Blathers... waffles.... fawns.... randomly repeats what others say..... LOUDLY.... in cod accent.....

Too many points actually.

Definitely! He overmarks to a ridiculous extent! I'm seriously disliking Louisa just because he is so over-protective towards her.

His penchant for alliteration is the only thing he seems to excel at

He is so over excitable and he is the reason that I would like to see a minimum of fie judges, or even better seven - so that the very top and the very bottom score can be discarded, and each couple scored on the middle scores.

He helps keep the show in the light entertainment bracket, his problem is when he takes himself seriously ( like at the end of last year ) and gives his favourite act more marks than they deserve.

I think the show would be a bit drab without him, we already have Len and Craig taking it too seriously as if it really was a dance Competition.

Had the other judges said more good things about Emma he probably would of marked her lower.

Which sayes it all, really.

Yes, as I've mentioned before, there seems to be a separate competition between the judges for "The best use of alliteration and onomatopoeia in a "pre-prepared postulation of a participants' performance."

Last night on at least one occasion, his "line" was suspect, not at all smooth. He also seemed to have trouble with his "hold," particularly in the area of the mouth.
Perhaps he should have taken his own advice and chosen a less difficult "routine?"
But more of that later.

The "dissention in the ranks" seems to be growing as the competition intensifies. Len is having difficulty in controlling them and they are ignoring Bruce's whistle.
Still all good fun.
CIN is certainly over, so maybe the judges have now been told to be no longer too kind to Ms Bunton? Their comments were however far more critical than the marks given. "Old habits die hard?"
Compared to other performances, no way was she worth two "eights."

Still I expect "Bunton's Bunnies" will take an entirely different view.
I didn't think her dress did her any favours, just accentuated the fact that she has not got a waist.
In the end, the right person went, but it looked a bit "touch and go"
Hmmm. Did "Friday night voting" save the day?

We need new blood. Get rid of all of them, it has been miserable this year

They have to submit their marks before the comments are made. And it always appears that Bruno puts his in first and then passes it down the line so he has no idea what the others have done.

If you look at the scores he gave out last night and the order therefore he put couples in, you get this:

Emma - 9
Louisa - 9
Matt - 9
Mark - 8
Carol - 8
Claire - 7
Peter - 7

The only two anomalies there are that I think both Emma and Mark are too high. He wasn't completely all over the place in his marking but Emma's score was ridiculous.

my vote for the most pointless point in a post is in this post regarding emma's waist size ...what has that got to do with the way she danced ...precisely nothing ..just a nasty observation
it is to be hoped none of the women in your life ...if any...put an extra inch on in their lives
and do NOT refer to me as one of "bunton's bunnies ..i am a poster on here giving my views on the programme ..again this is very disrespectful to posters
if you do not care for the way emma dances fair enough but keep your nasty remarks to yourself please
