The man has no shame. Simply disgusting.
Blimey. He's not justifying murder.

It's a TV talent show, for God's sake.

He can decide to corrupt the show if he wants, but Ofcom will decide if the PAYING voters have been deceived and if so the law will decide that refunds are due.

They haven't been deceived and even IF Ofcom for some stupid reason ruled they had, I see no reason why those who voted deserve refunds. It's their fault for paying to vote when you could do it for free via the app.

To be honest, I think that the people who claim to be "outraged" by this clever woman who trained multiple dogs and not just Matisse and who told the producers this was so but they chose to keep quiet, are barking mad.

If that is all you have to be worried and upset about then you lead very charmed lives.

Get.Over.It.

I would never go on a talent or any sort of reality show because one minute the public love you then BANG you are scum of the earth receiving death threats online! Scary really!
The public love putting someone on a pedestal then tearing them down. They always have!

It's a pity arrests can't be made for fraud conning well meaning members of the public like pensioners and young children out of cash is morally wrong.

Jules didn't con anyone. The law laughs in your face.

This is utter rubbish. She trained the second dog so why doesn't she have the right to use him for the stunt?

Is there still drama over this? I mean come on Jules trained all the dogs that were on stage and performed the tricks, doesn't take away from her talent or the dogs for that matter. I mean theres been no drama about all of Calum Scott's performance of his so called "own take" on songs where he's pretty much claimed their versions as his own. At least Jules actually trained the dogs.

He is feckless this is shameful and an utter disgrace. Cheats should never prosper.
They don't and she isn't one.

Homeward Bound used 4 golden retrievers, 4 American bulldogs and 8 cats to play the same three main stars. 101 Dalmatians used 20 dalmatians to play the main two dogs. Marley & Me had 22 Labradors playing the one dog. Babe was played by 48 different pigs. Nobody complains that Disney or Hollywood dupe them with fake animals. Matisse was a dog acting out a story and for the story to work it had to look like the same dog, just like it would for any story about a dog.

It's fairly clear now that most of the people complaining (at least on here) have ulterior motives. This is the fourth thread the OP has created on the topic while other people are going on about giving the prize to other acts who didn't even make the final for God knows what reason.

I think it's just a case of sour grapes really.

According to the telegraph a grand total of 14 people have complained to Ofcom about the dog switch.

She deserved to win. She trained the dogs, and they obviously knew about it on the show.

Well I for one am utterly outraged!

Wait, Charlotte was played by a real spider right? One that sounded a lot like Julia Roberts?

At last somebody with some sense - well done Simon
Yes, there were other dogs used in the semi-final but Matisse was the main dog and she still trained them. No problem with it at all.

Well, it was filmed over 48 days and the crew got hungry you see although they were getting a bit bored of roast pork after having it 47 days in a row.

It's a shame vexatious complainants can't be charged with wasting public money.

I'm starting to think that some of the posters complaining are members of or related to the other acts, some a bit too outraged over something that in all honesty doesn't affect them in the slightest.

I'm afraid it's true. Even more shocking, superdog Lassie, known for her remarkable skills of getting Timmy out of the well, giving help to anyone who needs it and performing all manner of brave, difficult and dangerous tasks....didn't do any of her fight scenes, she had a stunt double to stop her hair getting messed up! Even more scandalous, she wasn't even a she!! She was a he all along and so was every single dog whose ever played her (oh yes, nine different dogs have played Hollywoods most famous furry film star) , because male collies have a thicker heavier coat that looks more impressive on the big screen!!

And the faux outrage threads keep coming. It's a tv show for crying out loud. If you want to get so overheated about something why not about the Debacle of FIFA?
To be fair, people who don't like football can just say back to you "it's just football"
