Craig: I only just noticed Harry's Left Foot?
While watching ITT earlier Craig Mentioned the reason that he did not Give Harry and Aliiona a 10 on saturday because he has a lazy left Foot and has only just notice, if that was the case why didn't he give Harry and Aliona Less Marks in the past weeks then
![]() Is that got be the worst Excuse in Stricly History no to give some a ten because he only just notice someone has a little problem, is that a bit petty on Craig's parts, Harry had a great Dance and desreve 4 10s imo

Yes, and Fewer Marx was his similar, but not twin brother!

Harry's ballroom hold right hand...I wondered why it hadnt been mentioned before, especially as Craig has a thing about thumbs again I'm guessing it's because there were other things to work on.Len and Bruno often "ignore" small mistakes in marking the overall dance, Craig never seems to. The technical standard that all the sleb dancers achieve is astonishing given they've never done this before, and is one of the joys of the show. |

Harry can't help his foot turning inwards; I can't do basic maths for toffee; some posters don't get the grammatical niceties, and others can't / don't spell.
Mark us down as deficient and it'll do exactly nothing to remedy the situation. Or be tolerant. So long as you can understand, why fuss? He danced pretty well with his pigeon toes. |

Craig used to say the same about Gethin's foot and never gave him a 10 for ballroom apart from in the xmas special.

I was just about to say that he said exactly the same about Gethin!
Personally, I think it's ludicrous to mark an amateur contestant down on physiology. A pigeon foot might mean you'd never make a professional dancer in the Real World, but it's not something you can do anything about. You might as well rate someone down for having a big nose. Still, it's all grist to the entertaining Craig mill, and I don't spose Harry will commit hara-kiri over it. |

I can quite imagine Craig has only just noticed Harry's feet, given that he's been gawping at his torso and backside for weeks.

I did notice Craig came up with another excuse for not giving a ten by the time he was on ITT. |

He should perhaps rather have said: I HAVE noticed this before but refrained from comment as I thought there were other priorities but now....blah blah blah
He obviously hadn't just that minute noticed it! |

Ricky had the same problem. Ridiculous to suggest he can work on the problem during the competition.

I just think Craig is pushing Harry (and Aliona) because he wants to get the best out of them. He is never exactly lavish with the 10s anyway.

He was obviously too busy looking at his chest, hope that he will now notice his awful free hand and get Aliona to correct that too.

as far as I can see, and as a Harry fan I've studied the dances
Harry was slightly pidgeon toed in the foxtrot- but it wasnt mentioned - probably because there were other technical points to work on,like his top line.In both the waltz and tango his feet look fine to me. Harry's ballroom hold right hand...I wondered why it hadnt been mentioned before, especially as Craig has a thing about thumbs again I'm guessing it's because there were other things to work on.Len and Bruno often "ignore" small mistakes in marking the overall dance, Craig never seems to. The technical standard that all the sleb dancers achieve is astonishing given they've never done this before, and is one of the joys of the show. As in, like a ballet dancer. You just get clips here or there where he'd start twirling or try and instigate a dance or ballet routine with Dougie. He comes across as naturally quite graceful and has the right body size and shape to carry it off by being neat but powerful. Maybe it's something that's interested him for some time and he certainly flows easily in his movements. |

Except Ricky DID work on it. And they commented on him having turnout around the time he got to the quarter finals. Bit of bad luck Craig only mentions it NOW to Harry but Harry also has a lot more time on his hands than Ricky did. Ricky was bow-legged and had a nasty leg injury that doctors said would leave him paralysed. So even with low practice time, bow-legs and dodgy knees, he still managed to fix his feet. So maybe Harry will too.
