Who amongst us doesn't like a good conspiracy theory , well it may not rank well amongst the 911 Kennedy or the Diana ones, and wont be of any interest to people outside the UK, but I think the majority of the people have missed a good one in the resignation of john sergeant from this years strictly come dancing (dancing with the stars everywhere else).
Political journalist John Sergeant was by far the peoples choice to win this dancing competition. They voted for him in their droves week after week. Despite being the professional dance judges bottom place selection, and much to those same judges annoyance. Yes in the British public collective consciousness, sense of mischief, love of the underdog, call it what you will, they kept this nice guy in the competition.
However the British public have been cheated of their Saturday night fun by John Sergeants shock resignation from the competition this week. He has given many press conferences, and appearances on TV explaining his decision, but here is where I think the public are missing a chance for a great conspiracy theory fest , or gate (gate being the prefix we add to all conspiracies). Yes in my opinion we are missing the John Sergeantgate story.
Here is the evidence, strictly come dancing or dancing with the stars, is one of the BBC's biggest money making shows, rightly or wrongly (wrongly in my opinion) the BBC thought that John Sergeant, a lesser dancer, was making a mockery of the format and possibly damaging a profitable cash cow, and whereas in recent years they just would have massaged the public vote to get rid of him, at the last minute, recent attention to this practice has made this impossible to achieve this year. So left with the only option available to them they pushed him into resigning, After all he does work for the BBC. Lets see how much work they push his way in the future, for following the party whip so to speak.
The British public should feel cheated (I know I do), by John Sergeantgate. and if the BBC don't want to play by their own rules they should get rid of the public vote entirely, and if not we (the public) should stop voting.
The people should not let the BBC and powers that be get away with removing John Sergeant, People say no to John Sargeantgate and vote with your feet (or fingers in this case), and stop calling in to vote in these reality shows. If they don't want to play nice we should say in the words of Eric Cartman in south park, screw you guys we're going home.
