Strictly Come Dancing 2026 fans have hit out at the judges after Lawrence Robb and Jowita Przystal received a shockingly low score for their latest routine.
Viewers were left feeling sorry for the Emmerdale star, with some admitting they “just wanted to hug” him after what they branded a harsh assessment of his performance. It was a marked difference from last weekend’s routine.
It’s not the first time the judges have been criticised for their scoring this series.

Lawrence Robb criticised on Strictly Come Dancing 2026
Lawrence and Jowita took to the dancefloor during tonight’s edition of Strictly, performing a jive to Fatboy Slim’s The Rockefeller Skank.
But the routine failed to impress the judging panel, who awarded the pair just 19 points after picking apart several mistakes.
Craig Revel Horwood was particularly critical, saying he had expected to see a much better jive. He described the performance as “flat-footed” and pointed out that Lawrence was “completely out of time” at the beginning.
“It wasn’t your best dance,” Craig added.
Motsi Mabuse, however, was keen to acknowledge that Lawrence had managed to recover well despite the errors.
