Yeah, they're dropping him off and then getting on with the real dancing

I don't think so. All the remaining dancers are better than Craig and the ones in the middle of the table - Natalie, Chris, Ricky G and Tuffers - are big personalities. If Craig avoided the dance off again next week someone good would have to go.

Really, which week should she have given up then? Week two, when he scored 30? Week three when he scored 33? Or week four when he scored 34?

Craig's highest score is 24. Darren only scored less than that once, in his very first week. There is absolutely no comparison.

Craig is a nice chap and trying hard, but in order for HIM to get to Blackpool, a more deserving couple will have to get the heave.

This is not fair, IMO, no matter how likeable Craig and Flavia are and how hard they are trying.

A campaign to 'Get Craig to Blackpool' works against the other competitors, even if it is only meant in fun.

I actually thought Craig's brother, dancing beside him at training whilst holding his toddler son, moved much better!

its a pathetic dream.....put the poor guy out of his misery

HOW RUDE
He is not a dancer.........he is trying
HOW RUDE

Bhoy, if nothing else, I admire your dedication.

Pity there isn't a FFS smilie.

A pathetic dream suggests that is unlikely to happen.I would say now thats its more likely that Craig will be in Blackpool than he wont

Remember he would have probably have had to be in the top 4,5 for that last 2 week's of the public vote to finish out of the dance off

He obviously whether you like it or not has great public support

You think Phil is much better?

Yes. Much.

Absolutely. I also think he's better than Natalie and Ricky G (which is my own opinion and I respect not the opinion of most before people have a go). I really fear that Phil might go next week in favour of the 'Craig going to Blackpool' angle. Not sure that's fair and I may cry if Phil goes. Hope he has ballroom so he has a fighting chance at least.

It's Craig's birthday next Saturday how soon before that gets mentioned. I fear for Team Cola next week, in many ways they are my favourite couple, but I think they will go before Tuffers, unless it is a Zoe and Jade bottom two.

Very much so.

I always forget about team Cola but I'm a Phil fan so I think if it would have been the other way round and I was a Chris fan I'd forget about Phil but yeah, they're both in the same sort of boat and they both have great potential. Phil needs to sort it out big time though whereas if Chris actually remembered the routine, he'd see his scores rocketing slightly.

If one of the two (of Chris/Phil) went before Craig it would be a slight upset for sure ... not in the magnitude say if Zoe or Jade or Laila even went before at least one of the three of them (Craig/Chris/Phil with my money if I had any on Craig) but still ...

He really isn't going to Blackpool, you know.
Unless it's on a charabanc to see the illuminations.

Bhoy is that a promise that you wont start another thread about Craig ? please say its so.....

Puts head in hands please tell me thats not true...this is getting even more annoying than Toms wedding and that takes some doing.

I will only start another thread if there is a fresh issue to discuss.

For now there is no fresh issue so there will be no more theads at the moment

Oh God we are done for then - We will hear its Craig's birthday and Blackpool. I have watched it back and Flavia even says "your joking I do not understand". It will be so unfair if he goes through as all the others are better as Craig cannot dance and has shown no improvement from week one. What annoys me as well is his personality!!
he does not even chat to the others in the tesspit.

Also worried for Flavia as if he keeps getting through and good people go - he is this years JS and there will be a backlash and that will not be pleasant for Flavia.

Yes agree with the poster who said Craig's brother was better - he was I hope he has a call up and Flavia gets him next year!!

He's the weakest dancer left. I don't care much about those who've gone home previously, but if he stays in at the expense of others left I'll be annoyed.

I remember when Aled desperately wanted to dance in Blackpool. He deserved to, but Julian's begging deprived him of a last three spot.

I have never forgiven Mr. Clary.

And should Craig get there at the expense of Jade I will be equally unforgiving.

Only one thing to say about Craig D U double L DULL!

Everyone is so negative about Craig yet he finished at least 4th amongst the public last night

But he can't dance, doesn't improve at all, is much less entertaining than Jo and no-one I know can understand why he is still there. Even Flavia must be bewildered. Is it a fix of some kind? He is a lovely bloke but he is not good enough for this SCD lark. That's the bottom line. I suppose it might be the Chris wotsit from Eastenders syndrome, but he did give us a good laugh at least.

What does Craig bring to the table? Oh, he has some connection with Blackpool. :yawn: And is it his birthday? :yawn::yawn:
