Shirley Ballas, Darcey Bussell, Craig Revel Horwood and Bruno Tonioli told the stars how much they loved their performances using variations of “love” and “I loved it”.
Presenter Tess Daly, 48, also got in on the act, asking Shirley, 57, if she “loved” former JLS member Aston Merrygold’s efforts.
Shirley said: “I loved it, loved it and loved it some more.
“I did mention about your feet last week. They’re slightly sickled. Don’t make me mention it a third time. But other than that, I loved it.”
