Amanda Abbington recently reflected on her Strictly Come Dancing experience, referring to the show as "tough" and "horrible."
Speaking to The Sunday Times during a candid interview, the Sherlock star, who quit the show weeks into the 2023 series, opened up about the misconduct behind-the-scenes once and for all.
Recalling the 'horrible' experience, she explained: "I've had the worst experience. The show was tough and horrible, but the aftermath of it I was not expecting. It's been really brutal and it just hasn't stopped."
"It's been awful, just relentless. Death threats and rape threats for just standing up for something that I thought was wrong," she added.
In addition, Abbington told the outlet that it was crucial for her to speak out on the subject.
The 50-year-old explained: "When I'm in a rehearsal room I make sure that it's a place where everyone feels safe and feels like they're having a nice time. And that courtesy wasn't extended to me."
Clearing up the misconception that she left Strictly because of Giovanni Pernice, the outlet reported that she had a "medical scare" as per her statement, but emphasised that "she was grateful to be given a reason to escape."
