Goodman: 'Sergeant was wrong to quit'

BBC

Len Goodman has said that he would not have left Strictly Come Dancing if he had been in John Sergeant's position.

Sergeant today announced that he is quitting the show over fears that he could win as a result of his popularity rather than ability.

However, Strictly judge Goodman said he disagreed with the decision, telling the BBC: "I've only just heard. I think it's sad, but there was a chance he could've won the competition.

"If it had been me, I'd have stayed in."
