To the judges:
The BBC may have told you to big up the souless desperate void of personality that is Donovan because the viewers are toothless imbeciles who can be patronised and told who to support. If you look at parts of this board, you may also feel that their view has been reinforced, but infact, you are wrong.
To insist that a yoda-like creature who places his feet in the right place - sort of - and sweats needy validation just because the production team decided he was the biggest name before the series started is, frankly, insulting.
Yes, he used to poke Kylie - we know, you've wheeled her out and got her frozen face to proclaim how wonderful he is. Yes, he tries oh so hard and is putting the hours in - poor Kristina, what did she do to deserve being stuck with him hour in, hour out?
Yes, he's done some stuff in the West End (with all the convincing acting of a bag of frozen peas) and yes, he was a pop star - even though he was off his face for most of it.
Despite all the reasons you have been given, some issues were not drawn to your attention. In order that you don't continue to look quite so ridiculous, these issues are:
- He is devoid of any personality, whatsoever. His textbook responses to questions are so predictable and make me want to vomit!
- His dances are punctuated by faces that are so sexually predatory that my cat asks to leave the room (not to go outside, but to try to drown herself in her water bowl after feeling so violated).
- His desperation is not a vote winner. Nobody, in the history of the show has won after showing the need to win. We are well aware that his career depends on it. No, he's not said as much, but the rictus grin, the insistance that he loves it so much, that he is dance, that this is the best thing ever in the world and that his children are so proud of him and every other thing he is ticking off the script shouts it like a cartoon klaxon.
- He makes me feel physically sick. No, it's not just the chest hair, the weird face and hair that show he has not aged at all well, or pleading eyes, it just everything about him.
Unbelievably for you all, it is important that I point out to you that the public have minds of their own. Remember Ricky Whittle, Colin Jackson, Pamela Tranny, et al - they didn't win, no matter how much you tried to tell us we should vote for them. I don't necessarily agree that the right people won every series, but, you know what? They won because they had the combination of (some) ability, some dedication and something Jason will never have - likeability. But most of all, they won because the public chose them themselves, not because of your insincere insistance that they were wonderful.
Please stop treating us like we are stupid or our opinions are not valid.
Yours with affection (except for Len who is really annoying me, and Alesha who shouldn't be there)

Note to DOTs: Sorry if there are any spelling mistakes, but I'm so annoyed with the faux praise of Yoda that I've typed at top speed!
Loved the motification of Robbie when he realised he'd grabbed Ola's t!t by accident. Alex was rubbish. Anita - I don't want to see her in that costume again, ever! Enjoyed Chelsee but was disappointed the A frame wasn't there. Grudgingly liked Harry but don't want him to win. Greyson - see above - fast but hardly a technical Charleston. Holly, nice and an improvement, but not sensational.
Swing-a-thon - the less said the better, but at least no BT shoes this year!
