Former Strictly Come Dancing dancer, Nicole Cutler, has hit out at show producers and made a slew of claims including that the professional dancers are paid only £6 per hour, are made to change in a hallway in front of one another, and are ignored by celebrity judges and presenters alike.

After reading her story in the News Of The World I am finding it hard to work out if Nicole’s claims are fair or if it is a case of a bitter ex-employee hitting out at the company who wronged her. The fact that she finishes the article by saying that she would jump at the chance to return to the show makes me wonder if it is really that bad a place to spend six months a year?
