Unpopular SCD opinions

I'm probably going to be opening a can of worms here but just wondering what kinds of differing opinions people have about majority agreements in SCD? I'm referring here to specific dances that the couples have danced to and the judges/public reaction to it, as opposed to evictions and show format etc.

For example people seemed to go crazy about Alesha's Cha Cha Cha but I didn't actually enjoy it and didn't understand why it got such high praise when there was hardly any basic Cha Cha Cha content (imo.)

Anyone willing to be brave enough to share their unpopular opinion?

Me! Gethin's Latin sucked and I was glad he got knocked out of the semi

My Unpopular opinion

Rachel Stevens didn't emote and was basically a technical robot during most of her dances

Gethin's jive was just hideously awful. Why did it get such high marks Matt and Alesha from the same year were also ridiculously overrated and overscored.

My unpopular opinion is that Len was right about Austin's paso. It was a load of noise and stamping. Exciting lighting, exciting music and Austin shouting seem to have blinded the other judges and others They could not see the bare bones of an average dance.

Ooops

My unpopular opinion;

John Sargeant was a fabulous dancer with flawless technique.

I think Flavia got more out of Gethin on tour than Camilla ever did on strictly

John Seargant was actually a very competent ballroom dancer and his latin is certainly not the worst the show has seen.

Lisa Snowdon seemed a perfectly nice, if eager to please, woman!

Don Warrington's tango was one of the best dances of last series and my personal favourite

I quite enjoy "Ask Len".

I am genuinely a bit sad Hayley Holt isn't coming back.

I prefer having two shows at the weekend rather than one.

I basically thought Aleshas latin and ballroom were crap most of the time. she had far too many bent knees when they should have been straight in ballroom... (but matt was very clever to hide it) when he was leading her.

I also didnt think Colin Jackson's dancing was that good. I could never see what others could see...

ok... *ducks for cover..

Well that wouldn't have been hard - dancing the same two routines that Camilla taught him over and over again on the tour as opposed to having one week to prepare two new dances as they did on the show...

I prefer the Sunday results show

ETA as opposed to the Saturday night results show rather than as opposed to the Saturday main show.

You forgot to compliment his flawless technique.

Agree with you........this seems to be a very popular unpopular opinion

Not one of John Sergeant's dances was good- even his Waltz. Never have I seen the judges let go of complete lack of rise and fall before, not to mention ridiculously long opening.

Agreeing on the Alesha and Austin front, and the fact Rachel was actually Rachbot.

Matt Di A should have been kicked out when he stopped dancing in the quarter finals. Ridiculous!

Exactly. Flavia didn't get anything more out of Gethin than Camilla did. Camilla taught him to dance.

Alesha wasn't all that captivating.

Vincent isn't very likeable.
