I know this is about TXF but I thought this was an interesting piece which possibly has some relevance to Strictly.

“"We believe people tend to be biased when there is a sequence. You are influenced by the fact that you remember people depending on whether they were singing first or last. Memory can have a huge effect on how we judge performances."
The overall conclusion of the study was that acts are in the most danger if they sing second or third in the running order.”
