I would love to know if the judges know the order of the public vote, from one week to next
The judges aren't told anything about the public vote.

People pay money to vote for their favourites so it's not very fair if they are fixing it for someone to stay in.
But it's not FIXED. The judges are free to vote how they see fit which is exactly what they did. The trouble was that many people don't agree with them, exacerbated by the fact that many people also really dislike Peter.

I don't believe they voted on that dance off but rather their overall opinion but what can you do? They'll claim they did and it's their opinion. It's the nature of the show.

Yep.
Len's "explanation" was a complete pile of poop.
So he's a liar?
No chance that you and some others are just overthinking
It's disgraceful that people are being branded as liars and cheats with zero, count that, ZERO evidence

The producers don't interfere with the judging, says Len. Anyone believe him ?
Yep. It helps that I don't really mind too much either way, but I see no reason to disbelieve him

I don't know, Len seemed pretty genuine to me, he looked like he was being honest about producers not telling them who to score more, etc, maybe it was just a case that the other 3 judges did feel Peter deserved to stay more than Jamelia deserved to stay, for some bizarre reason. I don't agree with them, I agree with Len's choice to save Jamelia.

It is good that from now on the judges are going to give a definitive reason for saving people.

Then why didn't you vote for Jamelia to stay in? She was in the bottom for a reason, plus most people vote for free on the website, people need to get over it, no one's dead
I did but it wasn't enough. It wasn't enough goddammit!!!!!😂😂😂😂😂

I agree with Len on drawing a line under this incident.

Instead of Len being made to do this interview, couldn't they get Craig, Darcey or Bruno?
when this was recorded, Bruno was in the States Judging the Final of DWTS

Ian looking like he's just been on a holiday.

Katie needs to have straighter legs. But not looking bad.

But Len said that from now on the judges will offer an explanation for their decisions in the DO.

Some people won't be happy until the BBC come out and say ' its all a fix'! and then they can say 'we were right'!

But it was so obvious Jamelia danced better than Peter in the dance off. Even Len thought so on Saturday. That's why people are annoyed.

I think the way the questions and answers were scripted, he didn't have to actually lie

Isn't that cheating Natalie that you have got Ainsley to help you?

It looks DELICIOUS though.
Does Le Creuset pay for product placement? it seems that all t.v. chefs use them.

Honestly - I don't think they expect Jamelia to be as good as she was and Peter so screamingly obviously worse.

They've taken flak for letting the better dancer, but worse in the dance of go before and I think they misread the room.

No tennis people are annoyed that Peter didn't go!
