Well news for Alesha: your being on Strictly upset me.

BBC please bring on a credible judge and if poss Arelene. Really missing Arlene and cannot watch with Alesha as a 'judge' she has no clue.

Wouldn't have employed Alesha myself, however she has pretty much cemented herself in the role now, so we have to give her credit where credit is due. Think about it if Arlene had of stayed scd would have had ofcom on their backs.

Alesha isn't to blame the bosses are for hiring her in the first place and her agent has certainly ensured that she stays on the panel. Mark Thompson doesn't have a clue and dosen't care about the audience, but cares more about the money instead. BBC are a business but they seem arrogant and give the customer contempt.

As a true fan of the show, reckon Alesha like Len is to blame for Anns prolonged stay in the competition. What I reckon is that Karen Hardy needs to be on the panel and the bosses should take note of it. They need to deliver on this without fail.

Would love it if Bruno and Len got their marching orders as they seem to be in the job for money rather than being commited to the job. We would like some fairness to the bbc please.

Yay, the forum has come full circle!

I am critical of Alesha as a judge on SCD - but I am glad that she was not upset no one deserves that - that said I think it is a bad move for her pop career and the show - as for it not beng her fault about being appointed I agree but I do think she needs to ask searching questions before signing to anything -the fact the BBC did not tell her about their plans for Arlene - well that damaged Alesha big style- yet she still works for them- I want Alesha ad Bruno replaced - but I fear that we are stuck with them

If only we were customers - customers have the option of withdrawing their patronage. We don't. That's why the BBC is so famous for their arrogance and, you're right, contempt for their er, "customers".

Poor you. Moving on....

LOL

I think she's quite right not to let bitchiness affect her. It's what I'd do in that situation.

Don't believe I am stalking, just saying what I believe in.

Of course the criticism upset her. I think she said as much in a few interviews last year.

I'm sure we're stuck with her for the minute. However, Alesha's marking is a bit of a joke now. She seems to award everyone an 8 just for turning up. Bruno is just as bad.

She seems to be doing well in a twitter poll at the moment.

It seems that looks can get you far in life. I think that's a sad reflection on society.

Of all of them Len is the one that needs retiring, but not if we were to get (Miss Me Me) Karen instead

At ths stage I'd give Karen the job of judging and bbc ought to have faith in her. She isn't as soft as people think, so we need a better balance of judges.

Just find her more irritating than ever Alesha could be Would far rather see a completely new face.

What is she on about, I read interviews saying she was crying over the comments she read after her judging debut. Why is she lying now?

Karen is busy in other commitments, I don't personally find her irritating. In actual fact I find her very articulate, particularly on itt. We should hold on to the fact Karen knows what she is doing and reckon she would be a good influence on Alesha.
