Strictly Come Dancing 2011 diva Nancy Dell’Olio has reportedly refused to board a coach the BBC has hired for this weekend’s final – as it doesn’t have a first class area!Bosses will use the vehicle to ferry eliminated contestants to Blackpool’s Tower Ballroom for an appearance on the show.
But while most of the celebs are happy with the plan, Nancy isn’t – and she’s said to have hired a HELICOPTER to take her there instead!
A show source told The Sun: “The BBC can’t splash the cash, even for the celebs. We’ve scraped together enough pennies for your bog-standard British coach.
“None of the stars mind as it’s a free ride and they’ll all be together sharing a few jokes on the way. We told Nancy about our plans but she wasn’t happy. She was like, ‘Darling, I must sit in the first-class compartment’.
“When we replied there was no such thing, well that was that — she was having none of it. She says she’s booking a chopper to get her up there.”
They added: “Let’s hope it doesn’t blow her hair all over the place. It would be awful if she looked a state for our special final.”
The Strictly Come Dancing 2011 final airs this Saturday at 7pm and 9pm on BBC One.
