I really hope not, I think the only dancer left worse than her is Ricky G. The judges seem to be overly kind to her every week, they never comment on her flat feet.
Natalie to win Strictly
2 of 2
Heaven forfend that Natalie Cassidy wins SCD. That would be a complete travesty. When she dances I have this uncontrollable urge to laugh - she is so bad, she is funny. Natalie has two styles: 1. Gob wide open 2. Nose pointed to the ceiling. She is clumpy, thumpy and jumpy and certainly not a watchable dancer. Yes, she is very enthusiastic - a bit like a puppy dog - but her over-enthusiasm is very, very annoying as it borders on the sychophantic.
I didn't like her in East Enders (can't act for toffees) and I don't like her on Strictly because she hasn't got what it takes to be a graceful dancer yet is arrogant enough to think she can compete with Ali Bastian. Neee naw, neee naw.
The only person from Eastenders who could dance was Jill Halfpenny. I suppose next year we'll get Barbara Windsor.

Spot on!
I love Natalie to bits, but unless she improves her posture she wouldn't make a good winner for me.

Totally agree! She should have gone weeks ago!
It's their popularity keeping them in week after week. Vincent has a huge fanbase out there, and Natalie has been the ideal contestant - cheerful, funny and enthusiastic. I don't think she will win, but probably go as far as Christine Bleakley did last year, which was the week before the quarter finals. I'm pleased they've had a long run in the show, but I don't want them to suffer what John Sergeant and Craig Kelly went through, that would be horrendous. Besides, it would be ironic if Natalie won the show and yet Rachel with all her talent and high scores couldn't. Common sense will prevail in the end ( Hopefully !)
Three times "the one the judges couldn't kill" has reached the final; Christopher Parker, Julian Clary, and Tom Chambers. Last year of course, Tom even won it.
If that happens again this year, it certainly won't be Natalie C & Vinthent, but Chris Hollins & Ola, who make the bookies and Len miserable.

I really like Natalie and admire her but I was blown away by Ali's beautiful performance! I can no longer bear to watch the whole show while Alesha is a judge, so I just watch the clips of the dances after the show. I noticed so many things about Ali, in particular her gracefulness and the elegance of her posture throughout her body, most noticeably her neck and head.
I am so impressed and would be delighted if she and Brian won, even though I am a long-time supporter of Anton and would love to see him lift that trophy. For me, no matter how much I like a dancer, they MUST win on merit alone, and that is why I was so upset at last year's travesty. Camilla and Tom are both lovely people and I often enjoyed their performances, but they should not have been in the final, let alone won it on popularity as they did. Even Len recently admitted that "this is a popularity show".

Well enough of the public don't agree with you, and vote for more than technique, and aren't half as shallow.

I joined this thread to point out that it would be bad if natalie won as she really isn't a good dancer and then I came on your post and found myself swingin completely to the opposite of tht reaction.
natalie isn't the best dancer and it annoys me that she is given consistantly good comments by the judge when I can see very clearly that she si not dancing well .
However I would rather someone who is popular and shows some emotion wins rather than the dancing by numbers that we had last year with Rachel.
Tom is a much better dancer than natalie and having got to the final won fair and square with that showdance . It is after all a popularity contest as well as a dancing contest.
Personally the best winner for me would be a good dancer with a good personality ( who isn't Natalie for me!)
I'd be totally gutted if Natalie won. Theres been no improvement at all as far as i can see and winning on enthusiasm alone would be very disappointing.
I'd prefer a talented dancer to win - Ali or Ricky
And if its to be a personality that wins this year at least lets have one that can dance too - Chris

I really hope that Natalie doesn't win, she can't really dance and doesn't improve from week to week. Her personality doesn't do it for me either, her 'enthusiasm' and the kissing of Bruce's hand etc...urghhh.
I am really surprised at all the comments saying Natalie can't dance and there has been no improvement.
I must be watching a different show to a lot of people, as I'd say that Natalie is certainly not light footed and her posture needs straightening.
You may not like her personality or you want someone else to win, but to say she can't dance or she hasn't improved is just rubbish.
Maybe people need to look at her performances again and keep in mind Vincent doesn't 'do' simple choreography.
I don't vote for Natalie btw.
