Strictly Come Dancing - John Sergeant gets attacked by Cherie Lunghi

Tuesday, 18 November 2008

Cherie Lunghi has shown that she is a sore loser by turning on John Sergeant.

The actress was voted off Strictly Come Dancing on Saturday night despite the judges wanting to get rid of John.

The political journalist was saved by the public who voted to keep him from the Strictly dance off.

Cherie told the BBC: "Christina (John's partner) is a wonderful dancer and makes him look wonderful. I don't know whether it's a Marilyn Monroe kind of fantasy or whatever, but it's a show and it is entertainment.

"It is almost like there are two shows going on. John is dancing and competing, but there is this whole soap thing and there is sympathy for the character."

Cherie's dance partner James Jordan added: "I want to see the best dancer win, but I do understand people are voting because they love John Sergeant. Some people are saying I'm a sore loser, but it is not about that.

"I just want to make sure the best dancers stay in the competition. I understand the show is successful because we have people like John Sergeant, but enough is enough."
