    A pap. And the same pap that made such allegations against another celeb which was subsequently dropped.

    Merseyside Police have confirmed a 29 year old man from Billinge in Lancashire has been arrested on suspicion of assault. It's believed that it followed an collision between a car and a pedestrian.

    He remains in custody and is helping Merseyside Police with their enquiries.

    Sorry, just thought people would be intersted - not gloating. Not a Whittle fan, but no one on this series seems to be having much luck.

    He may have been provoked or it may be blown out of proportion if it's a pap. Pity that whatever the outcome it looks like he will miss Friday training and he needs to get down to London pretty sharpish tomorrow (or is it normally tonight?) as well.

    This series really is turning into Nightmare from Strictly Street.

    Chris and Ola and Natalie and Vincent are doing great. :p No injuries, racist accusations, dance offs, arrests... ;)

    Hopefully he will make it down and be able to catch up on rehearsal - not a Whittle fan - I think it is the lack of a smile at the beginning of ITT (yes I repeat myself), but he is a good dancer, probably the best left and I am looking forward to all the dances this weekend.

    Watching ITT have to hope Vincent doesn't have a dramatic roly poly related accident and Chris and Ola aren't crushed in the VW championship dodgems ; )

    Does anyone know what the rule is on getting a bye week if you're in custody? :confused:

    I wondered why he hasn't done his usual tweet about being on the train into London

    I'm begining to suspect sabotage. Is it a coincidence that it is all the better dancers being taken out. Maybe Craig is still there haunting the place the phantom of SCD or it could be one of the other innocent seeming celebs or a desperate pro has finally cracked.

    Having read both articles - he might actually struggle to get down to London today. Questioning later today and then hopefully released on bail...Not good news:(

    "The incident involved a collision with a male pedestrian."

    Eh? That seems to suggest something like pap was sticking his camera up to a car and Ricky knocked him as he drove off. If that's the case, can't say I blame him that much...

    Whatever the rights and wrongs of the circumstances you are not supposed to leave the scene of an accident. He had been at a 'leaving party' so I hope he hadnt been drinking aswell.

    It really is. If they can get a final together out of this, then I applaud them.

    not exactly going to put him in a good frame of mind for the dance tomorrow - maybe the pap had been given a backhander by Natalie & Vincent or Chris & Ola

    Blimey, Natalie will be fuming! I think I'd rather face the full force of the law than a furious Natalie!

    The producers must be in a room somewhere in Television Centre wondering what on earth isgoing to happen next.
