Strictly Come Dancing 2018 winners Stacey Dooley, 31, and Kevin Clifton, 36, spoke in a joint interview about winning the show and a confrontation with outspoken judge Craig Revel Horwood, 53. The pair were quizzed about a particular face Kevin pulled at Craig after he gave them a nine in their final Paso Doble performance. Addressing the expression, the BBC star said: “Good for you, Kev!” Explaining the reason behind it, Kevin added to this week's OK! Magazine: “Yeah. He always seems to come down on my partner and me in the final, so I was like no, not again!
“But I saw him at the wrap party afterwards and I was like: ‘Craig, man, you were killing us there,’ and he just laughed.”
Stacey added: “He was on great form - as good as gold.”
Despite obtaining lower scores from Craig than their fellow finalists, the duo went on to win the Glitterball trophy.
Following their win, Stacey spoke out about her lack of 10s in the final in a tweet exchange with former judge and winner Alesha Dixon.
The latter tweeted Stacey writing: “Don't worry @StaceyDooley I don't think Craig EVER gave me a 10!!! Still a winner #strictlyfinal.”
