Chris and Ola - they just make me smile and he is getting better so he could be a real contender and they have a great partnership
Natalie and Vincent - such great enthusiasm and she is pretty good
Jade and Ian - she has impressed me recently - didn't really rate her to start with

Ali and Brian if any of the above get knocked out

Can I put my Mum's choice in? She has now reached the point where she is looking at the dancers and her top 3 are (in no particular order but, I think she really likes Ali and wont say outright because she knows I want Ricky W to win. ) is:

Ali

Jade

Ricky

Of course you can Laura - send her a <smooch> from me!

This wasn't a ploy to get Ricky W an extra vote though was it

The lad needs all the help he can get! Being serious though I was surprised at her choice because when the series first started she really liked Joe C and Chris. She was the one who actually bought up the topic of favourites and when I queried her about Chris, she "yes I like him but, I want a good dancer to win". In a way I think she's picked up on what a lot of us have said in the forum in that we all like Chris but, up until last night he hasn't fulfilled his early promise.

That's true, but now that he's found his form, I think he's a true contender.

He reminds me a little of Darren Gough - it took him a while to find his dancing feet, but once he did, his confidence grew and his popularity soared (I didn't take to Gough incidentally, but I do love Hollins!).

Like you I wouldn't have a problem with Chris in the final and I do think he would make a good champion. This series is so tense because there are several potential winners who are worthy of picking up the Glitterball.

My top three have remained the same (albeit in slightly fluctuating order) throughout:

1 Jade and Ian
2 Ricky and Natalie
3 Ali and Brian

The best dancers by a milion miles - if any of them won over the Cheeky Chappy/Trying so hard/Vote for my story and you'll see me every week in Now magazine inferiority that's left I'd be happy...

I know they're not the best but I love Chris and Ola the most, there is just something about them as a pair, followed by Jade and Ian, then Ali and Brian.

Chris & Ola
Jade & Ian
Ali & Brian

Those are my top 3 - I am pretty certain that Chris will not win. but I put him top as I really look forward to watching him dance! I love the partnership between him and Ola and that is saying a LOT as I have never been a fan of Ola any other year.

I really like Jade & Ian, great partnership, great dances, great, dreaded word but I'm going to say it anyway JOURNEY!!!!

Ali & Brian - lovely ballroom and if she can just loosen up, maybe some great latin!

Our top three? Does that mean who we think are the best dancers or who we like the best?

In no particular order because I don't know enough about the technicalities of dancing to judge that, the three couples I think are the best dancers are Ricky W & Natalie, Ali & Brian, Jade & Ian.

In order of preference, the three couples I like the best are Chris & Ola, Jade & Ian, Ali & Brian.

Jade and Ian - After Ricky Whittle Jade is the best natural dancer this year.
Chris and Ola - Finally we see Ola can be warm and quite funny.
Tuffer and Katya - My initial favourites but I'm kind of going off them because I think Tuffers is losing interest. Untill another couple cathes my eye I'm still rooting for these two.
