Strictly Come Dancing's Arlene Phillips has hit out at this year's finalists, saying none of them are as good as last year's winner Alesha Dixon.
The judge said that, despite being a good dancer, Rachel Stevens isn't a 'bubbly, bouncy girl' like Alesha and she accused bookies' favourite Tom Chambers of 'over-acting', reports The Sun.
Arlene said: "What's odd about Tom is, one would think, because he's an actor, he would know how to portray a dance.
"But we can see him acting the role and that's off-putting."
She added that Lisa Snowdon was the most likeable out of the final three but admitted that she would have preferred to see Austin Healey, who was voted out several weeks ago, win the series.
What do you think of Arlene's comments? Do you think this year's finalists match up to last year's winner Alesha? Let us know what you think...

Arlene will say anything to get har face in the news, a face I might add that looks like a chickens bum which matches her bum like judgements. I wonder if she would be good at anything else and would take the slagging offs that she has given.....................????

Posted by: derek.binyatton on Sat Dec 20 08:58AM | Report abuseThis is just the latest in a long line of unworthy comments made by judges in this series, Arlene and Len the worst offenders. Craig seems to have been the only one trying to maintain any degree of professionalism, unpopular though his criticisms have been. The whole thing has now descended into farce. Exfan
