    It's difficult to know at this stage who will go out as not everyone watches ITT so have no idea how folk are doing.

    I don't have a favourite yet but I was'nt impressed with Vanessa answering the judges back. At least leave it until week 4 or so.;)

    I'm looking forward to the show tonight especially since Bruce won't be there. I like Claudia and wish she could present every week.

    I think whoever finishes 3rd from bottom, unless Julien is in bottom 2, is in trouble.

    Personally, I think it's one of Tony, Julien or Vanessa that's going home.

    I just hope that with so many couples, we get short, training related VTs, rather than the comedy productions which I sincerely hope never reappear

    I have a feeling that Dave may finish low on the judges leaderboard, but he will be ok as lots of people will vote for him. I agree with your 3 suggestions as to who will probably go.

    There will be some comedy VTs. Kristina alluded to filming a 'funny VT' on Twitter and I recall seeing a picture of Natalie washing the training room floor with a cloth.

    I can't really see past Tony going at the moment.

    Charleston and American Smooth is just cruel!

    Even DWTS, which have been known to go postal with their danse order, have refrained from foisting a Charleston on someone in Week 2!

    Bruce is a legend and I have great respect for the guy, but in all honesty I'm really looking forward to tonight because I can see all the couples without silly (and staged) intro jokes.

    That and the "comedy VTs" are the only two things that put me off watching.

    So who is going to be first out and last out tonight? I think the show is going to be back-loaded to stop people turning over for last 25 minutes when it clashes with X Factor.

    I think Deborah could be first out, that cha cha looks promising and I think Rachel or Sophie could be last out.

    Thanks for helping us get the spoiler Heavenly :)

    I think it'll be one of Deborah, Mark or Rachel to kick the show off with a fast latin and a reasonably good name. I can see them leaving most of the other 'big guns' for the X Factor clash, so expect Abbey, Natalie and Sophie rounding the show out.

    Having ill-advisedly consumed all my snacks before the show came on last week, this time I have pringles and Pepsi.

    Quite liked the outfits last weekend, but these lot aren't err...quite to my taste. ;)

    Looks like they had an abundance of garish, patterned material to get rid of, given a few of the outfits.

    I wonder if that really is the dancing order... It would be weird to start with Susanna's Tango, do they not usually start with a fast-ish Latin?

    They make the final decision on running order based on the dress rehearsal, I believe.

    I see - I always thought it would be Friday's rehearsal.

    I assumed that the running order is based on Fridays rehearsal too, because Michael and Natalie said on ITT last year that they were informed that they would be the final dance at Wembley on the Friday.
