He needs to stop all this transatlantic flying at his age - it is making him very rude and cranky!

Appalling man. Or was it staged to take the focus away from J & K?

I'm not sure - but if it was, then it was a huge misjudgement.

This is supposed to be good-natured Saturday night family entertainment. We don't need to see 4 overblown egos (the judges) trying to make themselves the main part of the show. It is not very respectful to us as the viewers or to the dancers, who are supposed to be the real stars of the programme.

Len Goodman (what a misnomer that is!!) needs to be put in his place by the producers.

For a moment I thought it was going to get violent.

Len was out of order for sure.

He suggested Christine should take off her knickers and throw them in the air. When Craig objected to the comment Len went mental at him.

I must say I found the whole thing really rather amusing, if anything Craig reacted to a jokey comment from Len!

I thought if was staged I must admit, for the reason you state.

He was imo trying - as usual - to win back some of the public's sympathy by having a go at the judge he thinks is the most controversial and therefore NOT like by the public ...

I don't think it was, they have steady introduced this 'banter' in the last three series, only it is now getting very silly and off putting.

Anyway as soon as Len stopped talking Craig was laughing.

I agree - Len is becoming very annoying. A lot of his comments are ridiculous, and his aggression towards the other judges is not pleasant. This is supposed to be a family show after all! I think he should be pensioned off - Brian for head judge next year!

For the record, Bruce is also an embarrassing old fool, but I just hit the mute button whenever he's on. You can't really do that with the judges - you do need to hear their views on the dances!

Len was completely OTT. Really found it uncomfortable viewing, which is a real shame with such fabulous dances tonight. Really quite rude that the other judges can't make a comment without him shouting them down. Get a grip Len! (hey my first post!)

yes, my youngest two children and I were watching and for a split second it went through my mind that things were going to get physical.

This is family viewing BBC. Get your act together.

The corporation certainly seems to be heading for a very public meltdown.

Len definitely was OTT in his response to Craig who wasn't aggressively arguing with him anyway. But it could well be staged, a lot of their comments seem to be these days...
