My first assumption would be Arlene has reasons for quitting, rather than being dropped.
Alesha is going to have to convince me. I suspect she may need a backing team.
Actually Mike Ellard, as leader of a worldwide dance class organisation, would be a very strong contender for the judging table. IMO he should be delegating loads of stuff, and work on presenting himself as a dance authority figure. I would have him learn from the Internet Marketing Gurus, Richard Branston, Anita Roddick etc and be the face of the business, with regular video and textual blogs to spread the news, speak at businees meetings, write articles and even a book (or lend his name to them) etc.
He could give a authorative TV interview on why/why not Alesha should be a judge, why WCS should be amongst the dances, why MJ should be the first group dance they all learn in the comp. It is where many start their dance adventure.
