They're actually ruining the show for me.

Kevin, although a decent dancer, couldn't get any smugger.

Karen, possibly the most annoying person on the show. (I've never seen anyone play up to the cameras more)

Joanne, also incredibly irritating, and a VERY average dancer.

Why is there such praise on them from the judges? Does Len know their parents or something?

For example, Louise's second dance last night was NOWHERE near as good as they made out, it was average, yet they praised her. If that would have been Danny and Oti, they'd have had something negative to say.

Good grief!! If this is the biggest thing you have to worry about in life, you are VERY lucky.

It's a Saturday night entertainment show.

Yawn.
There's lots of anti-Kevin / Clifton threads on DS. Did you have to start a new one?

Oh at last! Another thread knocking the Cliftons, it must be a good 18 hours since we had one of those.

Yet another Clifton Bashing thread:- for your information

BIB From Joanne's Wiki Page 'She won the World Ballroom Showdance Championship in 2013 and also won the European Professional Ballroom Championship and World Dancesport Games.

I don't think a VERY average dancer could accomplish the above

There are so many threads about the Cliftons, do we really need another one?

And you might not rate them, or like them, but plenty others - including experienced dancers - do rate their dancing, and do like them.

Kevin is an excellent dancer, and Joanne? You don't get to be WORLD champion by being AVERAGE.

She dances like a celebrity trying to learn

Are you not telling me you can't see the difference between Joanne and the likes of Oti, Kristina etc?

I don't mind the Clifton's at all, can't see what they have done so bad as to rile so many? I like all the strictly Pros this year though.

Oh I can definitely see the difference. If you understood the technique of dance, so would you.

It's a joke, calm down dear.

I do think their parents know Len or have connections at the BBC or something. They're so smug and irritating. Karen is probably the worst.

Sorry Darcey, I didn't realise you had to be a technical expert to enjoy a Saturday night TV show.

She's not as good as the other females.
