Indeed... It would also help with getting in more voting revenue IMO.
With the results show being on a Sunday the problem is that a lot of people record the Saturday night show and watch it on Sunday before the results show. This means that they are unable to vote because the voting has been closed.
When I really used to enjoy SCD, Saturday nights were arranged around it. My friends and I would get together to watch the show, (vote) pop out to the pub and for food and return for the results show and have a post mortem of the show afterwards.
There is also such a small window of time for the votes to be cast, that the many that begin to watch it after it has started due to nearly everyone having PVR's, the voting lines have closed.
It's turning more into a childrens programme with it being on so early, and I'm guessing its the little kiddies that like to see granny being thrown across the dancefloor and asking their parents to vote for AW.
What a crying shame that so many people who really enjoyed the dancing appear to be turning off completely, or just not getting into it at all
