Fans aren't happy.

Although the X Factor has long been tarred with rumours that it is fixed, the same is happening with Strictly this year as viewers suggest the scoring is completely unfair. Many have taken to Twitter to share their disbelief at some of the decisions made by the four judges, with people pointing out that scoring this year is 'inconsistent'. For example, Gemma Atkinson's performance was heavily criticised by the panel and it has been suggested that there is favouritism towards Debbie McGee. https://twitter.com/Jo_mac50/status/929659037175697408 https://twitter.com/gemmiejewel/status/929487833148125184 https://twitter.com/MonkeySocks92/status/929480845966049281 https://twitter.com/Hema_ByrnesArmy/status/929517781825019904 There was anger that Gemma's performance was undermarked and this seems to be a common opinion among fans. https://twitter.com/HausofDylan95/status/929478499701751809 https://twitter.com/MsAlisonMay/status/929636441457610752 https://twitter.com/MonkeySocks92/status/929480845966049281 Others have said that there's something strange going on with the marking and the comments made aren't reflecting the scores. https://twitter.com/sue_simmonds/status/929480199175069697 https://twitter.com/MonkeySocks92/status/929480845966049281 This development comes after last week's results shows when Aston Merrygold left the competition and this didn't go down too well with Strictly's many fans. Aston had scored highly week after week and yet when it came down to it, Mollie K who dances with professional partner AJ Pritchard was saved instead. It's all happening this year.
