But Len those 2 points were fixed. Peter was overmarked deliberately to keep him in.
Hang on, Peter was still bottom of the leaderboard on the judge's points. Jamelia was the one who had more points before the dance-off. If Peter was overmarked initially it didn't help because he ended up last.

I would love to know if the judges know the order of the public vote, from one week to next
I really think that they do. This explains some weird overmarking in some weeks and dodgy judges comments. The way they comment as if they know how a particular contestant will be there next week or not makes me think they do.

But he may not have been if one or two of the others danced worse. Craig was the only one who scored him correctly. He didn't deserve more than 5's.

They've picked some strange clips from people this week. Hard to tell how people are doing properly.

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.
It's so patronising of the BBC to treat us like morons who don't know the difference between a good version of a dance and a bad one.

And their explanation for the reshot standing ovation wasn't convincing. I guess I might be more convinced if standing ovations were regularly reshot.

Anita has good hip action, but as Ian said, needs more continuous movement.

The judges are supposed to judge on the dance off which Len confirmed - They didn't.

This is a television programme. An entertainment programme. Can we, please, move on. I am sure there are more important things to get your 'knickers in a twist' about.

I wish Ian would say when the footage was shot otherwise it's pretty meaningless really.

How could the other 3 judges not see that Peter was completely flat footed and out of sync. Craig scored him 6 but then saved him in the DO. It doesn't make sense.

I'm glad Len came on and those questions were put to him. His answers were predictable of course, but at least the Beeb know that we aren't just saying "Oooh, look, sparkly things", they know we question the judging and will continue to do so, specially after this.

Zoe looking uncomfortable there!

Judging by the training so far, who looks worst?

I think Peter or Katie.

I wouldn't be surprised if Peter top the leaderboard this weekend; yes even though his training looks crap at the moment.

However, this is the Strictly board, and this is where any knicker twisting is entirely appropriate, unlike say, angsting about terrorism.

Hmm..

The BBC have had four days to prep Len and he still didn't sound very convincing.
