I just wanted a rant about how awful I think tonight's leaderboard is!
IMO the judges are trying to boost the celebs who they expect to struggle for votes - Simon and Mark mainly - by pushing them up the board at the expense of others. Jake was slaughtered by the judges despite another strong performance, Steve even more so despite being really fun to watch and making a huge effort. Even Pixie was a bit underrated I thought. I don't know what these people need to do!
I think the judges are putting a few people like Jake in danger to try and get their fans to vote in the hope it will force Judy and/or Scott to the dance-off, but that seems a very dangerous game to play and I have a horrible feeling it could backfire very badly. I'll be really annoyed if we get something like a Jake V Caroline bottom 2 but it honestly looks plausible based on those ridiculous scores!
At the other end of the scale though, I do like Frankie... but 10? And Craig's first 9 of the series? My mum kept commenting on her head not being that well positioned, yet not one judge noted it... bizarre.
