The show's host Tess Daly asked Craig about his scoring this time around, saying: "Craig you are the only judge who didn't award them a 10 last time. What did you think this time around?"

To which, he replied: "I'm furious actually because I couldn't find anything wrong with it", a response which was met with cheers and applause from the audience.

Craig and his fellow judges, Anton Du-Beke, Motsi Mabuse and head judge Shirley Ballas awarded Fleur and Vito 10s for their performance, landing the dancing pair a top score of 40.

TV star Craig, who joined the judging panel in 2004, is well known by Strictly viewers for his brutal honesty, which means receiving top marks can be difficult but incredibly rewarding for the celebrity contestants.

However, on the night of the Strictly final, all of the finalist reached the top of the leaderboard at some point throughout the night, with Hamza Yassin topping the chart five times followed by Helen Skelton who topped it twice and CBBC star Molly Rainford who topped the scoreboard once.

However by the end of the evening, it was down to the audience to vote for their winner. Cameraman Hamza bagged the vote and claimed the Glitterball trophy, becoming the Strictly champion of 2022.

On his winning moment, Hamza said: "Thank you to everyone out there voting for us. This is the best thing that's ever happened to me."

His professional dance partner Jowita Przystał, who won her first Strictly series said: "He's just a proof that anything is possible. He came here on the show with no dancing experience with pigeon toes and he made it. And I'm so proud of him."
