Nah, not really. Try it yourself and see.
As for what other contestants have to do, you surely have to direct your questions at someone else.

No thanks, no intention of going on the track especially if any aggressive Australian women around on bikes!

I voted for option 3. Whilst JS did everything tongue in cheek, he did it with dignity which covered a multitude of errors. Victoria just seems too wobbly.

It's obvious she isn't the worst dancer, so why post this poll?

Victoria is nothing like JS and it's a bit much to even compare them.

Some people just like attacking contestants, probably were bullies at school. I can't stand Lisa and it was even stronger against Richard but I just ignore them.

She's also quite good at some dances, just not at others. He was consistently bad. She tries and trains a lot. He didn't try much, built the character of being someone who couldn't dance. spent a lot of time building a vote up for it. and rode the reaction to the judges giving him appropriate marks for all he could.

She's not been the worst dancer in this series, and of John was in this series he would be a closer contender than her (imo).

i can't take to her and feel she's a bit of a cold fish, all a bit meh to be honest.

I disagree that John was consistently bad - imo for his age he did do some decent and entertaining dances and he did put the effort in to begin with so much so that he lost weight, I rewatched some of his dances a few weeks ago - in most of his ballroom he actually did quite well - I remember his first dance the waltz got really positive feedback from the judges - so he wasn't always voted in on the basis of not being able to dance. The Latin was always going to be a problem for him because of his age and weight but he did a very entertaining Paso.

The problem started when better dancers than him were getting booted off and the judges took out their anger on him! John perhaps took advantage of that, but I don't think anyone really covered themselves in glory when it got to that stage!

I'd argee with that assessement - foxtrot aside I don't actually think JS was actually that bad on the ballroom side - his latin sucked but then so did a lot of people's that year - Rachel's latin was technically pretty good but lacked oomph, Austin had a couple of great routinues but was mostly mediocre on the latin side although he did the ccc with a lot of energy, Tom was the opposite of Rachel on the latin side - he went for it with great gusto wasn't always great technically and I was put right off his paso but cape twirling that looked like he was wiping his bum with it and gurn city going on in his face, Lisa's latin was sometimes abysmal and the better stuff was so utterly over-marked it put you right off, I loved Cherie but she wasn't great at going faster than a walking pace, Christine's was hit and miss - like Tom there was a lot of energy but not always technique - except for the paso where she just sucked and Jodie's was pretty bad too with the honourable exception weirdly of the jive - considering it's not a dance which suits the tall and she had a bad cold when she did it - which was fun but not technically amazing.

I wonder if someone in the know could add up their respective scores at this stage and produce and average, so we could compare them objectively.

You've got your poll result, so move on.

It's not the one you hoped for though is it?

Victoria is a much better dancer.

But I would rather watch John Sargeant dance.

John provided the best entertainment SCD has ever had, The producers have been trying to emulate it ever since without success.

You and Vickys cheeks need to get a room

Anyway, vote away, I am all for it, I honestly can't wait to see her car crash Jive and am especially looking forward to her Viennese Waltz - I have money on Brendan spinning her so fast she falls over. Will be hilarious!
