You have to have the 'likeability' factor...and although there is nothing nasty about Alexandra she simply came across as over dramatic and the public saw it as 'fake' and OTT. All the 'WOW' and 'omg' as though she was shocked about being admired by the judges...she knows she's good but I like many found it stomach churning.
Debbie was as good...she deserved it as much as Alexandra...people have their reasons for voting or not voting for someone. Why didn't they vote for Debbie?...it certainly wasn't anything to do with the colour of her skin..
The GBP like to see the underdog win...someone who has come from nowhere where their improvement has grown week in and week out..Debbie and Alexandra have been of a high standard from week 1 based on previous dancing experience...boring. I think Gemma should have won based on tonight's show.
That's reality TV for you...nothing to do with colour.

I think Debbie played the faux surprise game too at her scores ..also an accomplished dancer so a really annoying game when after years of dance they knew they were in for nines and tens. Thought Gem's reactions were very mature and normal by comparison. Ironically the actress, but not playing the stupid drama queen.
