Strictly sensation Brendan Cole has been chatting about Shayne Ward's send-off from the beloved BBC dance contest, describing it as "harsh".
Brendan also said that Nancy Xu would have every right to be upset at their earlier-than-hoped-for exit, as he addressed the judge's decisions after the dance-off.
Speaking candidly with SkyVegas, Brendan questioned judge Shirley Ballas' rationale for saving Wynne Evans after his 'jollier number', suggesting it was a misstep for the show - which he believes should judge solely on technical merit and performance quality.
Over the weekend, Shayne and Nancy found themselves in the dance-off for the third time and landing at the bottom of the leaderboard with a score of 30.They were up against Wynne and Katya, who had scored a total of 32 for their performance.
