  • As the BBC struggles with the biggest Strictly crisis in the show’s 20-year history, Paralympian Will Bayley joins us after revealing he now lives with excruciating knee pain 'forever' after competing on the show back in 2019. The table tennis player sustained the injury during rehearsals for the show when he jumped from a table. The Paralympian speaks out about how he perceives things were handled wrongfully.

    I'm so glad to have found a clip of Will actually speaking of his experience rather than a fake headline. I think he's right that the dancers need more support to cater to different needs and to contestants to deal with the physical, mental and emotional weight of the show and throughout the whole film process. I adore Strictly and I hope it comes out of this situation a better and healthier show and continues to be well loved

    What a nice chap, he has clearly been a victim of the media twisting his words and story. Great that he was able to speak about it like this and it completely cleared it up and showed that all he was asking for was some care after his injury and how to prevent it happening to anyone else in future! Good luck for the Paralympics I will certainly be cheering you on!

    Sometimes people just need a metaphorical cuddle! My daughter is going through dreadful pain at the moment. She emailed her line manager to update her on progress and didn’t even get a reply. Some people in positions of power don’t seem to have any people skills.
    Thanks Will for clarifying your position, there’s a lot of noise about…and bon chance a Paris! 🏅

      He’s not really laying blame. He’s just saying that maybe strictly should have more expert input when choreographing dances who can identify what will and won’t work.

  • @rebeccaly21
    @rebeccaly21 Місяць тому +6

    He seems lovely and these concerns are legitimate. All of the complaints made should be investigated. Sick of the strictly fanatics rushing to defend the dancers and dismissing potential abuse.

    It's disappointing that anyone would be hesitant to speak out about a workplace injury because a certain section of society mocks and shames anyone they perceive as being progressive

    Yes…. Very positive experience in all from Will but sadly will now tarnish Janette’s reputation.
