An additional fan shared, "Seeing Argus Filch in the audience at Strictly has made me smile the most I’ve smiled in a week. It’s the simple things."
Clarifying Bradley's presence, co-host Claudia Winkleman informed the audience that he was there to support his close friend Nigel Harman, affectionately referring to him as "a wonderful part of my life."
As it turns out, Harman and Bradley share a long-standing friendship, having previously worked together in a production of "The Caretaker" back in 2008.
