You say it's only one extra point that's being blown out of proportion, but although the programme is for charity, it is after all a dancing competition and you just can't give a perfect score for an illegal dance? That is just totally making a complete mockery of the other professionals who kept to the rules and only had two lifts IMO

For what it's worth i thought i thought Kelly and Brendan's dance was fantastic, but Kelly admitted she knew they were breaking the rules,so if she was that bothered about it she surely could have said to Brendan she wasn't comfortable doing it.

Easy answer to breaking the rules.
Kick them out the competition. |

You and some others need to take a long, hard look at some of Len's scores tonight. How interesting that his blatant over-marking of some of the dross is attracting so little comment.

Even without the extra lift, it shouldn't have been a 10. A 9 at most 8 if you deduct for the lift. IMO.

Bruno giving a perfect score after an illegal lift angered me greatly. even more so because both kelly and brendon knew it shouldnt have been included, but included it anyway....showing complete lack of respect for the rules. and that is a disgrace. Brendon's arrogance annoys me.
even bigger a disgrace than Brendon's arrogance in adding an extra lift despite knowing it wasnt allowed, is Bruno giving a 10. they need a new judge next year. a competent judge who bloody downgrades when rules are broken! the dance cant be perfect with an illegal lift in. |

yeh but a 10 is saved for perfection and it wasnt perfect because they had an extra lift in there..... len did over mark on some of the dances though! !!
My point is that Bruno's 10 for Kelly is dead easy to criticise. Len's 6, 6 and 7 for Kate, Kenny and John if anything makes more of a mockery of the 'competition' but is conveniently ignored by many.

WITH the lift it was a 8 dance end of... If Bruno wanted to be 'different' a 9 was the highest he should have gone, or gone totally the other way and give them a 3 for every lift ...

if it was not for brendon brecking the rules it would had been easily 4 10 across the board

![]() by throwing in an illegal lift he ruined the opportunity for them to have a minimum of score of 37 but probably more |

However, the near hysteria over one 'illegal' lift does make me laugh when the standard of some of the dancing tonight was quite poor.
![]() I may be in a chilled-out minority....but I'd MUCH rather watch Kelly and Brendan stylishly bending the rules than Kate, Kenny and John stumble and stagger around. ![]() Quote:
And three out of four judges marked Kelly & Brendan down for their heinous rule-break.
I do hate to bring facts into the discussion but they didn't exactly get away with anything regardless of some of the OTT comments on here. ![]() Bruno's a plonker...but it would be silly to blow one extra point out of proportion wouldn't it? Quote:

Like everyone else here, I am somewhat angry and appalled at the illegal lift and the score of 10 it achieved.
Really, what is the point of rules when people keep breaking them? I think that the arrogance of the pair of them should be dealt with by getting rid of them. When personalities seem to believe that they come before the show, then it's time to get in some new blood...people who will respect the competition and the rules. Yes, there was strange marking going on elsewhere tonight but that's for another thread... |

Len overmarks, granted. But as he consistently does it it ensures noone has an unfair advantage over anyone else. Bruno doing what he did tonight could theoretically affect who goes tonight. He should have given an 8 and maybe those ridiculous extra two marks will keep Kelly and the Doughnut out of the bottom two?? I dont think for a minute they are in danger of going, but you see the point I am making.
Just want to add that, as it stands, I want Kelly and Brendan to win the entire thing, so I am not biased against them. I prefer Craig and Arlene because they give themselves space to mark fairly. |

Everyone else followed the rules. You could understand it if more people broke them but it is always just Brendan.

Bruno should be put out to grass. His comments are pointless, his bias once again is blantant and giving Kelly a 10 when she broke the rules (or selfish Brendan did) is ridiculous.
Craig, though bitchy, has been fairly sensible this series...but Bruno is a div. |

I couldn't disagree more. Len is as guilty of favouritism and inconsistency as any of the judges.
I prefer Craig and Arlene because they give themselves space to mark fairly. I am no fan of Len and much prefer Craig and Arlene as well. Was just making the point that I think Len is at least consistent in his overmarking! |
