I really can’t see how Giovanni can come back to Strictly if this does go down the legal route depending on how long it takes surely he will have to be on some sort of gardening leave? One thing he won’t be able to mention it on his tours! He may also have to be careful with what he says on his tours about Strictly.

Aw, poor thing. You mind yourself and hope you're not feeling too bad.
The pros are contracted on a series by series basis, they’re not on a permanent contract, so there’s no necessity for any form of ‘leave’. Depending on how things pan out, all that needs to happen is that he doesn’t get offered a contact for the 2024 series.
Amanda actually seemed pretty damn popular to me across SM with the Beryls. Whether that was by default of being paired with Gio, I don't know. I even remember my mum saying this about a group she followed, that the only female celeb they talked about was Amanda. After she went, they gravitated to Annabel.
Regarding breaks, even Layton outright said on ITT how strict Nikita was being during week 10 and wouldn't let him go to the loo or stop for food! He then said, "I'm sure there are rules against that..." Now he may have said it jokingly, but many a true word is spoken in jest and obviously they had great relationship , but still... you simply can't have pros getting that carried away.

I wonder if she didn’t get her full fee for leaving hence this story about PTSD?! I think she had issues …her partner also has a claim going on or had for his accident …
Looked at DM and not v complimentary about Amanda …
I think she is hard work that’s the vibe I get/got

What will happen about his adventure to Spain with Anton - I guess that will be put on hold until this resolved?
I think her and Fanny Rat were probably a match made in hell. Both absolute arseholes.
I say that's the truth of it!!
TBF while Neil is annoying, has he ever allegedly given anyone PTSD? (bar @StephenTJackson through his unbearable hotness
)I agree that if Amanda wanted a new partner they should have agreed that Gio step aside with his injury excuse, and given her Gorka, or Neil. She'd have had a perfectly ok experience.
Interesting to see if Gio returns this year…
I kinda hope he doesn't, he just doesn't have a kind face. I never warmed to him even though when I initially saw him I thought he was fit as duck that quickly went away.
I think this is the case!
I thought she came across as a bit of nervous wreck on Strictly. This is a really intense experience, I think there should be some kind of psychological assessment before they are offered a place to make sure they can handle it. I get that a few weeks with Gio might not be a very pleasant experience (it’s certainly not something I would want, Nikita would be a different matter) but to get diagnosed with PTSD would suggest to me there is something else going on there. She doesn’t appear to be very emotionally robust.
The show has just gotten too intense. The 12 hour rehearsal days are just ridiculously long and it wouldn't surprise me if injuries happened through sheer exhaustion. The producers are too concerned with the "big happy family" idea that Amanda would have never been allowed another partner because if they pretended Gio had an injury people would have expected them to end up partnered again at some point and when they didn't stories would start up. They need a limit on how many hours they have to rehearse a day and they need to think more about who they partner with who.
Before you start @StephenTJackson, yes we know you will help Neil to shine by
Oh yea I will. Lots of exposed skin, sexy dancing, close and intimate. He will shine so bright.
Definitely, they need to stop being so risky with the celebs wellbeing. What happened to Nigel was ridiculous (being dropped by pros) and what could of happened to Ellie was just downright dangerous. It doesn't need to be bigger and better every year with more stunts that have the potential to go wrong. We just want good dances.
Exactly. It would be no harm at all, to pare things back a bit.
There's a lot of pressure on the celebrities to produce so many dances especially as the competition moves on. It will also put celebrities off signing up, imo, if there are a lot of negative stories emerging.
The expectations that the judges have, of some celebrities (
