Given the BBC’s charter requirement for impartiality, and given that this was a light entertainment programme rather than a news programme, I don’t think it’s that weird at all.
Impartiality doesn't mean you need to avoid even presenting the main facts of an event because a person in that event expressed a point of view.
That would be impractical.
We saw plenty of political statements at the BAFTAs last year.
Personally I agree with OP that cutting somone altogether this year was weird, you don't; I'll agree to disagree.
