STRICTLY fans have noticed a huge blunder from JB Gill as they slammed the judges for missing mistakes.
The BBC dance competition continued on Saturday night after last week's special Blackpool show.
For week nine, JLS star JB Gill and his partner Lauren Oakley performed a Charleston to Yes Sir! That’s My Baby by Firehouse Five Plus Two.
The pair impressed the judges, with Shirley Ballas, Craig Revel Horwood, Motsi Mabuse and Anton Du Beke scoring them a total of 39 points.
But despite them narrowly missing out on the top score, fans at home noticed how JB almost 'dropped' Lauren.
During the routine he flipped her during a lift, and she came down fast and hard on her legs, just avoiding the floor.
Eagle-eyed Strictly fans said on social media: "I’m sure JB made a mistake after the lift there did he not? But still get a 10? Strange it was right in front of the judges too."
A second wrote: "So JB's dance was better than Sarah Hadland's? I dont think so. His knees were not high enough in the flicks and they didnt match his partner. Also he struggled with the lifts. Another example of unfair scoring. Sarah had a better dance."
"It was a very good charleston, but I don't understand JB getting multiple 10s when he definitely went on the wrong foot at one point, and a couple of lift transitions were almost crunchy," said a third.
While a fourth commented: "Erm… I’m no dancing world champion, but JB messed up a few steps I thought?"
Meanwhile, JB opened up how this week has been 'tough' following the funeral of his close pal Liam Payne.
The singer, who first met Liam in 2008 during auditions for The X Factor, reflected on their friendship in a new interview.
He told the Daily Mail: "He was a very good friend. We literally met him when he was starting his journey out. It was before he had the success of One Direction because he was just a solo artist in the same year that we were in The X Factor and got onto the live shows. I just remember him following the boys and me around."
