"Speaking on today's Paul O'Grady show, he said: "I'm happy because I won't make the final. I'm just okay and the others are great."

I think even "okay" is stretching it a bit!

You don't say Craig!!

Glad to see the penny has dropped and realism has kicked in! Maybe it is all about Blackpool for him!

Craig thinks he's okay at dancing.
Aw.....Bless!

Poor Craig - a tad deluded at best!

Won't make the final?

Gosh, he's full of insight, this boy!

Apart from that blind spot about his dancing abilities, of course,

No S...t, Sherlock! (lol)

JJ

OMG

No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am devestated that Craig wont make the final - not!!!!

Bless him, poor little love

Ah but now he's said it perhaps everyone will feel sorry for him because he's trying so hard and is full of determination they'll vote for him.

Might be a double bluff!

It is nice that he's finally acknowledged in public what he probably knew anyway. You can't help liking him - not the dancing perhaps - but him.

This a naked plea for him to be (undeservedly) propelled to the final by the fans who have voted for him so far.

I think you are right!

If those darn judges could just refrain from being nasty to him one week, then perhaps we'd be rid of him. I am sure if they said "nice try" not half as many people would vote for this nonentity!

There is young pro dancer that might be very relieved if this is so ,

Free the Flav ,Free the Flav

Well I'm up for starting a Free The Flav campaign too! Bless her heart!

Kelly: "I won't make the Strictly final." No, mate. You won't. Bye, now.

Pinky , I don't think they have been overly " nasty" to Craig , and Len makes up, for any untoward comments with OTT marks !

He's just a bit slow on the uptake isn't he?

I thought Bruno went out of his way to be unpleasant last week, myself. And when he did so, I got this sinking feeling that Craig would, despite his inability to dance, be going to Blackpool. Turned out to be right

I thought this when I saw the comment

I for one will be very happy for him to stay in Blackpool as he loves it so much.

Yes please. I'd really rather not see his scrunched up little face, ever again.

oh yes please!!!!!

Free her from what

Cannot help liking him!!! Well I can.
I liked him for the first couple of weeks when I thought he was nervous and would improve etc. However as the weeks have gone on I cannot stand him he is so boring has no personality and I find him arrogent about the fact he feels he can dance and he does not accept what the judges say as well (unlike Chris who listens to their comments each week etc)

Ricky G said on IT2 tonight that it was sad that Zoe had gone Craig did not. I hated all his begging for Blackpool and he really puts me off SCD.

Exactly I do not think they have been really nasty to him either when I think of some of the things they have said in the past to Celebs on SCD now that was nasty!!

The guy basically can't say anything without it being twisted against him now can he? That be the curse of being the poorest dancer left I suppose. Arguably he's only lasted a week longer than he should and people are blowing their fuses.

Yep, you gotta kinda feel sorry for the guy ... cos he's not even really good at being bad. Some people blowing their fuses and promulgating grand theses on the end of civilisation as we know it cos the Great Unwashed keep some two left-footer in Strictly past their sell-by date for a couple weeks is part of the fun of the show every year really. But it's not like he's hopelessly bad enough to even wind them up properly.

Craig's more like some poor old mongrel you've spent a few weeks trying to teach tricks - he tries to do them, never quite succeeds, but sits there wagging his tail expectantly waiting for a treat every time. He's not even rebelliously aware he's winding anybody up ... just waiting for his biscuit.

Blackpool will probably be his biscuit, and he'll disappear without much of a bark or a whimper. Kinda sad for him. He can't even do bad well.
