Ricky Whittle was clearly the best dancer on Saturday by a country mile. The only other contestant to come close was Jade.
However, I dont think it's a foregone conclusion that he will win, the public are a strange bunch..you only have to look at X-Factor.
By the way, I don't think SCD fans can claim the moral highground, and pour scorn on our X-Factor counterparts after Saturday's result. Neither can the posters on this forum, I see that Ricky W is 2nd LEAST favourite contestant in our little poll. Unless all those voting on the basis of "personality" are just visitors.

Personally, I agree that Ricky has a great dance talent, but he's dull and his partner is too hard to warm too. I just don't think he's wonderful.

There are other people that have the 'journey' and come across as better.

I loved Zoe and James and am gutted they are gone, , but I enjoyed Jade and Ian the best on Saturday. She's not a natural dancer, but has improved week on week.

I don't think Ricky has improved markedly enough. He's always been good technically and he'll be in the final no doubt.

Have to say I'm a massive fan of Chris and Ola.
