Tens

I know this is a common moan, but despite some really good performances, no dance tonight deserved 10's (imo), in fact, no dance this series has deserved 10's (imo).

Even though I felt the dancing standard had really improved tonight all round, the 10's they did give just really didn't mean much to me.

I normally pay attention to board position, but they are gonna have to mark out of 11 at this rate.

    I think the 10's were deserved tonight. The fact that nobody got a perfect score of 40 proved nobody was completely perfect.

    Exactly - Craig (rarely gives 10's) and I think that for once the judges got it right :)

    I think tonight more than ever the dances deserved 10s (if you compare to previous weeks)

    I don't give much weight to 10s unless they're from Craig. Alesha and Bruno have devalued the perfect score by handing them out like confetti.

    I suspect the last 2 series have been overmarked

    The judges rather shot themselves in the foot by starting with 7's and 8's for Robbie. Everyone else did some of their best performances to date and they had nowhere to go with their scores. I am amazed we have ended up with no ties on the leaderboard though.

    Tens are a bit like the pound since decimalization. They have less value every year.

    The judges have obviously lowered their standards this series!
