The TV host Justin Lee Collins claims Bruce Forsyth was "very rude" to him when they worked together on Strictly Come Dancing.
He told the BBC: "As legendary as he is — I grew up loving him, as did my parents, as did my grandparents — he wasn't particularly nice to me on that show.
"I loved him and they do say never meet your idols because you're always going to be disappointed and in the case of Bruce I was disappointed. He was very rude."
He also said it was time for the 81-year-old host to step down in favour of a younger presenter.
