Strictly Come Dancing star Will Bayley has said he suffered serious injury while performing a jump on the BBC’s flagship show and has claimed there was “no duty of care”.

The Paralympian has said producers were told the jump from a table during a routine was too dangerous but he was encouraged to do it anyway and after he was injured show bosses made him feel like it was his fault.
