I cant see James keeping quiet on next weeks ITT

Nor should he - that was absolutely ridiculous.

Nor should he. Ridiculous.

No, neither can I. he didn't last year when he went out while John Sargeant stayed in!

But TBH I think Bruno's scathing and unnecessary assault on Craig's performance ensured the worst dancer got through/

Snap!!

The real problem is the judges trying to manipulate the results though. It only riles the voting public. Zoe and James were by no means the worst dancers but they were ludicrously overmarked tonight and last week.

An absolute disgrace - I voted for Zoe and James twice.


Fair play to the pair of them for exiting gracefully, but just wait for Mondays ITT.

Thats three in a row for James now.

Gaby
Cherie
Zoe

All 3 girls went way before their time to go.

I totally agree.

I couldn't watch the wrong couples in the dance off. Ridiculous!

I'm not sure about ITT but James handled himself very well at the end of the show and I thought he was a true gent.

I thought that. I haven't always liked James much but I do feel sorry for him, he gives it his all yet is always eliminated in the early/mid stages.

He seemed very upset for Zoe and of course disappointed for himself but he didn't show any anger and both of them were very dignified about it all. How sad that this has had to overshadow the many wonderful performances tonight.

Are all people really voting for a couple to stay in just because a judge makes a negative comment? How completely childish.

If I remember rightly James did say something about John Sargeant. I do agreed with you though about Bruno's attack on Craig. It was totally uncalled for and when the audience booed I just knew Craig would get through.

Agreed.

He can't be blamed for it though.
For Zoe/James and Ali/Brian to be in the bottom two was ridiculous.

Its like deja vu of John Sergant last year.

For what it's worth..I'm trying to keep my bias in check

I agree, he was lovely, but then he was last year when Cherie was voted off until he got onto ITT... Can't help but think that someone will have a word before then to stop him from complaining too much!

yeah but his inability to keep quiet is why people like me still can't stand him despite it being many years since 'georgina-gate'

it's bad form to whinge about not getting through because you were 'better' than other dancers and it's all subjective

I personally found his choreography lacking sparkle and excitement - perhaps he needs to look at his own performance before blaming the public for their idiocy....

It has got to that stage of the show when you are running out of couples who should go. Admittedly Craig should have gone this week, but by next week it will be starting to affect people who aren't too bad. This happens every year that one of the very top acts go out prematurely. Such a shame that they were the two acts tonight

I agree!

The reason he is gone is because he mouths off too much and he is probably the only pro that the public (as a general rule) actually want to see gone. His perogative, but lets see if he has learned this year (because his final speech tonight made it look as if he had).

Additionally, he knows Ola is still in with a pretty good chance of winning but she is not with one of the best dancers. Will he really bite the hand that feeds this week and ask the public to vote for the best dancers?

Can`t remember much about ITT but I thought James was cross because JS threw the towel in after all Kristina`s hard work with him and the public voting to keep him in week after week.

Perhaps I have it wrong ?

Except that, unlike Craig, John Sargent was entertaining!
