What is the worst thing Jason Gardiner has ever said on the show? For me, three come to mind.

1. The "faecal matter" comment.
2. "If your opinion still mattered, you'd be on the panel".
3. Accusing Gary Lucy of "playing the little kid card".

I think 2 probably - as it was so insulting to Karen who is the one who really coaches the skaters all week.

PS Comment 3 - although uncalled for - was probably an accurate statement. There is really no need to parade your young daughter on screen every week to get votes - if I recollect the first week we saw her was after the first time Gary had been in the skate off.

Faecal matter closely followed by You're opinion doesn't matter. The little kid one pales into insignificance against some other things he has said over the years.

The "chromosome" comment to Jeff.

No.2 - If your opinion still mattered:

It did make me go: "what did he just say"? BUT on the other hand IMO, what he said is true.
Jason did apologise afterwards (whether he meant it or not, I don't know) and I hope he also apologised backstage because true or not, that comment would have really hurt.

I don't get why anyone would be offended by anything some nobby nobody insecure **** with a failed music career and a 20 grand hair transplant has to say. It's like been grunted at by the local pond life. You just shrug it off and think "so ****ing what"?

Been told you look like faeces by someone who feels they need to spend a living per-annum on having hair shoved through their scalp to look half decent doesn't really strike me as that damaging.

I've remembered a few more.

He used the word ugly when describing Kay Burley, but I can't remember the exact phrase he said.

Of Aggie MacKenzie and her partner - "it was like watching him fling around an OAP".

He also likened Kelly Holmes to a man in drag.

None of the above. For me it's his comment about having had a £35,000 hair transplant:

"I feel so great about how it looks. I felt resentful that I'd had to give in to being bald. It affected me psychologically. I went through self-doubt, depression and self-loathing. I was ashamed of myself."

Just shows how egotistic he is - only thinks of himself. He's insulted every bald man in the world with that comment. Attractiveness comes from within, and he's shown that he will never be attractive.

Definitley. I don't often get offended but that was really rather offensive.

He also once commented about a Duncan and Maria routine saying their arm movements resembled waving pooh around on the end of sticks. Duncan just laughed at him though.

Good post.

Jason .. actually do you know what, I'm not going to waste any of my lunchtime typing up what I actually think of the unctious Mr Gardiner, life is too short ...

the Karen comment.. to me when she turned to Chris and jane and shrugged her arms and said "see?" it was like she was saying "i knew this was what people would think, i told you demoting me off the panel would lead to these remarks"

i felt for her.

Personally I liked his comments on 2 & 3, esp 3.
