I suspected that when the first allegations came to light (when he appeared to have been inappropriately touching the professional dancer), the dancer in question was in a tricky position. If she acknowledged that this sort of behaviour had been a problem for her, it would damage the reputation of Strictly, and possibly lead to its demise. Then she, and all the dancers and other people involved in the programme, would be out of a job. However, the look of disgust on her face in one of the sections of filming seemed to tell the story accurately.
I too had never heard of the expression "spit roast", but of course looked it up. How absolutely vile and disgusting.
I tend to agree with the poster. It seems there are more men that we would imagine who think in this way. They may appear innocuous but, on the quiet, they have some horrible views about women. The many men in France who raped an unconscious woman, at her own husband's instigation, no doubt appeared perfectly ordinary. It's a sad state of affairs but I guess it has been ever thus.
