Of course they will put Ali or Ricky top - depends on who is counted expendable doesn't it

Chris will get the oost public votes with Laila getting the next highest. Ali and Ricky - well it must be tight between those two as to who is the least popular

Oh yes.

Conspiracies on this forum always seem to depend upon some poster's "favourite" being hard done by, or some other poster's "hated" coupled doing better than expected.

Quite sad really.
You're still desperately toeing the coporate line I see.

Quite sad really.

After reading Ricky's blog, I'm going to be controversial!

1 - Ali
2 - Laila
3 - Chris
4 - Ricky

Laila vs Ricky in the DO

Ricky eliminated.

If Chris gets the most votes and Laila 2nd highest we could be in for a very interesting night next Saturday

If for eg..

Judges:

Ali
Ricky
Laila
Chris

Public:

Chris
Laila
Ricky
Ali

Chris = 1 + 4 = 5
Laila = 2 + 3 = 5
Ali = 4 + 1 = 5
Ricky = 3 + 2 = 5

Meaning, if Ricky is more popular than Ali, or if Ricky gets scores higher than Ali but Ali is more popular, we could have a Ricky VS Ali dance off.

LOL?!

What did he say in his blog?. He has the easier dances this week compared to Ali...his AS was practically a foxtrot and he's far better at the latin than Ali will ever be.

i dont think there should be a dance off next week because i fear they will get rid of Chris if he is doing the Samba they are in trouble

I believe the judges will judge according to what they see. There is no way to predict what order the couples will be in on the final leaderboard.

And besides it makes no difference what order they are in on the leaderboard, as it is the pubilc who decide who ends up in the dance off.

Aren't they doing two dances next week? If so, it's not quite such a disaster because Chris has the waltz as well. However, it's practically a given that all couples will score more highly on their ballroom option so he could still be in trouble given that all three of the others are better ballroom dancers than he is.

This is why I think judges will place Laila firmly last to get
Chris 2+4=6
Laila 1+ 3 =4
Ali 3 + 2 = 5
Ricky 4 + 1 = 5

Ricky and Laila DO Laila goes home

This is his blog...

now rock and roll, again,as in the salsa,as soon as choreography is not controlled by natalie,we suffer. Now unlike the rest of the couples we didnt get the head choreographer ryan as we were supposed to,on the day we were supposed to get him,he was told to return to a couple he had been with already and we missed out. Was a little put out by this as everythin was supposed to be even as in we all were to have equal time with him as none of the pros had done the new dances. we had to get help from assistants to show us some moves that natalie could link together in a routine,so well done nat for a routine that you had never done.

Now as some people including the judges had noticed,out original routine was quite tame compared to our usual efforts and even the dance off. We had been dancing this routine like the dance off version all week and did so in the dress run where we were first observed by this weeks choreographers. finally getting time with them a couple of hours before the live show,they told us we were too wild and that we needed to tone it down.Apparently rock n roll is more cool and relaxed and so we performed it how we were told and sadly were crucified by the judges for not letting go.

I don't trust the judges to put their personal preferances to one side and treat everyone the same

Is there any way we could get this thread to Claudia on ITT- put a little bit of pressure on the judges to play fair and not show any favouritsm

But Ricky hasn't done his popularity any favours - I reckon Ali is more popular than him now.

Alesha said in an interview last week that she wants Ali and Ricky in the final.

I think it will be either Laila Vs Ricky or Ali Vs Laila, with Laila going.

Laila has a very difficult latin to do and I think she will struggle a bit in the AS as it is 60% out of hold.

If it is a two couple final (and I'm still hoping it won't be ), then I think it will be Ali and Ricky. I can't see them being in the dance off together and no matter who else is in the dance off with them Ali or Ricky would be saved.

I'd put money on Laila & Anton not dancing their AS 60% out of hold - at least not what we would think of as not in hold. I do think Anton can be very clever with his choreography though when he needs to be.

To prevent an Ali and Ricky dance off.
I suspect they have to place Anton and Laila last on the leader board whatever they do on the night.

Chris has the samba what other dances do the couples have?
They just have to mark what they see. Anton and the American smooth and Anton and the salsa are not words that go together. Chris is unlikely to do anything better than Ali or Ricky if injury or PC plod don't intervene. Ricky and Ali might each beat the other depending on how good their latins are and whether their ballrooms fall in the same or reverse order.

Chris will get the oost public votes with Laila getting the next highest. Ali and Ricky - well it must be tight between those two as to who is the least popular
Who else could you put top? Its a dancing competition and those two are streets ahead.

There's no reason for any of your second paragraph to be true. Chris may or may not get the highest vote, Ali may be first or last, Laila could be first or third.Ricky may have no votes or his lackluste performance saturday may explain why he didn't get them one week. More people vote as it matters more and although things have got worse over the years the weaker singers and dancers tend to do less well . In this case though you might wonder whether Nats vote will go disproportionately to Chris.

Austin had a dud dance and opened the door. Lisa might have been overmarked but she was still better overall when it mattered. Rachel would have been further ahead of Lisa . The public voted for Tom over Austin and Tom got two good dances in.
