Les Dennis says Strictly Come Dancing experience was ‘like Black Swan’
The former Family Fortunes presenter said the BBC dancing show’s professional partners ‘really want to push you outside your comfort zone’.
TV star Les Dennis has said his “great” Strictly Come Dancing experience felt “like Black Swan” due to the professional dancers’ desire to win.
Despite comparing the BBC dancing show to the ballet horror film, the 70-year-old said he enjoyed his time on the programme but added that the professional partners “really want to push you outside your comfort zone”.
The former Family Fortunes presenter made the comments on ITV’s Good Morning Britain when asked about the controversy over the alleged treatment of contestants on the show.
The results of an investigation, launched by the BBC following allegations made about Italian professional dancer Giovanni Pernice by former participant Amanda Abbington, have not yet been published by the corporation.
