Surely a win for Kate would be one in the eye for ALL programs that have ripped us off with bogus phone call details over the years.
It would show that the public are in charge of tv and voting - NOT tv moguls. Especially the BBC.
Vote for Kate to win outright and take a stand against vote rigging , ripped off public money and basic lies.
(it's also good fun watching her) As in the famous film cliche - Spread the word.

Simple answer, no, I shall not be spending any money trying to keep Kate Garraway on a dancefloor...

NO, quite simply.

This would be an entirely juvenile thing to do and in doing so, would only hurt the people who try so hard to master what they SHOULD be mastering i.e. the dancing.

"Consequence of your actions" might be the mots du jour, perhaps?

I've got better things to do with my middle finger than sabotage my weekly TV highlight! If I wanted to watch a car crash I'd merely switch over to the X-Factor!!

But if the phone votes are rigged, then maybe Kate staying in is rigged. If the phone votes can't be trusted then voting at all is stupid. Objecting to phone votes by phone voting is insane.

Is this the latest ploy? Let's see, there's been "vote for Kate because she's injured", "vote for Kate as everyone else is too ambitious" etc...

As for it being good fun to watch her - what? It's painful! I appreciate the woman's point that if people are voting for her, she's got a right to be there, but it would be nice that she could at least acknowledge that better people have left than her (and that's everyone that's already left. Except Brian Capron, but they weren't in direct competition so he doesn't count).

Anyway. Wasn't GMTV one of those shows plagued with dodgy phone voting?

I agree. I do find it very interesting how many people say she's fun to watch or great entertainment value... I just feel very sorry and embarrassed for her.

Oh yeah that's a good symbolic protest, vote for a woman who's main employer is one of the worst offenders of the scandal.......

Bruggle Strothers.......

Absolutely! Kate winning is the quickest way to really stick two fingers up at the BBC - they'll scrap the show...

Maybe Kate and her GMTV cult is all part of some ploy by ITV to sabotage SCD in order to win viewers back to X-Factor!!?

Er, no.

Er, no. It would show that it is foolish to leave the destiny of an entertainment programme and one of the highlights of the Autumn schedules in the hands of the public.

Except there has been no vote rigging on the BBC.

“ , ripped off public money”

Where?

Quote:
“(it's also good fun watching her)”

No it's not. It is cringe-worthy. Not entertaining at all.

Have now become rather fed up with Kate and her excuses especially as I've now read that Brian was almost delirious with the flu when he danced .

Excuses at the time - None !

I'd rather waste money on booze and drugs than that big waste of time.

What about the Blue Peter cat-naming scandal? Or was that a rigged postal vote?

He wasn't as bad as Kate anyway and he had very little training due to flu.

Didn't realise GMTV had had dodgy phone votes - the irony...

I have to say I don't find it good fun watching Kate .

Kate will go when the public have had enough , but if she wins , it may discourage celebrities from taking part in another series .
