Yeah, I think conspiracy theories that they want anyone in particular to win, especially Annabel are a bit ridiculous. I could believe that they wanted to create a 'ooh, could a dark horse take a finale spot away from one of the three front-runners?' storyline, so they've overscored her a bit the last couple of weeks and bigged her up as a real contender to add some excitement and tension over who's going to get to the final. (Wonder if they're kicking themselves now they've created a situation where there's a real chance they could be stuck with her in a two person final, lol) But there's no way I think they're desperately trying to scupper everyone else to force a win for her.
