Bruno a copycat? Shirley not!

Strictly Craig jokes that his pal peeks at head judge’s scores

SNAP Judges Shirley & Bruno STRICTLY judge Bruno Tolioni has been accused of peeking at head judge Shirley Ballas’ scores before revealing his.

Fellow judge Craig Revel Horwood claims that’s why the pair often have similar figures.

He said yesterday: “Bruno sits next to Shirley and looks at what she is doing. They seem to have the same score all the time – just one apart from one another.”

The choreographer, 53, insists there is no other collusion after Vick Hope accused judges of having a “confab” with producers before sending her home last weekend. He added: “That is illegal and I wouldn’t want that.” Strictly bosses said judges cast their votes secretly on electronic panels before lifting paddles to reveal marks out of 10.

And a source close to Craig, who was speaking at Yeovil Literary Festival in Somerset, insisted he was “joking” and was merely “teasing” his friend Bruno.
