How ridiculous , Ben was fantastic , those amazing lifts etc . Sexiest man on tv , and a great non professional dancer .

To many lifts to cover up some poor dancing.

I think he was over marked.

completle agree, scored less than Mark,

Mark and Susanna were overmarked. I think Ben was marked appropriately.

Scored fairly for once. It reminded me of Peter Shilton in parts

Exactly , how can Mark be a better dancer than Ben ? Ridiculous .

LOL!

I second this. His leg movements just looked so lazy and small, especially next to Christina

This is a joke thread? OK.

At last he was marked fairly. I'm getting tired of Kristina's choreography and watching Ben throw her around.

This is Kristina down to a 'T', Throw ME around the floor, forget dancing, get the standing ovation, and the guilble British public will vote in their millions.

Overmarked, as was Mark. Dance off for both

He was slightly overmarked imo.

Ben I is big block of wood, with the most glorious face and smile.

Same old thing repeated over and over by Kristina's appalling choreography . He walks or stands while she flings herself about and into him .

First week he's had the marks he should have had.

I don't think he was undermarked to be honest

Agreed -Lifts were lovely but Kristina danced around him a lot and he lay on the floor , he was over marked, again

Agree but there was nothing slight about it. He was definitely overmarked imo. All their dances are the same. Has he done a dance yet where he hasn't thrown Kristina around his neck or flipped her in the air and caught her to take attention away from his non dancing.

Mark is actually a better dancer than Ben. Mark has had to learn steps and he has rhythm and character. He has to work for his scores by actually participating in a routine. He can't just stand in place and wait to throw Iveta around to get 8s and 9s like Ben does with Kristina.

Way overmarked imo but then again all the couples were overmarked as they have been all series.

I'm sorry but Ben has not been undermarked yet! This is not strictly come weightlifting

I think Ben's mark's were fair.

The problem is that Mark was over-marked,(as he has been all series and still was tonight, when the judges are supposedly getting tougher) so it make's Ben's position seem worse than it really is.

this thread must be a joke..right?

Well I think he is. It's all smoke and mirrors with Ben.

Ben has improved much more than Mark compared to where they started.

I feel the judges were fair in giving marks on Ben's performance tonight.

The trouble with Ben is that he's too bulky to make a decent dancer. His legwork is still terrible.
