To be fair thats because doing Suzanne's routines and some of Beth's moves (like tonights) would be too dangerous for her. To be even fairer. dan just doesn't seem to be able to do the lifts other pros can - even Lukacs, who isn't that big, is doing better with Beth.
Its not her fault - its the judges not doing anything about the problem thats so obvious - they have all now mentioned it. The answer is to allocate a routine a maximum mark based on its difficulty - and then mark how its performed - not mark the choregraphy. music. or acting, and forget any skating.
