    To many lifts to cover up some poor dancing.

    I think he was over marked.

    Mark and Susanna were overmarked. I think Ben was marked appropriately.

    I second this. His leg movements just looked so lazy and small, especially next to Christina

    At last he was marked fairly. I'm getting tired of Kristina's choreography and watching Ben throw her around.

    This is Kristina down to a 'T', Throw ME around the floor, forget dancing, get the standing ovation, and the guilble British public will vote in their millions.

    Overmarked, as was Mark. Dance off for both

    Same old thing repeated over and over by Kristina's appalling choreography . He walks or stands while she flings herself about and into him .

    I don't think he was undermarked to be honest

    Agree but there was nothing slight about it. He was definitely overmarked imo. All their dances are the same. Has he done a dance yet where he hasn't thrown Kristina around his neck or flipped her in the air and caught her to take attention away from his non dancing.

    Mark is actually a better dancer than Ben. Mark has had to learn steps and he has rhythm and character. He has to work for his scores by actually participating in a routine. He can't just stand in place and wait to throw Iveta around to get 8s and 9s like Ben does with Kristina.

    I think Ben's mark's were fair.

    The problem is that Mark was over-marked,(as he has been all series and still was tonight, when the judges are supposedly getting tougher) so it make's Ben's position seem worse than it really is.

    Well I think he is. It's all smoke and mirrors with Ben.

    Ben has improved much more than Mark compared to where they started.

    I feel the judges were fair in giving marks on Ben's performance tonight.

    The trouble with Ben is that he's too bulky to make a decent dancer. His legwork is still terrible.
