Strictly viewers accuse judges of undermarking fan favourite

• Strictly Come Dancing viewers were shocked on Saturday night after fan favourite Kelvin Fletcher and his professional partner scored 35 points for their racing-themed Salsa. The routine, which they performed to Let’s Hear It For The Boy by Deniece Williams, featured plenty of Kelvin's signature hip action, as well as some adventurous lifts, and many people watching at home thought the Emmerdale star had been undermarked by judges Shirley Ballas, Craig Revel Horwood, Bruno Tonioli and Motsi Mabuse.Kelvin was a last-minute addition to the show after Jamie Laing sustained an injuryFans took to Twitter to make their views clear, with one writing: "It’s so clear Kelvin is by far the best in this competition yet if he’s been top of the leaderboard at all it can only have been once. Which is clear nonsense from the judges," "Really thought Oti and Kelvin would be a 40!" "AMAZINGGGGGGGGGGGG 10.10.10," and: "I would just give Kelvin a 10 for his hips alone." Regardless of the score, another viewer summed up the feelings of many viewers by posting: "They are SO much fun to watch!!! Best partnership on this show hands down."RELATED: X-Men's Famke Janssen makes a surprise appearance in Strictly front rowThe Emmerdale star performed a lively racing-themed SalsaIt was the eighth week of the series, and the last one before the pivotal weekend in Blackpool next Saturday.
