Craig Revel Horwood has taken aim at Ola Jordan after the former Strictly pro called for him to be replaced on the show due to his “nicey nicey” judging skills.
The BBC star has hit back with a cheeky slam involving none other than Ola’s fellow ex-Strictly-pro hubby, James Jordan.

Last month, Ola ruffled feathers by claiming Craig had lost his “sparkle”. She also stated that Strictly needs a freshen up if the show is to rake in viewers at the end of 2025.
Despite being praised as one of the best finals ever, the Strictly final 2024 was reportedly the least watched final ever, with 8.6 million viewers – and Ola reckons she knows the solution…
Ola teamed up with Mecca Bingo to get her thoughts out there, stating: “Maybe they need to refresh,” before describing how all the judges comments seem to be positive and how viewers “could be getting bored”.
It was here that Ola hinted that Craig’s role also needed to be “refreshed”. She said: “I feel like Craig’s lost his sparkle. People loved Craig for what he was before. He would say it as it is, saying he wasn’t good, that was rubbish. But, it’s almost like he’s got to say a positive now. He’s obviously been told they’ve got to be positive and that they don’t want any negativity in the show and that comes from producers. But they need to look at what the public wants really. It’s too nicey nicey.”
