So glad I'm not the only one who couldn't believe they saved Peter. Jamelia was waaay better! Me and mum just stared at the screen and shouted 'What?!' I know Jamelia probably would have gone next week, if not this week, but still, she was the better dancer in the dance off. This decision makes the dance off look like a pointless sham.

Yes Lens 8 was very telling - in context he gave it 1 point less than Jays jive - probably one of the most highly regarded in shows history. Beggars belief that a non jive - it was bleeding obvious to everyone at home,would score so highly.
Len can hardly be given any accolades for his judging on Saturday. |

The hysteria on here is just hilarious - it was a decision on a TV show, not the end of the world!
Anyone who's only now subscribing to the "it's a fix" mantra is to be honest rather naive to only be realising that now - they might say the dance-off is based on that one dance, but it's very clear and has been ever since the dance-off was introduced way back in series 5 that it is not just based on that. Jamelia clearly wasn't popular, she wasn't pulling in the votes, so the judges decided it was time for her to go and saved someone who for many other weeks clearly was pulling in the votes, as they've saved him from having to do a dance-off on some decidedly average performances in the past. But the annoyance is understandlable . Strictly is a light entertainment escapism for people . This decision left a sour taste in my mouth which annoyed me greatly because its my favourite show of the year and its now been clearly shown that its manipulated and not what it seemed And if its based on previous performance then they should inform us and scrap the dance off all together |

Have I been watching a different show? Peter has been consistently very mediocre.

Next week will be interesting. I'm sure he will win the Quick Stepathon, courtesy of camera angles that hardly show him. But how overmarked will his main dance be?

What I'm not getting is, apart from the fact, it should have been who danced better in the DO (& in this case it was definitely Jamelia) is why some people are saying, who was the better dancer overall should've stayed in the competition. Yes PA, initially was better than Jamelia but he didn't improve, whereas, Jamelia was slowly but surely making progress & I thought her dance on Saturday was actually really good.
Is this not what Strictly is all about, the dancers improving each week? If so, that can't be said for PA, apart from one not too bad dance, he's more or less plateaued. |
