Underwood slams unfair 'Dancing' judge

Michael Underwood has accused Dancing On Ice judge Nicky Slater of awarding points "randomly".

The GMTV presenter was voted off the ITV1 show on Sunday following a skate-off with model Melinda Messenger.

Speaking to The Sun, Underwood questioned Slater's allocation of points, saying: "Unfortunately this series there’s been a lot of random scoring - inconsistencies - Nicky’s scoring especially.

"He’ll be giving Donal 4.5 and then Ray 5 and the difference between Ray and Donal is not .5. You want to see consistency."

Underwood added that female contestants had an easier time than male skaters because they did not have to attempt such challenging moves.

"The girls can get away with it - they can be lifted, they can hold positions, they don’t have to have as much feet on the ice," he said.
