Phillip Schofield defends Strictly after 'fix row' over Fleur East's 're-recorded' dance

Phillip Schofield has defended Strictly Come Dancing over the reported "re-recording" of one couple's dance-off performance, amid "cover-up claims".

The This Morning host backed the decision to allow one celebrity the chance to re-do their routine, after an apparent stumble at the start that led to on-site medical staff checking them over.

It's been reported that Fleur East and her professional dance partner Vito Coppola were allowed to restart their routine, in scenes that were not shown in the final edit.
