Strictly in new fix row as fans claim favourite has been set up for final
Bobby Brazier says next performance is very ’emotional’
Strictly Come Dancing fans have accused BBC bosses of favouritism ahead of the semi-finals, claiming that one celebrity has been given an easier routine. “Suspicious” viewers took to Twitter to claim that Eastenders star Bobby Brazier has been given a less complex routine compared to his competitors.
Bobby, 20, will face Annabel Croft, Ellie Leach and Layton Williams alongside their partners this Saturday.
He will perform a Paso Doble and a Quickstep with his professional partner, Dianne Buswell.
Taking to X (formerly known Twitter) one said: “I’m sorry but does no one else find it incredibly suspicious that everyone other than Bobby has been given a dud dance, just before the finale?”

“The producers favourite aka their ‘BBC darling’ has got a paso and a quickstep.” (sic)
Another added: “I see you producers. I see you.”
A third penned: “Ellie and Annabel have been screwed over!”

Nevertheless, Bobby has been a popular contestant throughout the series and plenty of fans have spoken out that he’s a talented dancer and deserving of a place in the final.
Writing on X, one user said: “My fav celebrity dancer Bobby Brazier and my fav Strictly Come Dancing professional dancer Dianne Buswell.”
Speaking of his performance last week another added: “Bobby Brazier is fantastic – just adore him. What a brilliant Samba – he just went for it. His best dance yet!!”
Earlier this month, Bobby moved fans with his tribute dance to his late mother Jade Goody who died of cervical cancer when he was five-years-old.
The special routine also touched the hearts of Dianne’s family – as her father is currently battling cancer in her native Australia.
Fans were quick to jump in the comments section, praising the breathtaking performance.
One said: “They deserved a 40 for this. Such a beautiful dance and tribute!”
Another added: “I remember listening to your mum’s words saying she wanted to leave a legacy for her boys – you just paid the most ultimate tribute to her words. From one mum to another, you made her so proud.”
