James Jordan hits back! Former Strictly star slams BBC for editing 'unrelated' footage to make it seem he was abusing dance partner and says he 'deplores bullying' after video emerged as crisis on the show deepens


Ex Strictly pro James Jordan has furiously hit back after unearthed footage emerged of him telling his partner he would 'drag her across the floor and scream at her' if she forgot her moves.

Former Strictly Come Dancing professional James Jordan has furiously hit back after unearthed footage emerged of him telling his partner Georgina Bouzova he would 'drag her across the floor and scream at her' if she forgot her moves. Jordan, who left Strictly in 2012 after appearing on eight series, also banned Ms Bouzova, who formerly starred on BBC medical drama Casualty, from eating sweets and chocolate and would only allow her to buy pineapple and ham when they visited a supermarket together. The video, which emerged just days after Graziano was sacked for allegedly hitting and kicking his partner Zara, was shown on Strictly spin-off It Takes Two at the time with its then host Claudia Winkleman introducing it to viewers.
