Nope Len , I agree with OP. Rachel was the best and Denise and Louisa were also well ahead of Lisa.
"Lisa was the best female not to have won" - No.

Lisa's Latin was competent, never great. Her ball room was damn good. Her At was not good, not for an At, and not in my book AT ALL.
Lisa is a good dancer. She is not a great dancer.
Rachel especially, Emma and Zoe, are unforgettable.
Rachel is a great dancer, whether she had a personality or not.
Streets ahead of Lisa. In my opinion.
Lisa's showdance was an unforgettable dance though.

Multiple votes for Lisa don't count.
Only two different people have voted for her, you've posted the same comment several times.
LOL@U.
Lisa's ballroom was brilliant, but her latin was overrated by the judges. Rachel was very good at both.
Rachel is by far the best female not to win in my opinion. With Lisa, Zoe, Emma and Denise the next level down - each having strengths and weaknesses.

Are you hoping that by repeatedly chanting this on this thread like a mantra, you'll somehow sneak the idea to a few others by osmosis?
Cos if so, it aint working.
Rachel.
Who could forget Lisa's extraordinary show-dance?
The judges liked Lisa because she worked hard & implemented their comments.
But Rachel was naturally more gifted.

Where's Rachel then? I didn't see Denise and agree with Emma, but I honestly think that Rachel is a fantastic dancer. Her Tango and At, Waltz and Foxtrot, and Rhumba, whatever your taste, were all extremely good - surely.

I mucked up my post, I have now edited.

Again?
*Screams Rachel Stevens at the top of my lungs*
What I have never been able to fathom is why Lisa was such a hit with the judges. She didn't do the tour. Clooney never showed. They knew she was unpopular with the public (given the frequent appearances in the bottom two). And anyone could see that although she worked hard and improved a lot she wasn't in the same league as Stevens. Their favouritism remains one of the most inexplicable outcomes in reality tv for me.

I have a great deal of respect for your judgement. And I agree with you.

Hey hey. This poster must be joking.
I adored Lisa's showdance. It was one of the worst things ever to have graced Strictly.

You summed it all up perfectly (as usual!)

A quieter, more reserved personality is still a personality in my book.
Doesn't make them dull, despite what so many continue to say.

I was a massive fan. I thought she was wonderful, and reserved is fine with me if they can produce dancing that passionate and wonderful.

Well said, being OTT is not the only personality type in existence.
