People of equal questionable ability to his have reached quarterfinals before, my real issue with Dan is his ROTTEN personality and his UTTERLY MISPLACED SELF-RIGHTEOUSNESS about who he is and what he represents in this show.
This leaderboard is proper dodgy. I don't know what is going to happen with the dance off now.
Most ridiculous moments of the evening: Shirley Ballas telling Rose she did well to block the noise of the cheers for Rhys out, Daniel going on about fish fingers then immediately showing off splayed hands, Shirley Ballas giving Dan a 9.
They are aware of how poor Dan is compared to the rest I hope. Giving him a 7, 8s and a 9 and AJ 1 point less is starting to look like paid promotion for their breakfast show.
