How can you say that - what were you watching?!?! Their ''Vienesse Waltz'' was an absolute disgrace - it totally ignored the rules - it is a dance based on continuous turns and this did not happen. It was just another disco dance from Miss Jiggy Jiggy and her partner. ..........and what do Arlene and Len do - say as much and then give them some of the highest marks for this particular dance.
Brendan Cole who in earlier rounds, constantly critisised the judges for marking entirely out of sync with their comment and indeed was critisised and badly marked down for not dancing according to the rules, should be publicly thanked for voicing what many of us were already beginning to find tiresome.
I can honestly say that the chances of my watching this series through to the end - having not missed a minute since series 1 - is now unlikely.
I have great respect for the hard work of the performers and for the opinions of the judges but the judges are now ''playing to the gallery'' instead of what they are supposed to do which is to give unbiased professional opinion as an aid to the voting public - but then when the public vote for soap opera babes who are trained dancer/performers instead of following the original spirit of the show, to watch the journey of true amateurs, then I do feel that the very core of what was a truly great entertainment has been lost.
