What are the judges smoking?! Ridiculous and inconsistent scoring...

I find Jamelia's personality a bit annoying but come on, there's something a bit fishy when she scored lower than Mr. Botox O'Donnell & Ainsley Harriott?!

Botox has good timing but that's it...he literally has no life in his body and has had so much plastic surgery that his face no longer works properly.

Ainsley has an awesome personality but he's like a Black Uncle Fester trying to dance. He's absolutely f**king terrible.

Jamelia, on the other hand, has obvious rhythm, natural timing, some athleticism and sex appeal. Yes, there were minor technical issues but her dance was far superior to Botox and Ainsley. She's certainly one of the better dancers in the competition...could go a long way with refinement.

I wonder what batsh*t crazy scores will occur next week.

well the judges Always overscore and underscore some couples.

Georgia underscored, i would've given a 7

Peter overscored, i would've given a 6

I think expectations play a significant part in the judges' marks.

Personally I don't agree with it in principle because that's partly what the public vote is for BUT I suspect if they marked everyone on the same scale the voters would react strongly against it.

RTV is very manipulative like that so you need to be careful with the audience. If the judges were more anonymous or if they changed every week better judging would ensue I think. As it is, the judges are characters in the show and part of the pantomime.

I'm very glad Jamelia isn't getting bonus points for being sexy to be honest, she dances like she's just doing whatever the frig she wants (although given Tristan's terrible choreography I can see why she might want to...) and is doing it pretty badly.

Whatever it is they are smoking, Len should cease immediately. It's affecting his "grand entrance."

He seems less than steady on his feet compared to the other three and his attempts at "dancing in," seem ponderous and awkward, but then he is getting on a bit.

I thought Ainsley was better and I wouldn't say that Jamelia was one of the better dancers.

Nah, botoxed DoD and 'unsexy' Uncle Ainsley still outdanced Jamelia. That's how disapointing she was. I'm no expert but even I could tell her Cha Cha walks were crap. She got the scores she deserved as did the two guys.

I thought that as well, and her face like thunder for the rest of the show didn't help.

Jamelia was lousy, as was O'Botox.

Yea, sorry that you think Jamelia was unfairly marked, but her technique did not simply have 'minor technical issues'. It was non-existent. Performance wise it was good, but if you know anything about cha cha, you'll know why she scored so low. It was painful to watch.

Couldn't agree more. I even made the Uncle Fester comparison about Ainsley H! I was amazed the judges didn't pick up on his painfully hunched shoulders - maybe it's a medical thing? Lovely bloke but his stiff upper body and OTT gestures made him hard to watch.

Anyway, I too wondered what more Jamelia could have done to impress the judges. For a second week dance it looked pretty good to me, ignorant as I am of the finer points of cha cha cha
