Which dances that received a ten paddle actually deserved them?
Yes every single one of Jays dances listed deserved a ten, most of them more tens than they got. The Salsa also deserved at least one 10. The other dances he did didn't deserve 10s.
I think Georgias Samba (mistake aside) deserved one 10 and I also think Katies VW should have got a 10 and probably Georgias foxtrot (suffered from 4 9s in the same way as Jays salsa being first up)
I would say only
Helen's VW
Kellies AS
Kellies showdance
possibly
Anita's paso - very impressive though technically probably not a 10
Jay's jive
Georgia's charleston
The problem with 10's this year was some got them because the judges had no where else to go, having maybe marked earlier dances too high.
There was only one 10 dance for me and that was Jay's Jive.

That is the problem every year. If anything, this year they have been restrained with the 10 compared to other years.
I think By the standards of this year, Jays salsa deserved at least one ten.
If I could have voted it would have been for Anita and Glebs Week 9 Paso Doble
Of those listed:
- Jay's Jive (deserved 40, I don't care if it was Week 3).
- Helen's Viennese Waltz (also deserved 40).
- Kellie's Showdance
- Georgia's Charleston (in the final).
I'd add Jay's Salsa and Katie's Foxtrot to the list too.
There's only two of those I would dispute
Kelly's final tango (due to the pair of them grinning all the way through it, a total no no with the judges normally)
Jay's Charleston (that drop, whether 'intended' or not looked horribly messy & spoiled the routine imo)
There are only a few which I think deserved 4 tens
Jay's jive & final paso
Georgia's two Charleston's & American Smooth
Kellie's Ametican Smooth & Showdance
Anita's Paso
I would have also given at least a couple of tens to Georgia's Showdance and, but for the one tiny balance issue I would have given her final Rumba tens as well
Jay's salsa deserved 10s. I think he finished 4th that night too which was a bit ??? He deserved more credit for the insane spinning lift at the end, it was pro-like.
I adored his Charleston but the drop meant it probably didn't merit a 10. Oh Bruno
I can't believe Kellie's tango of all things got the first 40. She'd done a better dance the week before!
Anita's paso was a bit questionable too for a 10 but I did love the drama so whatever
