Shortly afterwards, James responded to Dan’s tweet in view of his 321,600 followers. “100% agree Dan - I’m also surprised by the results but at the end of the day the public have the power to save,” he penned.However, James then went on to admit that he did have one small complaint about the way the results are determined.“My only hang up is when the judges get the leaderboard wrong - which does make a difference to who goes - fact,” James argued.Replying in the thread, Twitter user Frances commented: “Especially with three ties on the leaderboard giving couples at the bottom more judges points than if there were no ties. “The more ties there are, the more points the couples at the bottom get.”Responding to this, James wrote: “Exactly - I would have mentioned that but away and didn’t see the leaderboard.”Last night, Richie Anderson was the second contestant to leave Strictly after he and partner Giovanni Pernice failed to survive the dance off.
