    I wonder if Kimberley is picking up votes from people who bodyswerved the first part of the series and started to watch three-quarters of the way through?

    Mainly, because personally, I can't understand changing horses half way through the race :o If I bond with a contestant in the early days - that's it ... I stick with them through thick and thin and if they go out before the final stages, I'm not bothered about voting for anyone else.:o

    I cant vote mindy but if I could I would be changing now to Kimberly . I think her progress has been brilliant and that Charlston was the first wow of the whole series for me .
    I liked Nicky , would have thrown a few voted his way for a while , I doubt I would have wanted him to win though in the end

    I don't know. The ratings have been fairly steady throughout the series.

    I do change horse half way through especially if my first choice is naff or has a bad personality or if someone surprises me with a wow dance.

    Last year I was a Chelsee convert from about a month in and this year I am loving Kimberely for her added oomph these last 2 weeks

    But I am just fickle and a flitter jibbet :o:o

    :D:D

    It's good how people are so different, isn't it. :D

    I've had initial favourites that turned out to be plankish :o but I can't just transfer to someone else - I'd vote for both or none rather than just one:D :o

    I usually warm up to people as the series goes on. Loved Alesha & Zoe from the beginning. Hoped last year Chelsee would be good so we could keep Pasha, and she became one of my favourites; same thing happened the year before with Kara. Started off by thinking Gavin was a total prat, ended up by thinking that he was a bit of a lovable prat, with a surprising sense of humour. Never had as big a 180 degree turn on someone before or since.

    Well I thought that , I disappear and people just slope off leaving Tarquin alone with the booze ,look at him just a heap in the corner clutching that bottle of Kirsch

    Flounces off kicking Tarquin in passing ! I was saving that for a black forest gateaux!!

    On the plus side nothing can dim my mood , woo hoo Lisa is out !!!

    Not really she has already been in the bottom 2 and the judges/producers overmark accordingly. I haven't changed my favourite and won't even if he falls over why would the GP?
    Oh loads would, I know I have. Louis was my favourite but though I still like him off the dance floor, he's not setting me alight on it. I can't vote for him anymore, it wouldn't be right.

    You have to remember too that there are viewers who have lost their faves now, some of them will still vote.

    I can't understand why anyone would pick a fave at the beginning and stick with it like glue even if the person disappoints. I thought Sid was pretty good to begin with but seriously went off him, contrariwise I thought Michael was terrible but grew to love him. It's not about changing horses, when you start you really don't know what the person will turn out to dance like or be like - it's a guess.

    I never would have picked Kimberley out as a favourite early on or someone I would be backing but now I am loving everything about her.

    I'm seriously still not appreciating James Jordan though, I would never climb aboard his train even if he had my most favourite celeb ever on board. As he has one of my least favourite celebs it's a pretty lethal combination.

    *Storms in to rescue Tarquin, brush him down and whisk him away*

    Godammit! I drew him a map. I showed him where Waityrose was, I gave him a list and what happened? Nada.

    We are waiting for our Mojitos and Manattans at The Bar and not a Tarquin in sight.

    What have you done to him? :mad:

    *drags him off stage left*

    You've not missed much, to be fair.

    If you remember any or all of Zoe/Emma/Kelly you've about got it covered. :cool:

    Unappreciating the common idea that Kimbers is just the absolute best or something.

    Now I don't mind her, but that AS had hardly ANY dancing in hold, and her spare arm dangled around like a spare tentacle.

    And her Charleston, fine, but not better than either Dani's or Denises (which was wonderful).

    Worth nines.

    The hype of it all is getting to me.

    Which I unappreciate. I like Kimbers but the gushy gush and unreality is cheesing me.

    I'm also cheesed by the multitudinous threads on Van Outen.

    It's all been said, boring now.

    Be gentle with him, I think he might be traumatized, first it was sportsman ogling night then vibrator gate, not sure he is himself right now.
