amanda abbington, who is no doubt a lovely person and clearly a talented actress, complained to the bbcent at the hands of the italian professional dancer giovanni pernice on strictly come dancing now. this led to an investigation that lasted wait for it nine months. this isn't the bloody watergate scandal. this isn't covid contracts or the post office inquiry . this is a tv dance inquiry. this is a tv dance competition. there were two parties involved and plenty of witnesses like producers, researchers and cameramen. i could have got this investigation done in a morning. ultimately, the serious allegations against pernice were not upheld. but he has paid the ultimate price, something that i predicted would happen in my take at ten on may the 25th of this year. you should for stand up their star italian dancer, but i think it's more likely that their next choreographed move will be to throw him under the bus. whether guilty or not, giovanni pernice has probably had his last dance , and had his last dance, and unfortunately, giovanni does look to have had his last dance. he's been banish
