News about Krishnan Guru-Murthy

When Amanda Abbington tearfully told how she suffered 'humiliating behaviour of a sexual nature' at the hands of her Strictly dance partner Giovanni Pernice during a sit-down interview with Channel 4 on Wednesday night, Pernice's lawyers were watching. I'm told they were stunned that Abbington had initiated a chat with Krishnan Guru-Murthy, who had appeared on the same season of the dance show as the actress, before the result of the BBC's own investigation into her claims against the Sicilian dancer had been revealed. Pernice's hawks from celebrity firm Schillings were, of course, on high alert for any new accusations that might defame their famous client, whose fall-out with Amanda began almost a year ago.

Speaking to MailOnline, British communications expert Judi James , said Amanda 'holds back very little' with her words and displays of emotions. Amanda told presenter and fellow Strictly contestant, Krishnan Guru-Murthy, that alleged harassment received by trolls in recent months had been 'brutal and relentless and unforgiving'. 'As she says 'brutal' her eye contact with Krishnan is strong to make her point and her brows raise and her lips purse slightly as she nods her head in a baton gesture that comes with a small twist of what looks like anger or indignance,' Judi said. 'The head-nod batons keep going as she says 'relentless' and when she says the word 'unforgiving' there is a micro-sneer gesture of disgust as the nod rate accelerates, but she bravely performs a polite smile over the top.'

Looking pale and pensive, Amanda Abbington checked her phone as she emerged for the first time since her bombshell Channel 4 appearance on Wednesday evening. In an emotionally charged interview, Abbington doubled down on her previous allegations of backstage abuse on Strictly Come Dancing and claimed sacked dancer Giovanni Pernice was trying to block the release of up to 50 hours of 'toxic' footage'. The actress, 50, compared the dance show to 'the trenches', telling presenter Krishnan Guru-Murthy - who has also featured as a contestant on the show - that BBC producers were left 'horrified' by clips that also allegedly exhibited 'humiliating behaviour of a sexual nature'.

Around 4.6 million viewers tuned to the broadcaster's coverage, which was fronted by Clive Myrie and Laura Kuenssberg, when the exit poll was announced at 10pm, according to industry publication Broadcast. However, the average number of viewers recorded on BBC1, until 2am, dropped by about a third from the 2019 vote, down from 4.3 million to 2.9 million. Despite this, the corporation's coverage on its flagship channel still easily outstripped its nearest rivals getting more than three times ITV 's 840,000. But Channel 4 , which this year brought in Emily Maitlis as a co-presenter alongside Krishnan Guru-Murthy, saw a large boost in its election night audience, jumping from 240,000 in the previous election to more than 650,000 across the night.

Appearing on Channel 4 as part of the broadcaster's election programme, hosted by Emily Maitlis and Krishnan Guru-Murthy, Ms Dorries clashed with the former Labour spokesperson just minutes after polls closed at 10pm. The ex-culture secretary and staunch Boris Johnson loyalist said the projected results are a 'disaster' for the party, after an exit poll predicted the party would return just 131 seats. Pressed on the meteoric rise of Reform, which is projected to get 13 seats, Ms Dorriess pointed out that the far-right party was polling in the low single digits while Mr Johnson was Prime Minister. Mr Campbell then interrupted her and said: 'You really need to get over Boris.'

Since appearing on Strictly Come Dancing last year, Krishnan Guru-Murthy has confessed to falling in love with show business. The Channel 4 newsreader, 53, who is also on the current Strictly UK tour, says he now wants to be a more diverse star rather than simply doing serious broadcasting. He explained how, 30 years ago, the BBC's head of news said he had to choose whether he wanted to be 'Bruce Forsyth or Jeremy Paxman' because he 'couldn't do both.'

During his stint in Strictly Come Dancing, Bobby Brazier put on an animated performance as he posed in a new photoshoot for Dust magazine. The 20-year-old WestEnders star went shirtless for the photo shoot in which he posed in a pair of denim shorts. The actor posed in a series of tumescent poses while still showing off a variety of tattoos on his arms and abdomen.

Krishnan Guru-Murthy, 53, has revealed that after his Strictly Come Dancing stint, he's having a career shake-up. Jay, 16, who was at Glastonbury with his band Askew, and the Channel 4 News journalist, said he had encouraged him to form a band together.

Since Krishnan Guru-Murthy was sent home on Sunday night, the Strictly Come Dancing actress has come under fire once more. Fans have slammed the 79-year-old host for her remarks about her dance-off appearance after she almost died during her Paso Doble with partner Kai Widdrington. Appearing on It Takes Two, host Fleur East asked the star how she felt going into the dance off, as she asked: 'Did you think it was all over?'

After Krishnan Guru-Murthy was sent home on Sunday night, Strictly Come Dancing supporters have once more accused the show of being a 'fix.' After crashing at the bottom of the leaderboard and ending up in the dreaded dance off, the newsreader, 53, and his supporter Lauren Oakley were forced to leave. As both actors tried to impress the judges one last time, Krishnan met Angela Rippon and her dance partner Kai Widdrington.

Following Sunday's dreadful dance off, Krishnan Guru-Murthy became the seventh celebrity to be barred from Strictly Come Dancing 2023. After landing at the bottom of the leaderboard, the newsreader who danced a Samba on Saturday left the program with her professional partner Lauren Oakley. In the dramatic dance off between Krishnan and TV presenter Angela Rippon, the two actors attempted to impress the judges one last time.

He's quickly becoming the favorite on this year's Strictly Come Dancing - earning him thousands of young followers who praise him as a 'legend' and a 'hero.' Krishnan Guru-Murthy, 53, says he wants to put his new approachable persona to good use by urging the younger generation to become more familiar with current affairs. "My social media was Twitter because it's a news platform essentially," the Channel 4 news anchor, who now has 30 thousand Instagram followers, said.

Krishnan Guru-Murthy has said that his time on Strictly Come Dancing has brought 'balance' back to his life as a Middle Eastern newsreader covering the Middle East. On the new season of the BBC dance competition, the Channel 4 News host, 53, is partnered with pro Lauren Oakley. He is Channel 4's second-longest serving host, having joined the news team in 1988.

On Krishnan Guru-Murthy's 53rd birthday in April, he realized he could no longer be 'overweight and unattractive.' Lisa, his wife, was 'looking hot' after transforming her own fitness by running ten miles every other day and joining a rowing club, according to him. Krishnan, the Channel 4 News host, confessed to feeling that he was left behind. He has lost two-and-a-half stones on BBC1's Strictly Come Dancing, and he now needs seven fewer holes to improve his trouser belt. With a cha-cha to Apache Indian's Boom Shack-A-Lak last weekend, he and pro-partner Lauren Oakley impressed. He confessed later that he 'couldn't stop smiling' after dressing in an orange suit.

On Monday, a new iteration of the award-winning documentary series will air at 9 p.m., but the program's specifics are being kept under wraps until the show is broadcast. People are raving over the show's content, and the tense quality of the program has sparked a debate on social media. It comes just weeks after Channel 4 unexpectedly revealed a special Saturday night edition of its Dispatches investigative service, the details of which had been vague, but it was later revealed to be an exposé of charges against Russell Brand (inset).

Russel Brand has taken to YouTube to deny's'serious claims' ahead of a tense Channel 4 Dispatches probe. On Saturday night, the much-anticipated program is scheduled to air, with rumors about who or what might be involved in the investigation. The comedian, actor, and internet celebrity informed his followers that there are'serious allegations' against him, which he 'fully refutes.'

More speculation emerged that the 90-minute special on Channel 4 at 9 p.m. tomorrow might have sparked more anticipation. Including the caption, he shared a snapshot of the day as 'Something's up,' before deleting it about an hour later. Mr Guru-Murphy, 53, a television presenter who has worked with Channel 4 for 25 years, said he was advised not to cancel it because the program's nature is'sensitive.' In the meantime, rumors on social media about whether a celebrity's affair would be included in the investigation, which will air tomorrow night, reignited. The Channel 4 TV guide simply names the highly awaited program as 'New: Dispatches Special.' A 90-minute special Dispatches investigation.'

Following the global pandemic and his heart disease diagnosis, Krishnan Guru-Murthy spoke open about signing up for Strictly Come Dancing. After turning it down several times, the British journalist, 53, said the lockdown had compelled him to finally accept a role on the BBC show. This year, everything has changed.' I've been asked to do Strictly before, and it has never been a huge no. But this year, I think it's perhaps a mixture of post pandemic and the time of my life, considering that a lot of people have been going through tough times.'

Krishnan Guru-Murthy has confirmed that the Strictly Come Dancing bosses will have a defibrillator on hand when he performs after being diagnosed with a genetic heart disease. The Channel 4 newsreader, 53, has hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, which has killed two of his cousins and prevented him from attending the show. He has said that keeping his heart out of the red zone is critical, and that his cardiologists has not promised that he'll't die while doing.

Strictly Come Dancing is back on TV screens once more, with the film showing later this month. The 2023 BBC One series will showcase an immaculate star-studded lineup, as well as unexpected changes to dance partnering, with one well-known professional dancer deciding to leave the competition while another is forced to withdraw from competing. Amanda Abbington, Angela Rippon, Layton Williams, Krishnan Guru-Murthy, Eddie Kadi, Angela Scanlon, Zara McDermott, Adam Thomas, and Nikita Kanda will compete on the floor this year. Ellie Leach, Jody Cundy, Bobby Brazier, Nigel Harman, Annabel Croft, and Les Dennis will all be joined by them, although Amy Dowden will not be able to participate in the team numbers as she undergoes breast cancer chemotherapy. So, when does the spectacle begin, what is happening with the professional dancers and when will the Strictly Come Dancing results show take place?

Krishnan Guru-Murthy, the Strictly Come Dancing actor, has admitted the real reason he wanted to attend the performance after turning it down multiple times. After a'very bad time' in news, the veteran broadcaster, 53, told MailOnline that he was looking for some 'pure joy' in his life.' In this year's Strictly Come Dancing parade, Krishnan will appear alongside Angela Rippon, Annabel Croft, and Bobby Brazier, with actors set to take the floor for the first time in a glittering launch show on Saturday.

For the first time before making their show debut, the Strictly Come Dancing stars donned their finest ensembles. The 15 contestants woke up to a riot, sparkly gold and black outfits, and posed up a ruckus, much to the delight of fans. All the ladies put on a leggy display in the group photo of the 2023 line-up as they rocked glamorous gold dresses for the group picture.

It's not long before the new series of Strictly Come Dancing premieres, and actors and professionals alike are already deep in rehearsals. Krishnan Guru-Murthy has revealed that he is unable to commit to as vigorous a training program as other actors due to a heart disease. The newsreader, 53, confirmed that he suffers from the genetic heart disease hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, which caused the death of two cousins.

Since signing up for Strictly Come Dancing, Krishnan Guru-Murthy has been spotted on the BBC. During Strictly Come Dancing host Claudia Winkelman's BBC Radio 2 show on Saturday morning, the Channel 4 newsreader, 53, was announced as the fourth celebrity to appear in the forthcoming series. After Krishnan blasted them on a new podcast, BBC bosses are 'not happy.' "I worked for them for ten years, but I do love it when they are in danger," he said.
