Not been on DS much lately so I've missed this thread - good idea Sid!

Jade and Ian - I love these two as a pairing
Ali and Brian - growing on me
Natalie and Vincent - she is improving and I love her whole take on the show, so refreshing

I also like Phil and Katya - but just can't see it

Cheers Jude - nice to see wo much support for Nat & Vinny

Jade and Ian
Ali and Brian
Natalie and Vincent

Chris and Ola
Laila and Anton
Ricky and Erin

These are the three I look forward to most, I always enjoy their perfomances and as great as Ali and Ricky are they just leave me cold, I would love to see team Cola pick up the glitterball this year!

Totals up to tonight (before we loose a couple)

Jade is storming ahead and Phil has overtaken Ricky G AND Laila

Jade & Ian 65
Chris & Ola 47
Ali & Brian 43
Ricky & Natalie 37
Natalie & Vincent 27
Phil & Katya 19
Laila & Anton 18
Ricky & Erin 15
Craig & Flavia (still just the 1)

Jade, Ali & Ricky W

How can Chris be above Ricky W & Ali? He's a sweet, short man, totally devoid of sex appeal & a a bit rubbish at dancing... not terrible, but not great...

1. Ricky W.
2. Ali
3. Tuffers

Ricky G
Natalie
Jade

He seems to be very popular with the voting public by all accounts, a bit like Tuffers, and it's as if he's just waiting for the dancer to burst forth in him like Goughie.

I hope the voting public is more in line with DS this week and keep Jade in. She's proving really popular on here, but I'm a bit nervous the better known folk will get all the votes.

I will be voting for Jade like mad........

Chris is popular because he and Ola are a fab team and having a lot of fun and taking the audience along with them. Long may it continue.

Ricky W
Phil
Natalie

Well thats a relief......only 1 person had put Craig in their top three so this week wont affect the scores at all......

1 - Ricky and Natalie

2 - Jade and Ian

3- Natalie and Vincent.

1. Laila and Anton
2. Ali and Brian
3. Ricky W and Natalie

I agree completely, they are way above the others, would love tuffers and Chris to sneak through though

Yes, agreed, although I wouldn't object to Chris and Ola being in the final, they were adorable tonight.

Chris & Ola
Ali & Brian
Ricky & Natalie

My ideal final at the mo. would be:

Chris and Ola
Jade and Ian
Natalie and Vincent.

Not necessary on the dancing ability, just the degree of engagement and sense of enthusiasm and joy they bring to the floor.

Jade and Ian to win...I'd love Ian to win.

Ali & Brian
Ricky & Natalie
Jade & Ian

Jade and Ian
Ali and Brian
Ricky and Natalie

Chris and Ola
Jade and Ian

Jade and Ian
Chris and Ola
Ali and Brian

Jade & Ian
Ali & Brian
Ricky & Natalie/Natalie & Vincent

Best dancers definitely Ricky W, Ali and Jade. But personality-wise Jade, Chris and Natalie. Ricky W has the personality of a plant and Ali does that Bambi look which makes me curl. Best, most fun partnership Chris and Ola, closely followed by Jade and Ian. Best teacher/choreographer Ian. The ones I want to win? Jade and Ian.
