How many weeks has it been now...8 ? 9 ? And STILL no one has beaten Hayley on the leaderboard. Do you think anyone will beat her this series...will she have a dud week ??

I think if anyone, Daniella might beat her at some point. I hope she does soon, to spice the show up a bit. It's boring when the same couple top the leaderboard every week, and I expect the novelty has really worn off for Hayley too.

I really doubt it.

Suzanne had never beaten Chris by this stage in series 3.

Top scorers by week in series 3:

Week 1 (no boy/girl split): Chris
Week 2: Suzanne
Weeks 3-6: Chris
Week 7: Suzanne
Week 8-9: Chris
Final: Suzanne

Out of curiosity...has any contestant ever been top of the leader board every week till the end of the competition? Did Ray ? I think Ray did...

Yes, Ray was top every week - except for the girls only week.

surely only a psychic could answer this?

Tbh, they are all doing good and improving at their own pace (apart from Mikey at the moment sadly he's lagging behind) But Hayley is also improving, and so far imho no one is good enough to beat Hayley!

I agree that it would be nice for Hayley to have a little bit of a challenge, but someone needs to be good enough to challenege her in the first place- I think if anyone beats her it will be Gary or Daniella though But I also think that Kieron and Danny (especially if he has another breakthrough) could still potentially be the darkhorses! But there aren't many weeks left to catch up and Kieron in particular is yet to break into the 20's I think ??

I think Bonnie was top in all but one week in Series 1 (I'm pretty sure John Barrowman narrowly beat her one week).

But according to a thread which was quickly deleted yesterday (one which showed the alleged combined scores up until last week - and it looked pretty accurate to me) Danniella is not getting the public vote at all. She has come last or second last in hte last 2 weeks.

I wouldn't give too much credence to those figures - the chances of it actually being from someone who knows (and is for some reason willing to put their entire career in television at risk) is pretty low. Though if it were right, a Mikey, Gary and Hayley final is pretty much guaranteed...:yawn::yawn::yawn:

If Gary and Maria can get only 4.5 points less from the judges than Hayley for that awful, badly performed rountine last week, they can surely beat her easily enough if they ever actually do something half-decent...

someone who 'knows' did figures last year which said Ray was not getting viewing votes when ITV released the actual voting figures showed the posts on here to be completely untrue

Personally I think there have been 2 weeks so far that she should not have been top but other than that she has been the best.

She's not my fave BTW

I think Daniella will catch up to Hayley soon tbh

I disagree....I don't think any performance from any other contestants have deserved a higher score...and I'm glad the judges agree with me.
