The cynic in me would suggest that the big cheeses at ITV noticed the spike in ratings Strictly Come Dildoing got after that racist business, and decided on a little controversy themselves.
My thoughts exactly Jamie. I reckon you're spot on there. OK, hands up, I watch the shite (in a post-modern sense don't you know 🙄 ) when there's nothing much on but I can't help feeling that it's all very stage managed and fixed. I guess they need to be fairly clean with the voting after recent scandals but that comment from Danni last night must have been rehearsed.
She's no fool and I can't believe she'd come out with something like that on a live TV show with millions watching. Surely she'd think to herself "Now, will commenting on a contestant's sexuality cause all sorts of uproar?"
The show is a whore for publicity. I assume we'll hear of all kinds of in-fighting between the judges this week, with threats of walk-outs, Cheryl comforting Simon, Louis comforting Danni or Danni mysteriously disappearing off to spend some time alone, leaving her mentorees in the lurch, only to return miraculously in time for next Saturday's show.
