Reality show ‘Strictly Come Dancing' in turmoil again as BBC investigates alleged cocaine use

The BBC has launched an internal investigation into 'Strictly Come Dancing' following fresh allegations of drug use on set, reigniting turmoil around the flagship show. The Sun reported that two unnamed stars were accused of taking cocaine, prompting the broadcaster to hire an external legal firm to lead the probe. 'We have clear protocols and policies in place for dealing with any serious complaint raised with us,' a BBC spokeswoman told Deadline. 'We would always encourage people to speak to us if they have concerns. It would not be appropriate for us to comment further.' Deadline reported that the legal team will report directly to an internal BBC unit handling the matter. According to The Sun, the original accusations stemmed from a legal submission made months ago by Russells law firm on behalf of former contestant Wynne Evans. The claim alleges that two individuals—whose identities have not been disclosed, nor whether they are professional dancers or celebrity participants—used cocaine, and that the behaviour was 'well known on set'. Evans, who was recently let go from his BBC radio show after being caught on camera making a lewd comment during the Strictly live tour, commented on Instagram: 'It breaks my heart to say the BBC has decided not to renew my contract so I won't be returning to my radio show.' This latest scandal follows last year's controversy involving professional dancers, including Giovanni Pernice, whose dispute with ex-partner Amanda Abbington became public amid an internal BBC inquiry. At the time, the broadcaster implemented new welfare policies in hopes of improving the workplace environment. Now, with its 23rd season approaching, 'Strictly Come Dancing' finds itself once again battling to protect its reputation.

'Worst experience' in 18 years, says Sara Allegations of Threats and Mismanagement Message of Caution to Fellow Artists Television actor Sara Khan , widely known for her roles in Sapna Babul Ka… Bidaai and her appearance on Bigg Boss , has come forward with a deeply troubling account of her experience at a recent fashion event in Delhi. In a video posted to Instagram, Khan recounted a series of events that allegedly left her feeling unsafe and disrespected, prompting her to issue a strong warning to others in the entertainment explained that she had been invited to attend a fashion event in Delhi on August 2. While she has long associated the capital city with warmth and hospitality, her recent experience painted a starkly different picture. According to the actor, the event's organisers failed to meet even the most basic expectations regarding safety and professional noted that although certain arrangements had been promised, these were not honoured. The hotel originally agreed upon was changed at the last minute without informing her, resulting in her being placed in an "unknown" and reportedly "shady" location with no assistance from the event management said the only support provided was a car and driver, which she found inadequate and unsettling given the overall disorganisation. When she refused to proceed with the event under such conditions, one of the organisers allegedly issued threats to her team members. Feeling vulnerable and unsupported, she ultimately had to book her own flight back and take independent steps to ensure her and her team's described the entire ordeal as both physically and mentally distressing. In her message, she emphasised that mutual respect, basic hospitality, and safety should never be compromised—especially in professional setups where trust is her video and caption, Sara made it clear that her intention was not to name individuals but to highlight a collective failure in event management. She urged other performers and professionals to stay alert and avoid placing complete trust in verbal commitments alone. She also acknowledged her own misjudgment in taking the organiser's assurances at face value, reflecting that such experiences are critical for regret for missing the event and disappointing fans, Sara reiterated that her safety had to come first under such dire circumstances. She stated that she was sharing her story not out of anger but as a protective gesture toward her peers in the industry.
