= big wigs at ITV told him say sorry or else.
the fact he added all the extras says it all...isnt it really the case characters like Jason need to keep going more OTT by the year? his comments the other night didnt even make sense it was said for the reaction its got maybe to distract people from his 2nd job of 2nd rate fashion 'advisor' on This morning.. without doubt the most Stupid job ever given to someone who clearly is reading off a card other peoples work |

Dannella will not say anything negative about Jason, she has after all been teachers pet since day 1
Robin glossed over Jasons comments on This Morning as did Phillip The only one who had the balls to say anything was Tanna and she didnt have to be vile to make her point, she pointed out that Jason could make comments without getting personal and that he was getting too personal I'm among those who wasn't offended by what Jason said. I'm more offended it kept Sharron out of the skate off. I'm with those who think ITV will be loving all this. |

Jason has got just what he wanted.......publicity. THAT is why he says this ridiculous things and believe me it is SCRIPTED. WHY doesn't one of the celebs, not one of the celebs, confront him because they know it is part of the show. We had the Friday night programme announce that Sharon was going to face Jason and it was nothing. No confrontation at all, just Sharon mumbling about how upset her daughter was. Until the competitors tell the producers to STOP the dramatics and concentrate on the skating and dancing this sort of nonsense will keep happening. Just like the judges "battles" on X Factor and the "romances" and battles on Strictly. It is treating the public like idiots but it seems to work. Look at the headlines and comments just Jason's remark has achieved for him!! Also the contestants who are critised by Jason get more telephone votes-------i.e. more more for ITV!!!!

Does Teacher's Pet mean not being rubbish and having judges say so?

They know what he is like so why do they keep asking him back year after year? He spoils the show.

I agree with the comments people have made about him spoiling the show. It's not pleasant viewing, all that booing and vile remarks. It is unnecessary, whatever happened to light entertainment? This is an early evening weekend show, not Jackass. The show has degenerated in my humble opinion, it's like the skaters are on in between the judges, and the focus has all turned to the panel now. Ridiculous.
I wouldn't waste a penny voting on it either, I'm not lining ITVs coffers any more if this is the only rubbish they can put out. |

I'm convinced this was a publicity stunt.
Rather than being angry or worried, I suspect the producers of the show are rubbing their hands with glee. That's the trouble with a lot of TV these days. Ratings and publicity are paramount, whilst morals and values take a back seat. This is the problem I face - while I'd really like to show ITV what I think of them, I can't think of a way to do it that would make an iota of difference to their thinking. That's a lot of thinking, but I hope you get my drift

It probably will in reality, unfortunately. That's the way these things usually work. Same as with the X Factor - every controversy makes more people tune in...
Grrrrr. *goes off for sulk about the state of the world*

Oh the irony of this comment Jason made about Nicky. Quote:
Even fellow judge Nicky Slater, 51, wasn't safe. "He thinks giving lower scores will guarantee him more camera time," said Jason

He's just apologised on This Morning, straight to camera, saying he only commeted on what he saw on the performance and in no way was directing the comments at Sharron herself.
Then he gave a nice smug grin. |

Then he gave a nice smug grin. I've watched the clip again of him criticising Sharon, and he did weave his nasty remarks to the way Sharon dance. Not to say that excuse him for using the colour of her dress to practically call her 'sh1t' of course... |

Create some controversy, get people talking and compel them to tune in next week for the next installment of drama... |

But that's not why I tune in! I bet that's not why any of us on here tune in! I tune in to watch some skating by some people in cool costumes! How can I convince ITV that I am not keeping their ratings alive because of the Wicked Witch of the Panel?

![]() But there will be a lot of viewers who love all the (contrived) disharmony amongst the judges and the controversial comments that come out of Jason's mouth and the celebs and skaters' reactions to them......they will find it entertaining. |

I don't like the tone and content of some of his remarks to the contestants, and in these recent incidents, those directed at two of the women are particularly objectionable. It is completely unacceptable to address comments in the terms he has to Sharron Davies and Tana Ramsay. Is he a misogynist?
The programme could dispense with him quite easily. He doesn't enhance it at all. He is just plain nasty, without wit or style or insight. A cheap attention seeker. But he should not be on the TV getting the attention he craves at the expense of women whom he chooses to insult and bully by virtue of his position. His so-called apology was cheap and unpleasant as well, leaving a nasty whiff of insincerity and disdain. |
