Wow, a post from you that hasn't a snide remark about Jay in!

The world truly is ending.

I can see both sides of this - I have developed a dislike of some contestants in the past and been pretty vocal about it sometimes unfairly so. And I don't think the judges this year have helped dispel the idea of pro-Clifton bias nor has Jo and Karen's clichey in-crowd chanting of 'under-marked' at Louise's generously some might say over-generously marked AS. I've also developed a dislike for Louise as a contestant although not a person due to her being rather boring and utterly over-marked. I think the over-marking of Louise and on some occasions Ore is more to do with them than the fact they are partnered by Cliftons (i.e. Louise is an older version of the pop princess who are always over-marked going all the way back to Emma Bunton and Ore did do some very good dances early on and is still buoyed up on goodwill from the judges because of that and also the fact he's the only person who isn't white still in the competition when the tabs are crying racism).

However some posters really annoyed me on the spoiler thread being excessively gloatly when my fav got voted off. Look when you get what you want don't rub it in it's just plain rude and unnecessary and some of the conspiracy theories are ridiculous. Some aren't because the judging has been bonkers since Blackpool week but some are.

I don't know about you, but I think 25 years of dancing - both professionally and for the love of it is fairly expert

Not to mention the training and teaching.

Can you dance?

Yes! That's the usual defence. So predictable. Yawn!

We can all dance, just not like the pros and we could all be anything we want as unknown fonts. Maybe its the way 'expertise' is paraded on here that some find snooty.

Have you actually read the stuff they post about those who dare criticise the family? They can't even praise the Cliftons in an appreciation thread without having a go. Emphasis on some FMs, BTW.”

It's a forum, not a therapy board.

Well they need to get over it. Resenting expertise is a bit silly. I love it in other people and admire that hard work they put in to know a subject so well.

What a shame you don't see it the same way. Tsk!

It is indeed a forum, not an I'm an expert in dancing self-appreciation board.
