STRICTLY Come Dancing fans have called for a huge show shake-up amid a fix row that the judges have already picked the winner.
Viewers have been theorising that the judges have “rigged the final four” in order to “fix” who wins the show this weekend.
Fans want to see a voting shake up on the show
Viewers have fumed that the judges have ‘fixed’ the result
Now, they are calling for a huge show shake-up to ensure the public’s favourite is granted the Glitterball Trophy on Sunday night.
Some have taken to Twitter to hit out that Shirley Ballas, who has been accused of favouritism this series, shouldn’t get two votes.
Head judge Shirley, 62, is granted two votes in the Dance Off in order to avoid a tie-break between the two dancing pairs.
However, fans think that it should be switched up so she only gets one vote, instead of her second vote occurring in a tie.
They have suggested that it should go back to the public results to decide who goes home, and who continues in the competition.
One fan penned on Twitter: “When it goes to a tie, head judge shouldn’t get two votes, it should go back to the public results.
“Otherwise what the hell is the point in us voting or indeed the other judges doing it? We should have the final say.”
Another chimed in: “I’m not sure the process of elimination works that well any more. Idk, feels like it needs a change somehow.”
“Why does Shirley have the casting vote?” a third asked, while a fourth said: “Shirley Ballas wins again, her having the casting vote is so wrong. Please go to the public vote if there is a draw.”
Yesterday, fans flooded social media as they hit out that the final was being “fixed” after Will Mellor was axed from the show.
Strictly fans waved goodbye to Will, 46, after he was in the dance off – with the judges saving Fleur East and Vito Coppola.
It’s led to many of them speculating that the judges’ decisions have been calculated, as they have “rigged the final four”.
They speculated that they had planned for Fleur, 35, to end up in the final – with hopes that she could win the competition.
“It’s rigged, the judges clearly decide who’s going through before the dance off has even taken place,” one wrote.
“Don’t agree with the dance off results tonight on, how can someone who has been in the bottom countless times be finalist, it’s completely rigged,” a second said.
“Rigged beyond belief. So dance off mistakes or errors don’t matter now?!? The judges made sure Fleur was in the final,” a third added.
While a fourth said: “Will was the better dancer on the night Fleur was awful she was stompy with mistakes the judges are useless, strictly is rigged for Fleur to win.”
Strictly fans have also been left fuming that the controversial category is allowed in the final and have claimed that it is “ruining” the show.
The Couple’s Choice was introduced in 2018 to allow the pairs to choose from one of three styles and have more freedom in the routine.
Couples choose from Contemporary, Street/Commercial and Theatre/Jazz to show off their celebrity’s moves.
