STRICTLY’S cast and crew are furious over the return of dancer Aljaž Škorjanec — as it emerged he left the show under a cloud after a “shocking” altercation with a female professional.

The Sun can reveal the Slovenian, 34, agreed to go after the incident on a boozy night out on the 2022 live tour.

Last night the BBC denied an official complaint was made over the incident.

But it raises questions why the under-fire broadcaster would welcome Aljaz back to replace Giovanni Pernice, who quit over his own abuse claims.

The BBC is due to announce the findings of the internal investigation into Giovanni’s case within days.
