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. YOU find them smug and irritating, others find them delightful. Funny old world isn't it?? As to their parents/Len/BBC comments, they sound like desperation on your part. |

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. |

2) Ever heard of viewer manipulation? Ever heard of under marking and over marking? You should learn about viewer manipulation, Simon Cowell is REALLY good at it. |

And yet only one other agreeing with you in this thread thus far, the rest of us don't seem to loathe the Clifton's.

When so many different people share the same sentiment, I think it's safe to assume there's something about them which has the potential to irritate...
I agree Kevin over dances and Karen is very attention seeking, Joanne would be much more popular if she wasn't associated with them. To be honest, a lot of the other pros do the same as the Cliftons, I think the difference is that it feels like there's no let up from them - whether it's the pro dances or in the main show, the producers clearly love them even if few others appear to. |

As much as they're is a lot of bias towards them which is ruining the show, that's down to the BBC/producers/judges not the Cliftons themselves - I actually like Kevin, Karen and Joanne.

Yes it should probably be based only on the celebs but it's about the partnership. That's why I didn't vote for Claudia because even though I like her I dislike her partnership. |

You are on a DS forum asking people on here a question, now you are saying their replies unless they tie in with your opinion don't matter, is that right?

Just as well there is balanced opinion outside of the DS Strictly forum steamroom, isn't it?

Bring on more Clifton's I say, the more the merrier!!
![]() They have the brightest personalities and shine when in the spotlight... Neil Jones & Chloe have tried to seal that this year but nope, Clifton reigns supreme! |

I used to hope that Kevin got a duffer next year because I find his choreography a bit bland for my tastes, but I truly, desperately hope he gets a ringah and goes straight to the final again. In fact, I hope he never gets a duffer - I hope he's front and centre every week, scoring high and makes people choke on everything from his kicks, to his hair, to his wife to his parents.
People who put that amount of vitriol out in the universe deserve to be rewarded by seeing the objects of their ire thrive. In fact, I hope he gets the forum pet next year - that would be fitting. |

Yep, I don't like them either. They are too smug and show-offy for me. Nothing would make me happier than Kevin coming 2nd for a 4th year running, with Joanne coming 3rd and Danny/Claudia winning.
The only solace I get is that thanks to Will Young leaving, we don't have to put up with three Cliftons in the final. That'd be overload! |

You're not alone, but I don't agree. I like them all. Incredibly talented, hard working, and nice people.
