Find it a bit odd/tasteless that the pros on insta are like ‘strictly is back, we’re so happy’ when all this news is swirling. The only person I can take doing it is Amy who must feel on cloud 9 to be back after her year.
Yeah I think only Vito hasn't and it makes me like him more. It's great it's worked out for them but people are being way too casual about the assault of a woman.

I think posting once or twice is fine but the constant videos is a bit weird and insensitive. I would imagine though that they have been told to continue and post as normal.
 
The posting we are back doesn’t really bother me, but, what does is the fact no one involved in Strictly appears to have made a public statement, saying they don’t condone any type of abuse. Anton (who is also problematic), is the only person to have unfollowed Graz. Vito being the only person to unfollow Gio. Whilst likes and follows shouldn’t really be taken notice of, it does make a statement these days.
I wonder if Tess and Claudia will do some kind of statement on the first show, in similar vein to Holly Wills after the Philly S This Morning stuff.

I think they have probably been briefed not to draw any attention to it and just carry on as normal, pretending everything is all rainbows and unicorns.

Oh Lord, imagine Tessbot asking us all if we're OK! 🤣🙈

I agree with this. The DM is having a field day with stories on Strictly atm, could you imagine what they'd be like if people started unfollowing the ones that were fired or if they weren't posting things about happy they were to be back?
 
Why are alllll the Strictly babies so cute 🥰 🥰 🥰

When you have the likes of Amanda Platell writing an excoriating article about Amanda in a national publication, what hope has she or any woman (Zara) getting justice or being believed about workplace abuse, or in fact any abuse. :(

I am stunned at the vitriol aimed at Amanda and her family. It's appalling, and what saddens me the most, it's mainly from other women.:mad:
 
Well done to Krishnan doing the interview. I just can’t understand how anyone would think it was OK to send those sort of things to Amanda or why anyone even would - what is wrong people. Wonder if Gio will stay quiet after this interview or whether he will do a statement saying he doesn’t condone that type of behaviour. Then again he left his comments on knowing full well there would be hate sent Amanda’s way.
 
Wow .. poor Amanda. How recent is this interview.
Pretty sure it's very recent. She's on Loose Women tomorrow as well so doing the round. Krishnan's shading of FR in his posts is very clearly reflective of his attitude.

Amanda interestingly mentioned 'three other women'. I guess she's talking about Laura, Ranvir and Zara? but for a minute I wondered if there was a fourth FR complainant, which would have to be either Faye or Rose..

I thought Amanda was saying 3 other women re Gio. Which made sense I swear I read 5 celebs had raised issues re Gio and one was a man.
 
Jeez this interview has made me feel so emotional. The level of abuse she’s received & threats towards her family have been utterly horrific and for what, speaking up on her own experience on Strictly and calling out behaviour that wasn’t ok and there is obviously a culture here with the same pro as others complained to. This is not isolated to her.
No wonder Zara didn’t want to speak out.
