He'll probably just give everyone the same score now Ann has gone and save himself the trouble of trying to work out who actually danced best.

I have to post in this thread despite the fact that I realise everyone has already had their say and I'm the last to post. I completely agree with all the sentiment that has gone before. As an example of his utter crapness and inconsistency he marked Gavin (13 mistakes that I counted in a pretty simple routine) the same as Kara (2 mistakes in a bloody tricky routine). The insanity of that is unfathomable. If he used a wider range of scores then he wouldn't come across as such an imbecile. The contempt that the majority of the posters on this forum have for him is staggering and I truly wish someone would make him aware of his current position in peoples minds. Surely the producers must know how his reputation has suffered over the last 2 series? Is he being told to be the a**hole that people love to hate? I find it an odd role for him to take.

Thanks but to be fair Paul I'd have bet my house on you agreeing with me!
If there's one person who has consistently agreed with me on Len Badman it's you.

Len is the hardest judge to please, because he changes his mind about what is and isn't acceptable to him from week to week, and often from couple to couple. Personally I think Brucie's holding up better than Len these days, and I'd like to see him retire 'gracefully' after this year if I'm honest.

Len the voice of reason? More like the voice of the ex-bus driver who lives with his alsatian and appears irregularly to pile brown bottles outside his front door for recycling. Also known for his propensity to say inappropriate things in polite company, and even more for unleashing the Terror that in contained within Sprouts.

Len has always overmarked sportsmen. Arlene got a lot of flack for flirting with the men, but at least she didn't give them extra marks because she found them attractive.
Len has a huge chip on his shoulder about men who dance potentially being seen as too effeminate or camp, so he gives extra marks to the more "masculine" men. His 9 for Scott's Rumba was a total joke; a 6 would have been generous for that crap dance. He should wear a big sign saying "I'm not a fruit. I only tolerate gay people". That would be more honest than his marking. |

Is Scott a quair? If he looks like a quair and sounds like a quair, he's probably a quair. He's married of course...
