I've just watched the skate off (fell asleep last night lol) and caught up with this thread and I think it makes sense to have no judges in these first two weeks. The public are effectively voting for those they want IN the competition, not those they want out of it. So at this stage it IS a popularity contest. Then from show 3 onwards we have 12 popular couples whom we know we want to watch, and can sit back and criticise the skating along with the judges.
