Aren't judges supposed to have an opinion? Isn't that the point of them?
And in this case, the marks clearly indicate who should win on merit, and who should come last. If it was close, or someone else had done better, or the judges marks were split, Len's comment would be out of place - as it is, its obvious. |

You can just tell though how much he despises the fact that the unwashed public have control of this one

Naive and hair splitting. He is the only judge to EXPLICITLY declare, sorry confirm his bias. Marking is one thing, expressing who should win is another. After all, weve been told the judges' marks dont count. So why have ghey gone all out to promote Kellie tonight?
You tell me |

Wtf at these comments
Did people not realise Darcey did exactly the same thing by saying Jay was her number 1??? People talk about judges biases but the bias for Jay/against Kellie on here has really been atrocious...

Why? The head judge said that the best dancer should win. Isn't that his job?

Sigh.
Darcy also called Jay her "number 1", but seeing as he's the golden boy no one much cared about that .

Darcy said Jay and Aliona were her number one. Either both should be criticised or neither.

Len gave his opinion which i happen to agree with so what's wrong with that.
Darcey said jay should win which based on tonight is totally biased. |

Why on earth should judges be impartial? What is the point of an impartial judge?
We the viewers got to vote for the winner. Is there actually anyone on here who though 'oooh Len said they should win - I'd better vote for them'? Every one of the judges passed an opinion on their favourite dance - Len was quite direct in his choice of words - I don't see why he shouldn't be allowed to voice his opinion. If it had been Claudia, Tess or Zoe I'd have been shocked and disappointed (it still wouldn't have swayed me) - judges are there to judge. |

So it's biased if you don't agree with it but not biased if you agree?

Len wasn't even asked the question if he thought Kellie and Kevin had done enough to win, Tess directed the question to Craig who answered with a very diplomatic swerve. Len made a point of returning to the question, that's what got to me the most.

I'd be bothered if tonight was the first time it had happened but it's a bit harsh to single out Len when other judges have done it over the years too.

She wasn't the best dancer though. Her showdance was stumpy and her legs were wide apart. She hardly looked very elegant. Also in their mango the hold was wrong
