Jake is a ringer!
He had previous dance training at state school, so unfair on the rest!!!!
By the way, this is a tongue in cheek thread. But it's unfair how the good looking young contestants, usually females, get hammered for this and nothing is said about him dancing previously ![]()

Yes, you are right of course. There are bound to be ringers of both sexes because of the celebrity nature of the show, but people are somehow less forgiving of the female ones. I think the phenomenon is true in other aspects of society, too, so SCD is no different to the norm.
I think the presence of ringers makes for more amazing dances, so I personally like it when a ringer pulls of something like Jake's Salsa or Kara's nearly everything, for the entertainment value. If a non-ringer has a genuine 'journey' and ends up being nearly as good as ringers, I'd be more inclined to support them more, but I wouldn't like to watch a load of poor or mediocre dancers week after week with no touch of brilliance whatsoever. |

I can't see any dance training in his profile, where is it? All I can see is drama classes.

What sort of state school?
![]() ![]() ![]() Also, I didn't get my info from Shimmy Jimmy, someone on here pointed it out last week. Mind you, Jac Jossa said he has never danced before so who knows. Just pointing out how people pick and choose who to pick on. |

All I can see is he went to Anna Scher theatre school which by looking at it, I haven't heard of it personally, but the website only states acting, drama and improv and no mention of dance lessons.

I'm not attacking him for it by the way, I don't mind if someone has had a little bit of training though I understand why some people have thought that some contestants have an unfair advantage. |

If you're so bored with talk about ringers, don't come in the thread. It says ringer in the title.

Maybe whoever stated he had danced before was wrong. Maybe Shimmy Jimmy is also wrong.

Some of my favourites have been ones with some training, I prefer good dancing above the starting from scratch thing, though don't get me wrong I love the unexpected like Mark R, Colin Jackson and Austin. Anyway, I thought how good and confident he was tonight so I looked up his training for myself to see where he went, but couldn't see any dance in his past. |

Anna Scher is a really famous stage school and has been around for yonks (for some reason I think Pauline Quirke went there). These days it's quicker to say who hasn't been to stage school or its like.

I couldnt care less who had a bit of training , its a lot easier to watch Jake than to endure Judy barely putting one foot in front of the other
