I say this every year but might as well say it again never underestimate the power of being Gorgeous on this show.

best looking guy won it in 2013 (the gymnast)
2012.....the bloke from that pop group (he was surely the best looking guy that year
2011.....the gorgeous looking girl from Eastenders
2010.....the sports reporter had a partner whose tits could hardly be contained by her dress
Alicia Dixon won it and she was absolutely stunning
Mark Ramprekash had the ladies swoooning the year he won it
Gough....danced with the best looking female in his year.

No man has won it over the age of forty and no women has won it over the age of 32 (the thirty-two-year old was in the very first series, since then every female winner has been in her twenties)


great post!

From the official site the fecking arrogant scumbags

More than six million votes were cast in the final.

However, the BBC said it would not disclose the breakdown of the votes, meaning the second and third-placed contestants will not be revealed.

Really can't understand the secrecy from our public service broadcaster in not revealing the voting figures for the whole series a la x factor.

No its fecking disgraceful but we can all do something.  I have tried before under a FOI complaint but they weaseled out of it. I have just sent this formal complaint online. Easy to do and the more who do the better. Can I ask that we all send one?

https://ssl.bbc.co.uk/complaints/forms/?reset=#anchor


The BBC loses a lot of credibility and damages its reputation for openess by refusing to release the voting figures for Strictly Come Dancing. The excuse that you don;t have to because of a clause in the FOI Act is a poor one. What happened to transparency?

The BBC is inconsistent in that it DOES release the Sports Personailty of the Year results. Why for one and not for the other?

ITV give the full series results for X Factor and I'm A Celebrity.  Why is the license fee funded BBC less open than a private commercial business?

You encourage people to vote then don't tell them the results other than who has won. Why? What harm can be done releasing the results AFTER the event? What harm has been done to X Factor or IAC by doing this?

I believe the decision not to release the figures is untenable and does the BBC a lot of damage to its reputation.  Just read the comments in various forums.

Therefore in your response could you let me know not only why the results aren't published but also whose decision it is and who could change the policy?

Thank you

To not release the voting fifures is arrogant enough, but to not reveal 2nd/3rd place is just plain wrong and insulting.

Mind you, this is a cooperation that gave haven to the likes of Jimmy Saville so we shouldn't be surprised.
