Craig’s act just ‘boring’

-

EX-STRICTLY dancer James Jordan has claimed judge Craig Revel Horwood makes the show “boring”.

The pair have been enemies for years and often clashed both behind the scenes and on camera.

In a stinging attack, James claimed Craig’s “Mr Nasty” persona was old hat.

He said: “Craig isn’t really worth talking about – he does the same thing year in, year out. It’s boring now.” Before James quit Strictly four years ago the pair had a string of on-air spats.

He added: “Craig has said that I’m bitter because I’m not on the show anymore. But he would say that. He’s just jealous of me. I think maybe he fancies me. That’s what it is.” James and his wife Ola became famous on Strictly and next year will tour the UK with a steamy dance show titled Uncensored.

But they warned Craig he isn’t welcome.

James said: “If Craig didn’t like our show I wouldn’t really care. He doesn’t know anything about ballroom and Latin dancing anyway.

“Let’s not forget he was just a backing dancer for Arlene Phillips.”

Sexy Ola added: “I don’t think we’ll let Craig in.”

The feud between the couple and Craig has gone on for years, with James once threatenin­g to ruin Craig’s career.

He said in 2015: “I’d want to be paid a lot of money for the informatio­n I have about him.”

And Craig hit back at Ola’s “fix” claims in the same year, saying: “I am so bored of the Jordans now. If you’re going to bite the hand that feeds you, then at least do it in a more intelligen­t way.”
