I agree with James!! As did Kate, Anton, Arlene, Craig AND Len. John should not have pulled out of a competition he had committed to.
By John leaving he has made it WORSE for the dancers left in. There is now only 2 people in the final, whereas had John stayed in the comp there would have been 3. He has robbed someone of the final experience, I think John would have been voted out with 5 or 4 left. As posters have already said James doesnt articulate very well and he comes across aggressive which is a shame because he is only being honest and passionate. I think its refreshing to hear someone tell it as it is on TV these days. I was just a bit worried about him saying it as I think (and has already been proved) that he is going to be made out to be the bad guy. Can someone please explain this 'Wolverine' to me |

It wasn't what he said it was the way he said it. It was aggressive and nasty. I'm not surprised that John woke up at 4am and decided enough was enough if this was the type of thing he was putting up with.

He's 28. If he hasn't learned to 'express himself' by now he really should keep his mouth shut.

I think James might be asked by the press whether or he feel guilty for John departure as he's the one who effectively accusing the public for voting for John, thus adding pressure to John. That's why he tried to fight back, in a extremely stupid way.

You make a very good point but Wolverine was still quite rude to both John and Kristina who must have been only feet away from him as he verbally lunged into them
![]() I would like to think he is regretting his outburst but somehow I doubt it, and that's pretty sad for John, Kristina and SCD as a whole. James has turned a light-hearted ray of Saturday sunshine into something quite ugly in my eyes. It's all left a bitter taste in my mouth. Ironically, after James saying series 6 is all about John, he's managed to make it all about James Jordan! Maybe that's what he wanted. ![]() Wow, I needed that rant. I feel so much better.

Two very similar threads on this so I'll post this in both:
John was a grown man on a light enternainment show about celebs who can't dance being taught to dance and then judged. He was a grown man that entered the show to entertain and see if he could learn to dance. He practised more often than most of the others, he just didn't have the aptitude for dance, but the public liked his performances and his spirit so they voted for him to stay. He thought it was amusing and entertaining.....then the judges spat their dummies....but he carried on because the public obviously liked to watch him. Then the fact of him staying every week became a big joke, a bigger joke than he and his partner actually intended. At this point some of the professional dancers started spitting their dummies *cough* James Jordan, and the atmosphere behind scenes obviously changed and the joke became very unfunny. For the past two weeks judges and some of the other dancers, have banged on about the need to vote him out......but the public ignored them...so John decided enough was enough, he didn't want to stay when the joke has obviously fallen very flat for some, and animosity is starting to creep in. So he leaves....and now.... He's wrong to have done so, he's being selfish and egotistical....these accusations are from the exact same people that last week were virtually begging us to vote him off |

I never could abide James anyway - it's always the inarticulate ones who aren't nearly as clever as they think they are that are the most mouthy
I see he's getting his face absolutely everywhere commenting about it all the time, and he's the one that got personal (ignoring the fact that he apparently thought Kenny Logan was the best dancer last year) ps james, it's 'irrespective' not 'irrelevent' I really hope he's not back next year - in business terms, he doesn't provide added value and isn't fit for purpose! and he put that bloody awful guitar move thing in the cha cha - indefensible

And let's not turn this into yet another Cherie bashing thread - have you nothing better to do? It's up to you to avoid threads that aren't to your liking, not for other forum members to censor their views. And yes OP I agree - James came across as an odious git. |

What really tickles me is how the public is supposed to vote for the best dancer when the judges don't agree who this is either, even their marks for the same dance have fluctuated wildly on occasion.

I recalled in ITT earlier in the series the pros and celebs were asked who they think would win Strictly.
I recalled Tom and Jodie picked Cherie, based on dance merit. I recalled James picked Andrew, and the reason, he gave, was Andrew was dancing with his wife (huh?) and GMTV celebs always do well and go far in the competition. Now if we take that into consideration, surely James IS contradicting himself asking people to vote for better dancers when he said such a thing? I would have been less surprised if he said he thought Cherie would win, but he specifically picked Andrew, and I am sure he already knew from watching his cha-cha and the boy's group dance that Andrew is nowhere near the dance ability of Austin and Tom?!?!

He has robbed someone of the final experience... "John should not have pulled out of a competition he had committed to". He was completely within his rights to pull out once it had become completely uncomfortable for him to continue. As he said himself, how could he go out dancing week after week knowing what was going on behind the scenes? We have tonight seen what people were prepared to say in front of the cameras. Imagine what the level of hostility was backstage. |

He made it far too personal - he accused John of being selfish and wanting it all to be about him which I don't think was totally fair.
Poor John - damned if he does and damned if he doesn't. |
