I didn't really have a favourite. In the final I wanted Rachel to win but wasn't all that bothered as long as Lisa didn't.

Didn't really get behind anyone last year, as I just didn't connect with anyone. I wanted Rachel to win in the final as I thought she was the best of the three.

Initially Mark Foster - I used to swim for my county.

After Mark it was JS - I just loved his tongue in cheek self deprecation before going for the jugular.

Then Rachel because she was head and shoulders above the rest: well not physically, but as a dancer.

She woz robbed.

I hate this putting people in boxes like team cola fans, or Ali, Brian fans. My opinion changes from week to week depending on how the celebs perform and I'm sure there are lots of people the same.

I loved Chris and Ola at the start but now all this cheeky chappy stuff just bores me so much I press the mute button when they come on.

Me too. Although I am a Ricky and Natalie supporter mainly, I still support Ali and Brian and Chris and Ola. Cant we support more than one couple?

I supported Tom last year. Initially supported Lisa but changed my mind after realising her Latin was dismal.

Lisa and Austin. It's all about the partnership and entertainment value for me! Not just supporting Chris and Ola this year though, am also loving Ali and Brian!

I didn't support anybody last year (for the first time since the show started), although I did vote for Tom after his show dance.

Can't be robbed of something you never owned in the first place.

OP, I supported the winner, Tom.

No discernible pattern then.

Last season I was supporting Cherie then Tom. I could see the appeal in Austin, Lisa and Rachel to others though, but neither of the girls had a winning show dance (I was glad Karen alluded to that the other weak - I thought it was just me that had been underwhelmed by Vincent's choreography).

In Season 5 my favourites were Alesha and sometimes Gethin. Season 4 was Mark all the way. Season 3 was Colin and Zoe, and Season 2 was Denise and Aled. I've got better at picking winners along the way!

So why am I supporting Chris when there are two technically better dancers (which I presume is the undertone somewhere)? Well firstly Ali and Ricky are not flawless, although they are very good. But then neither were Alesha or Mark. For me there has to be a combination of technique and some kind of charisma which draws me in; the former is more objective and the latter highly objective. But the latter does matter - I knew that Emma Bunton, for example, was good, but I just didn't find her engaging.

Chris is slightly less technically good than people I've supported in the past, but I've got to the point where I just don't care. I've never enjoyed a partnership so much as I have his and Ola's - their Charleston had me grinning from start to finish. This season has had so much wrong with it that it desperately needs some sparkle, and for me that comes from Chris and Ola. If Jade or Zoe were still around, I might be supporting them. For me the ideal now would be a 3 person final with Chris, Ali and Ricky, with Ali or Ricky winning on merit. But as that's not going to happen I won't feel bad about voting to send Chris to the final if he's still entertaining me.
