That is not about voting for the best dancer it's about fan obsession imo!!
I am not naming names simply because, like I said earlier I like watching that person dance too, so would rather generalise, but for the hundredth time if you are going to go to those lengths don't then come down all high & mighty on the judges for commenting how it's the public who are influencing who's in the dance off & why technically better dancers who don't deserve to be there are ending up there!!”

Well, I'll name names: I'm giving Anita Rani & Gleb Savchenko 50 or more votes. She's one the best dancers overall for me. She's danced 11 dances and never once has she ballsed up any of her routines so she's not about to balls up her semi final routines. Even if she does; I'll still give her 50 or more votes. Tess invites me to vote for the one whom I think should progress to the following week. I think Anita should go all the way to the final because she's one of the best dancers overall.
Why shouldn't I or can't I come down all high & mighty on Craig Revel Horwood? He was self indulgent. His comment was useless and accusatory in tone and smacked of arrogance and out and out bias on his part. Everybody knew that the public votes changed the leader board. It happens week in, week out.




..frankly if it means that much to them then I hope they get the winner they have invested so much in....the downside is, for me anyway, the more interesting dancers have gone and though I really don't care who picks up the glitterball I do miss and feel a bit sad that I will never see the dances from those sent home too early because they haven't got the ardent multi-voters behind them.....having one vote each may not have made any difference,,but we will never know.
...but my motto is if you can't (or don't want to) join them, bow out, if it means that much and all that but yep I think it skewers the outcome and for me in a negative way. But hey-ho
