Strictly Come Dancing judge Craig Revel Horwood says he experienced a series of incidents during a holiday in Spain. Multiple outlets report that he alleges he was stabbed during an attack in Madrid. The reports also say he had jewellery stolen during the incident.

According to the accounts, after the attack he was later strip-searched before leaving the country. Several sources describe the search as being linked to drug-smuggling concerns, though the specific details of who carried out the search and the circumstances are not consistent in the coverage beyond that general description.

The reports present Revel Horwood’s comments as personal disclosures rather than independently verified findings in the articles. The outlets vary mainly in emphasis, with some focusing on the stabbing and others adding the claim of a razor-blade assault, while all mention the strip-search allegation and the alleged theft. The story centres on his account of what happened while travelling.
