Yes! While he was insulting him on his AS choreography.

A think a slap in the chops with a glove was required for such a combination of injury and insult.

Pistols at dawn, rapiers at noon, stilletos at night! (well they're a bit tough to wear all day).

Mind you I have to say I find the pistols and rapiers a bit hard on the old plates.

I'm really someone else, mama, I am cunningly disguised as Rhumbatugger.

And what I want to say is:

Ooooh Len dares, he dares, doesn't he? He loves to do a bit of patronising of the pro's.

Likes to wield his power a bit. Sometimes I like him and sometimes he annoys me - but he was sooo patronising to Vincent last night. And then undermarked him.

He gave them the same score as all the other judges, how is that undermarking them? I agreed with Len about R+V's AS but her dress, those lifts, and a bit of Barry Manilow still made it a lovely dance!

Have to say I thought Len calling Vince quite funny, I remember one of the comedian's on ITT saying Len sounds like a London cabbie, he really did then!!

I thought Len gave R&V 8 for the AS. The other judges gave higher, including Craig.

Only my opinion of course , but I thought that low ... Len is a BOUNDER, I say! (I couldn't really say he was a cad though.)
Rhumbatugger

And you're right - he does sound like a London cabbie - all jovial and contemptuous.

Rachel got 36 - straight 9's, plus 39 for AT. Lisa had 35 +40

Better than fake posh english accent at the other end of the judges table, at least with Len what you see is what you get.

No, it was an 8 from that idiot Len, a 10 from Bruno and 9s from t'other two.

I wasn't being snotty about Len, or not in any serious way.

He can be jovial and contemptuous. Craig can't be jovial - just contemptuous!

Fair enough. I, on the other hand, can't stand the man. He is ruining the programme somewhat for me.

That's ok I feel the same way about Craig.

I like every judge if, and only if, THEY AGREE WITH ME, if they don't, I don't like 'em.

Because it's obvious how blind and stupid and lacking in taste they are.

Until...they AGREE WITH ME AGAIN, then, in my eyes, they have redeemed themselves and all is well.

That's so true of most people on this forum!

It is certainly true of me. Because I really do know best and am always right.
ALWAYS RIGHT.

The judges are not 100% right all the time like me, ME ME ME ME!

Sorry - got to go outside and deflate my ego - it's the meglomania you know - I'm on pills for it.

Hallooooo - I'm baaack. I really am alright now.

As it is with Craig. What you see is a fake posh English accent - and that's what you get. Why is that a problem? You falling for Len's "Mr Nice Guy" act all the time or something?

Rhumbatugger - this should be the motto of DS!!

I'll forgive you Rhumbatugger - you don't half make me laugh!!!

The difference between Craig and Len - Craig insults the dancing (although he has been more toned down this series) but Len is just rude to the contestants in a personal way.

Joking aside - there was something very dismissive and cold about the way he said 'sorry Vince' that made me rather upset for the delightful Mr Simone.

Sorry not to get back to you sooner mama. I know - they repeated it on ITT tonight and I played the results show bit back.

Vincent was hurt and angry - and then I couldn't laugh anymore.

Bad, cantankerous, silly man - a BOUNDER and a CAD.
