  I'm not sure if someone's already done one but thought we could have a tour thread so people can post about the tour like who's won and come runner up.

  
  Thanks for starting this sweetchick Hopefully we'll get some tweets and reports on here during the tour.

  Hello I have just returned from evening show in Birmingham. Same result with Natalie and Artem champs and Abbey and Ali second. I thoroughly enjoyed it all and loved the fun feel it had. All the negativity generated during the tv show seemed a world away. Another plus was that the singers came on to the dance floor to sing amongst dancers during some fab group numbers.

  Negativity to celebs ain't needed in the first place especially when all celebs work their butts off to master their routines, goes to show the tour attenders know more with what the show is about. I went to a tour in Wembley 2009 and it had a by and large positive atmosphere.

  This thread will be great--esp as some of us cannot get to see the Tour this year. Seeing them do it all Live, in same room as you, flaws and triumphs on display, gives the very Positive Vibe! It's the joy of a real experience, just like theatre and concerts. Great idea.

  Never felt the urge to see SCD on tour but I like to read comments from those that have been and enjoyed it.

  Have a great time, sounds amazing!!!
  
  I wonder why Abbey said she wasn't doing the QS and is now doing it.
  I really wish Nat had gotten to do her jive on tv!!

  Full scores here:
  
  Deborah - Quickstep: 19, Cha Cha Cha: 19 = 38/60
  Ben - American Smooth: 24, Salsa: 23 = 47/60
  Susanna - Paso: 29, Foxtrot: 28 = 57/60
  Mark - Salsa: 16, Cha Cha Cha: 17 = 33/60
  Natalie - Jive: 30, Viennese Waltz: 30 = 60/60
  Nicky - AT: 27, Charleston: 28 = 55/60
  Abbey - Quickstep: 30, Salsa: 30 = 60/60
  
  When the couples were dancing, Lisa just sat on a chair at the side reading her script.
  
  Lots of funny moments tonight, but Kevin literally on his knees begging for votes so that his mom in Grimsby would be happy was just brilliant.
  
  Nicky was surprisingly good, neither Deborah or Ben looked good, and Artem was completely outdancing Natalie in their Jive. Susanna's Paso was even better in the flesh.
  
  The music was extremely loud and you could hardly hear the singers at times, and the lights during Abbey's Salsa kept getting in some people's eyes. The group dances were good, although I did feel sorry for poor Nat Lowe, sometimes just moving around the singers before getting to the raised platform with the rest of them.
  
  Susanna & Kevin won, with Natalie & Artem the runners-up. Nicky went over to hug a fan towards the end (thought that was really nice of him).
  
  So glad I went tonight, it was absolutely brilliant

  Last year at Sheffield, Louis went round the arena floor at the end signing autographs and posing for pics with fans.
  He was the only one who did this.
