As previously stated. other contestants are being overmarked because Natalie - because of her training - is so good.

So no point complaining about Ben/whoever having a journey. The producers need to overmark others to stop it feeling like a one-horse race which will have viewers reaching switching off.”

Last year was a massively obvious one horse race, and Louis wasn't even that good.

Fake journey too.

People didn't switch off though.

The producers don't need to do anything, they need to see that the judges score correctly.

You may have thought the journey was fake. Clearly millions didn't.

Ha ha ha!

If the producers ensured the judges scored correctly, there would be no competition whatsoever. Natalie would be even further ahead of the pack than she already is.

It would become a one-horse race and the show would become predictable.

And who wants to read a book where they know what the ending will be?

Why would it become a one-horse race? Apparently some people don't like Natalie because she has dance experience, she is smug etc. Not everyone votes on the dancing, it's usually who they like the most.

Exactly - Tom Chambers was hardly the 'best'.

Neither was Darren Gough.

And there's worse.

But if she tops the judges' leader board every week, there's an element of predictability. Bad for business.

How popular she is with the public remains to be seen.

Serenity.

There is no way on earth (thanks to the judges) that she will not end up in the final, we might as well just accept it.

She may not win, but that's neither here nor there. She will most likely be offered a West End show out of it (which she fully deserves) and her career is all but made. Job done.”

Great post. Couldn't agree more.

I really hope that Natalie journey on this show hasn't finished because I will stop watching strictly if she has to pull out.

Yes, me too, I'm not even bothering to watch tonight. I'm watching ice-skating on Eurosport.

They don't hold your place if you compete in sports.

It's dancing - not sport.

Oh yes. Anyone who dares to question her previous training as a dancer is just a 'hater' ... or even a 'jealous hater'.

What's wrong with talking about the facts?

Well said lets deal on facts not cheap jibes which are aimed at Nat every day. All this nonsense about her not being popular where is the evidence.
