What’s the betting Len will say something patronising along the lines of- Wew, in the grand scheme of things, it’s just an entertainment show, everybody's gettin' their knickers all bunched up- it’s not actually that important! Blah, blah, more faux home-spun wisdom/mantras.
To which I would respond- you don’t get to wriggle out of it that easily- you’re not a doctor, a politician, or a soldier, others chose to do that- the judges had one job to do: tell the viewers which was the better out of 2 dancers. You’re paid very handsomely to do a rather silly job- so do it properly or it’s a dismissive waste of licence payers’ money.
Do I feel better for that rant...?...*strokes chin and ponders*... Yes. Yes I do.
ETA- fair do's- he didn't try to wriggle out of it. But then his reputation is still intact. Would've been far more squirmy if one of the other judges had had to face that. Other than that- fair play to ITT for trying to deal with events.
