NEWSDECK ANALYSIS
Amanda Abbington's time on Strictly Come Dancing was marked by a high profile partnership with professional dancer Giovanni Pernice, with the two competing together in the show's 2023 season. The BBC has a formal complaints process in place for addressing allegations of bullying and harassment, which Abbington would have had to follow in order to pursue her claim. The settlement reached between Abbington and the BBC may set a precedent for how the corporation handles similar allegations in the future.
