Strange that the only couple to NOT get an A of some form - Clare and Brendan - does Len have an agenda to get them out!!!!!

A bit daft to be honest, Matt got a A+ he's only done 2 good dances, now in comparison to Mark and Louisa??!

I think I said elsewhere that after watching ITT there seems to be something personal between Brendan and Len.

DerChef says

I would broadly agree with what Len says in terms of ranking

Maybe knock Matt to an A and Emma to an A-

Ohhh Yeah

Agreed with what he said, but not agreed with his marks. Matt just has to prove himself with his jive, and then he'll deserve an A+. To get this score now is just pushing it a little.

Matt should not have got an A+ that is just ridiculous he shud have fot an A- tops

Oh well, what else could we expect from Len. Showing his favouritism yet again.

Wonder what grade himself and the rest of the judges should get for the accuracy of their scores over the past few weeks?

the Judges would get 'nil points' I think. Len is just as biased as the rest of them.

No way Emma deserved an A at all. Her Chacha was total rubbish. She looked like a duck waddling about, bent knees, no arm extensions, no lines. If Bruno hadnt given her the nine to keep her in she would have been out last Saturday.

Don't want to offend the man.......but i really cannot take him seriously any more (and i mean it)........after some of his behaviour this series.

Sorry,but a wasted 15 mins of ITT.

Blimey ..I don't think its meant to be taken seriously really..just strikes me as a bit of fun...the real test comes every Saturday and in the final in a few weeks time.....

Len has lost the plot lately

I agree with you.
Len has got a bit carried away with Matt, how can he forget about all of Matt's other not so good performances.

I dont mean to offend anyone but I dont like it when suddenly contestants who are not good all rounders/or consistent start being pumped up as potential winners. I feel thats what they are doing with Matt and it irritates me so much.

Len is hopelessly biased. I hope they'll let him go to the US and don't bother flying back.

Didn't understand that one either
And now why did both Emma & Carol get 'A's' when everyone with a sane set of grey cells knows that Louisa's level of performance and picking up steps/technique has been consistently better and she got an 'A-'.
Me thinks the DanceMeister was on something yesterday; besides suffering from the remainder of 'rebound jetleg'.

I agree. Louisa should have been up there - week on week she picks up the steps and delivers the goods.
Also can't understand how Carol got an A - I like her & Matthew but all her performances seem to lack something and her dancing seems really tentative.
Giving Matt an A after two spectacular performances also seemed overstated. His first few dances were average and he has yet to prove himself in the latin.
It was only 10 mins of fun but was always bound to cause a debate!!

I know people probably won't agree with me but I feel that Claire has done 4 really good dances, her rumba illegal lifts and all, her foxtrot, her American Smooth and her Tango... Matt has only really done two, I don't believe he should be marked higher then her... But that's just me and I might just be a tad biased to Brendan ...

Goodman is a pillock, and it's time the producers of SCD reined him in a bit, well a lot really. He's always had a big head, but it has become enormous now he's been wined and dined in the States.
He's ruining the program.

Agreed. Now that DWTS has finished in the USA maybe he'll start taking note of what people over here are saying about him - and it's not complimentary, unlike the way he undoubtedly got treated in the USA. I think he's still annoyed because Brendan dared to tell him he'd lost the plot - hence his comment about "you're here to keep your mouth shut and dance". God forbid that anyone should criticise the "head judge".

Agreed - Len is beginning to come across as a bit of a berk

I thought it was really pointless - he bumsucked every team apart from Brendan and Clare, whom it is clear from the live shows are his least favourite.

DerChef says

What are you people watching

Claire and Brendan are by far the weakest couple left in.

I would have no problem with any of the others in the final.

If you want to vote for these pair because of "the great journey they have made together" or that her feet are falling off or that he is so cute and you want to cuddle him, thats fine by me but dont come out with rubbish that they deserve to win on dancing ability alone

Ohhhhhhh Yeah

DerChef says

woops double post


Ohhhhhhh Yeah

Noone's said they deserve to win, but I strongly disagree that Matt is a A+ and Claire is a B... Overall Claire has had many more better dances then Matt, neither deserve to win they are both as bad as each other...

Totally agree! By all means vote for the couple if you like them, but to say her dancing is on a par with the others is obviously not right, she is far weaker than the others. Len was right in his assessment of her abilities. (have issues with his assessment of Matt after just two good dances etc. but that's another matter).

Meant to quote the original post, not the correction!!

From last night's ITT, even Brendan and Claire were not aiming to go into the finals (implied, of course, they didn't specifically say they weren't). But then again, that might get them sympathy votes (and even more votes from the hormonal fans of Brendan!).

Len's comments, as they seem increasingly unpopular, may have the opposite effect for all you know. I mean Emma getting an A? People who are 'sitting on the fence' might be sick of her as a result and stop voting for her. Same goes for Mark and Matt. Whether they deserve an A+ is immaterial, since the British public seems determine to dislike teacher's pets so Len may just be doing them a big disservice.

I thought his half-term report was a waste of time. Rather watch Ian telling us his favourite SCD dance routine. Yeah.
