Noticed last night that Abbey Clancy was not there to hand over the glitterball trophy, isn't the reigning champ normally there to do this?

I don't think so.

I think that she handed over the glitterball, at the beginning of the series.

Nope, she danced with Aljaz in the launch show, that's the symbolic handover point.

I didn't notice ANY previous winners (or even contestants) - did anyone??

I was looking to see if Rachel Riley was there to support Pasha but didn't see her.

Other years I saw the likes of Ramps, Chris Hollins etc.

Ben Cohen was there.

Rachel was there with Pasha's agent sitting behind the Blue boys !

Oh good, I'm glad. Must look out for them on the re-watch!!

I think I am right in saying that she has not long since had a second child, but she probably wouldn't have been there anyway,

I think it's that she has just announced she is expecting for the second time?

I only found out because the Daily Mail had a picture of him.

I think she is really pretty and appears to be very nice. However, I don't think she was a worthy winner. I think Natalie Gumede should have won.
