1. Georgia and Giovanni - Sweet, consistently great and an improver.
2. Anita and Gleb - Fearless, exciting and nice partnership.
3. Helen and Aljaz - Hard worker, graceful dancer.
4. Katie and Anton - fun partnership, elegant dancer and pulled off a great rumba! A little inconsistent though.
5. Jay and Aliona - great technical dancer, unassuming and humble personality. Somewhat dull.
6. Kellie and Kevin - consistently strong performer, but can't warm to her too much.
7. Peter and Janette - good dancer, seems unrehearsed when it comes to technique. OTT and ingratiating as a personality.
1. Jay and Aliona
after that it gets really hard because I like all the women and fairly evenly - it just depends a lot on which dance they have this week.

4. Anita and Gleb
5. Katie and Anton
6. Kellie and Kevin
7. Peter and Janette
1. Jay & Aliona - that jive still puts him top for me!
2. Georgia & Giovanni - her ballroom is becoming quite stunning, but jury's still out on her Latin for me
3. Helen & Aljaz - see comment about Georgia
4. Anita & Gleb - I don't think she's been as vastly undermarked as lots of other people seem to think, and her Paso was never in a million years the best Strictly's ever seen, but she is good.
5. Kellie & Kevin - I don't think her Quickstep was as good as the score it got, but I love her enthusiasm
6. Katie & Anton - I wanted her to be brilliant, but her Latin just isn't, and her ballroom isn't living up to expectations either.
7. Peter & Janette - love Janette, can't stand Peter, and he is undoubtedly the worst dancer left.
1. Jay / Aliona
2. Georgia / Giovanni
3. Anita / Gleb
4. Helen / Aljaz
5. Kellie / Kevin
6. Katie / Anton
7. Peter / Janette
And that takes into account that I don't like Kellie & Kevin. On the dance floor they often behave like toddlers on haribo... But I do think Kellie is a better dancer than Katie so I'm being as fair as I can to her.
I don't have any favourites. I judge purely on how they perform the dance and how they look in performing that dance. Based on what I have seen to date and averaging over their recent performances I have the following:
1) Georgina and Giovanni
2) Anita and Gleb
3) Jay and Aliona (I had to put Anita above Jay because she is consistent in the energy, effort, performance level while Jay is more variable).
4 to 6 are quite close:
4) Kellie and Kevin (She dances well but she seems "frumpy" - maybe it has something to do with her body shaping)
5) Helen and Aliaz (Helen needs to bend her knees more and be more grounded in her movement)
6) Peter and Janette (he has improved but had a downer last week)
7) Katie and Anton (weakness in the latin dance - maybe Anton's fault)
For me this changes week to week (as per a moving average).
1. Katie and Anton
2. Anita and Gleb
Love these 2 as they are so classy and elegant with very little dance experience
3. Kellie and Kevin
4. Georgia and Giovanni
Best of the rest. These 2 must have danced before but are consistently strong
5. Jay and Aliona
6. Helen and Aliaj
7. Peter and Janette
Meh 😬
1. Jay and Aliona - Just love watching these two together, no emotion Utter B******s
2. Anita and Gleb - The fact she has no previous experience, she nails every dance
3. Team GG - Coming up quickly on the rails maybe peaking just at the right time, love her joy at getting good scores
4. Helen and Aljaz - Aljaz is so good to watch, Helen shows she cares
5. Katie and Anton - Katie is so graceful and Anton is a throwback to a more refined era
6. Kellie and Kevin - She is a great dancer but I wish both of them would calm down a little ... way too loud for me.
7. Peter and Janette - Just can't take to Mr 'Jive King' Andre, the sick bucket is half full before he even appears. Can I just say .... I like Janette
1. Jay and Aliona - bull's B*******cks for me
2. Katie and Anton - because of Anton
3. Kellie and Kevin
4. Helen and Alijaz
5. Anita and Gleb
6. Georgia and Giovanni - despite her being a Manc girl like me, she just reminds me of why I left
7. Peter and Janette
1. Jay and Aliona - Can't get enough of them and i can't believe how much i like Aliona this year (shes always been my worst female pro behind Ola but i adore her now)
2. Anita and Gleb (have been in this spot since Jeremy left but have felt a smidgeon of irritation with Glebs 'i love me' routine and Anitas earnest 'i don't care if he shouts i just want to dance' this week so they may not stay 2nd for long
3. Helen and Alijaz - as long as she gets on top of the crying
4. Georgia and Giovanni - i like him. Her not so much
5. Katie and Anton - its starting to look very shaky with a hint of desperation now. Let down by Anton
6. Peter and Jeanette - i'm ashamed to admit i liked him before watching this year
7. Kellie and Kevin - i used to like Kevin too I have to FF past him now as he irritates me to homicidal levels. Poor Kellie suffers from the partnership (although i find her irritating and in your face too but i'm blaming Kevin and the need to over emote to get a look in)
My top 3 have stayed pretty constant throughout, after that I don't really care for any of them but bottom 2 is also usually the same and has been all series...
1 Jay & Aliona
2 Helen & Aljaz
3 Katie & Anton
4 Georgia & Giovanni - they have improved but she is still too excitable for me
5 Kellie & Kevin - she has been screwed over completely with themes and wardrobe but still keeps smiling about it!
6 Anita & Gleb - far to earnest for me and I don't enjoy their training VTs, not much fun going on. Their dances don't engage me and I find myself topping up the wine or nipping the loo when they're on !
7 Peter & Janette - had no opinion of him before he started but from the QS on I could see his technique was awful event though he gives his all. Worst dancer left and seems to be doing it solely for the publicity.

2.) Katie & Anton - She's very elegant, and seems lovely
3.) Helen & Aljaz - Helen always comes across well to me
4.) Anita & Gleb - Gleb lets the partnership down a bit, but Anita seems nice
5.) Georgia & Giovanni - I neither like nor dislike her, I often forget she's there
6.) Peter & Janette - A little disingenuous, but not necessarily a bad person
7.) Kellie & Kevin - It's exhausting just watching them
1) Georgina and Giovanni
2) Anita and Gleb
3) Jay and Aliona (I had to put Anita above Jay because she is consistent in the energy, effort, performance level while Jay is more variable).
