Arlene Phillips has said that the Strictly Come Dancing judges were right to get rid of Jo Wood, on Saturday night’s show.
Phillips told The Sun: “She just has no idea what to do with her legs. Brendan [Cole] looked like he was moving a plank of wood, not a body. All I could think was the clocks have gone back and so has Jo.”
The choreographer continued: “She can’t work out her right from her left. She has no understanding or awareness of it. It is often something that goes back to childhood.
Strictly come Dancing star, Jo Wood has been struggling with her nerves ever since she joined the competition. It probably doesn’t help that she can’t actually dance!
As a result of her shattered nerves, she sought advice from confidence and nerve management guru Boo Holmes. After a meeting at Jo’s house and going through some important techniques to boost Jo’s confidence (like breathing exercises, having positive body language, and learning to visualise the dance), Jo was noticeably more upbeat through rehearsals.

Ronnie Wood, estranged husband of Strictly Come Dancing competitor Jo Wood, has reportedly accused her of ‘cheapening herself’ by agreeing to appear on the show.
The Sun claims that Ronnie has been texting Jo incessantly trying to get her to quit the show and as the dancer struggles with the flu this week, she is finding it hard to carry on.
A source said: “Ron has been getting on Jo’s case for agreeing to appear in Strictly.
Strictly Come Dancing’s Jo Wood is said to be having hypnosis in a bid to conquer her nerves. Jo has been heavily criticised by the judges for her dancing style so far and is terrified of making a fool of herself on tonight’s show.
A source told The Mirror: “Jo and Brendan are doing the paso doble and he wants more aggression in the dance. But Jo is finding it hard to be feisty and even if the hypnosis session cures her nerves, it won’t change her style.
Who would have tagged Brendan Cole as a granny chaser? But in an interview with the News of the World, he called Jo Woods ’so sexy!’
“Jo may be 20 years older than me, but this is no mother-son relationship,” he said. “I want the country to be ready to watch some of the sexiest rumbas they’ve ever seen, courtesy of us.
“Jo is so sexy. She is endearing and pretty. I’d heard the bookies said there was a 7-1 chance we’d have an affair. Considering I’m engaged, it’s kind of disgusting, but we had a laugh about it.
