Michael Underwood slams unfair Dancing On Ice scoring
Tue Feb 03 12:01PM by TV Editor
Michael Underwood has accused the Dancing On Ice judges of unfair scoring and says that the show is biased in favour of the female contestants.
The GMTV presenter, who was voted out of Sunday's show following a skate-off with Melinda Messenger, singled out judge Nicky Slater for criticism.
He told The Sun: "Unfortunately this series there's been a lot of random scoring - inconsistencies - Nicky's scoring especially.
"He'll be giving Donal 4.5 and then Ray five and the difference between Ray and Donal is not point five. You want to see consistency."
Michael, who had to pull out of last year's series after breaking his ankle, also said that the girls have an unfair advantage because they are led by their professional partners:
"The girls can get away with it - they can be lifted, they can hold positions, they don't have to have as much feet on the ice."
