I believe Natalie can win SCD even though she is not my fav. Her dancing is good and consistent week after week and I think she is more popular with the public then Ali or RickyW.

I wouldn't mind if she did. Not my favourite but she tries hard.

I would love for her to win but if not I'd like to see her, Phil and Chris get as far as possible, as I enjoy these couples so much more than the rest.

I think if someone wins because of personality/charisma and not just on ability it'll be Chris and Ola (though I prefer Natalie and Vincent).

hehehehehhehehehheheeehehehehe

Thats the funniest comment ever on this board

Have you been having the afternoon Cherry early today?

You wouldnt be saying that if you'd bet on her

After my supportive comments to you about Craig?
Can really go off some people

I don't buy this hype around your new fav Chris. I believe Natalie is much more popular with the public along with Vincent.

I am only being honest.

I did appreciate your support with Craig but as the great Alisha says I got to be honest with my comments and to suggest that Nat can win this is a bit ridiculous

But you are my favourite now and I wish you and Natalie luck

Natalie winning? God help us. There is nothing graceful about her dancing at all. She also never lets Vincent have a work in edgeways.

very, very ungraceful- heavy footed but made to look frumpy and bigger than she is (!) - big feet......too many problems with her dancing (she looked KNACKERED after the first 30 secs of the quickstep last night) - she wont manage the showdance - they will have to get her doing forward rolls and stuff ()

but

she has lots of fans.....so maybe

Please go no

Noooooooooooooooooooooooo.

Whilst she is obviously popular, she is far from being one of the best dancers. Hopefully, as we inevitably lose some of the better dancers, the people who cast their votes based on ability will consolidate on one of the more talented celebs. I admit that Ricky W or Ali might not win due to an apparent lack of public support, but perhaps Jade or Chris? They seem to have a balance of ability, effort, enthusiasm, personality and the awful 'J' word so beloved of the voting public.

Please, anyone but Natalie.

vincent is very popular - together they must get loads of votes - they could make the final

I'd be over the moon of Nat & Vinny won

Don't think it'll happen though

If Sonia from Eastenders wins it will be a complete travesty.

Why does everyone just skip out Laila

Laila is more popular than Jade and I think a better dancer than Chris.

I don't think it's just about Laila... I think, especially in her pairing, people vote for the professional dancer too.

Tony Beke is a bit of a marmite character. Some people will really like him, but a lot of people will consider him to be a complete arse.

She could be the greatest dancer in the contest, but with Tony forcing his "personality" upon the voting public, it could be his fault if she goes out.

Well in general when I look in people's top three in various threads on various messageboards 8/10 have Laila and Anton in there somewhere. Ali and Jade have both been in the dance off whereas Laila hasn't, can't wait to see her back in hold this week

Oddly enough, they're my favourites - and not in Brucie's sense of it. I left them out, though, because I felt that they might have been a bit too contraversial too pick up many 'floating voters'.

Laila is miserable and shows no personality when dancing IMHO !!!!!!

And who does?

Phil Tufnell with his same expression for everything?
Natalie Cassidy with her gawping mouth?
Craig Kelly gormless as ever?
Smug Ricky Whittle?
Boring Ali Bastian?

I could go on..
(I actually like Ali and Natalie - was just using examples)

Laila shows emotion.

I'd be happy with Natalie winning I do like her, I have no idea why I like her so much but I wouldn't mind her winning. I don't see it happening though.

Love to see Chris, Laila, Jade or Phil win. I don't know why I can't like Ali and Ricky but I wouldn't bother voting for either. Wouldn't mind them winning but would prefer someone like Chris or Laila who I much prefer watching win it.

I think Laila has a very strong personality.

She's fun, feisty, a bit of a moaner at times, but far from boring.

I find her quite intriguing. I can't take my eyes off her.
