.....to factor in the difficulty of the dance ??
It seems to me that every week, Ricky Whittle attempts more difficult moves in his routines, yet other celebrities play safe.
Last week I seem to remember CRH saying that Ricky had attempted something in his dance that no-one had tried in any other series, and because he hadn't got it quite right, he was marked down. Then, Ali got 40 for not a very risky dance. I don't see how you can compare a woman dancing a VW to a man dancing a Tango, when one is far more difficult than the other.
Perhaps some kind of 'difficulty factor' that you see in diving competitions would be fairer.
EG multply the score by 2.3 for a man leading a Tango, and 1.7 for a woman being dragged around in a VW. (not a camper van)

Just a thought
