EX-STRICTLY star Rachel Riley has accused the BBC1 dance show of being fixed and says the bosses know who they want to win. The Countdown Maths whizz, 36, took part on the show in 2013 and met her future husband Pasha Kovalev, 42, when she was paired with him.
But despite their sizzling chemistry, Rachel was voted out in the fifth round of the contest, partly because she was so inexperienced at dancing.
She said: "I think they know from the start who they want to win and what journeys they want to take different people on, to have the right balance, and they can obviously fix the scores." Rachel added that the show was "very produced" and that the British public wants contestants who are beginners rather than celebs with extensive training.
Speaking to The Sunday Times Magazine, she said: "I think Brits want an underdog. We want to build someone up, not see someone who is good from the start - that's not the heart of these programmes." .css-16e4f55{margin:16px 0;}.css-1czxmma{background-color:rgba(252,239,255,1);margin:16px 0;}.css-1tapza8{padding:20px 15px;}.css-1bk4jdt{padding:20px.
