Someone on here must have done the maths for this already to save my brain from working it out..
From the judges score ranking, and who they beat , can you calculate the minimum position Scott and Judy must have got in the televote to beat the others?
Also please explain your working!
thanks

Judges' points
Simon - 6
Thom - 5
Scott - 3
Judy - 2

If Simon came last with the public with just 1 point, Scott would need at least 4 public points and Judy 5 to overtake him, as if there's a tie on the combined leaderboard then the public vote takes precedence.

This week:

Judy - must have had a minimum of 5
Scott - 4

(that's if Simon had 1, Thom 2)

So there may be some truth that Judy is getting 1 in 5 of the televote (Daily mirror)

Must have been a very distorted vote to get the bottom 3 all out of the dance off.

No, it means that she was at least on 8th place in the public vote. Also note that the daily mirror was also talking about a public vote in week 1 (so, the article was written by someone who clearly didn't bother to research the basics).

Can't do the maths but we can say they are more popular than Simon and Mark (of those left in the competition).

I don't think we learned anything more about Mark this week apart from that he can dance a samba. The order in which names are read out does not reflect their actual total (although the producers probably pick a penultimate pair that could be under threat just to increase the tension).

But we know from last week that he is probably not pulling in the votes as much as Scott, Judy et al.

The Judges vs Votes the audience, should be shaken up.

A new and realistic balance should be found.

The judges (ie the producers) have more power than the viewers at the moment. They get to decide the leaderboard and then they decide the result of the dance-off. Add-in the effect of music choices, order of dance, type of dance, edited VTs on ITT etc and the producers have the current balance of power.

Until last year, I'd have agreed with you but then Abbey Clancy happened and all the reality rules went out of the window. So now... (I probably still agree with you actually )

An at least one other person is getting fewer votes than Judy.
