I always love her appearances on ITT (OK, apart from that dodgy dice rolling segment the other day!) and find her critiques to be really useful and easy for non-experts to get their heads around.

Why can't she be on the judging panel?

Her and Ian are my favourite bits of ITT - and they are great pros to deliver those segments! I would love to have either (or both) of them on the judging panel tbh.

I think she's an absolute bell.

Adore ?? I think that's putting it a bit strongly ! Admire yes, but hardly adore !

Yep, I love her.
As a very poor dancer myself I hang on her every word.

I like to hear her crit, she has interesting things to say and I respect her.

She annoys me sometimes, and sometimes she annoys me a lot.

I'm glad she's around though, and am fond of her.

I seem to remember people accusing her of being gurning OTT

They still are.

And to be honest, as a dancer, she was a bit of a gurner.

Yes I do like Karen but I can see why some people find her annoying. It is quite easy to come across as a know-it-all rather than an expert, especially when everything is hyped up so much on ITT.

She was my favourite pro.

She is my favourite regular on ITT.

That just about sums up my feelings about her.

Can't stand either of them, I usually go and put the kettle on or something when they appear on ITT.

You would have to respect what Karen says, having won many top awards in dancing and as a worldwide adjudicator in dance .

Pity she's not a judge on SCD .

That could be good or bad? Bell end or belle? Or maybe ball? I'm confused, not heard that before.

Anyway, I never warmed to her as a pro and I can take or leave her on It Takes Two.

She is doing a great job at west Ham, bringing them to the Olympic stadium and improving the team.

I respect her opinion but I find her a bit difficult to watch. She loves herself a bit too much for me.

I love hearing what she has to say but i find her difficult to watch. She has the same ventriloquist dummies mouth thing going on that Carol has.

She's just too much. She's like an idiot on the plane - "for ****s sake, just shut up will you?"

No.

Whilst I may bow to her ballroom expertise, watching her is a bit painful. I wish she'd hire a stylist. The 80s are so over.

I like to listen to what she says, but not necessarily watch her.

I enjoy Karen on ITT, especially when she demonstrates steps. She can sometimes appear biased, and the eyelash fluttering, kissy-kissy, pout-pout can grate at times when she overdoes it and that's saying something for ITT

8/10.

I loved her as a pro in the Ramprakash years! On ITT she can be a bit OTT and is capable of doing 0 - irritating in under six seconds easily.
She knows her stuff obviously and it's interesting getting her take on dances but she's not without bias unfortunately.

Harmless but "gushing."
