I will - i must drop some hints to Santa

Wonderful to see him at Blackpool!

Was Sophie undermarked again?

Bought myself some tickets to see Mr. Cole over here in Ireland! DELIGHTED!!!!!

Dottie - I feel Craig undermarked her - I don't she was a 10 or anything but if she had gone a bit later in the show I think she may have scored higher! Especially when you see how the other QS was scored.

Congratulations, Brendan!

Just popped in to say well done, Sophie and Brendan. I enjoyed their dances on Saturday. They deserve their place in the final and good luck to them.

Mr Cole, this evening's choreography was Out-stand-ing! It truly was.

You moved as one - that was a wonderful compliment from Craig!

You and Sophie, IMO, should be in the final. If you are not in the final, just take heart from the fact that you and Sophie did amazing, enjoyable dances. Well done!


There are three heroes in my life: Elvis Presley, Freddie Mercury and Brendan Cole; if I ever met any of them, I would probably run a mile, but they are heroes in my eyes.

Sorry to old timers on this thread that I did not join you this year and well done to all how have been cheer leading for Brendan and Sophie. I have been very busy with work but I have been watching the show when I can and I am very glad to see Sophie and Brendan doing so well in final.

Not sure who will win but our boy can hold his head up high this year. A truly awesome season and many great routines for Sophie.

sorry - wrong thread

What a pity that the judges didn't tell Sophie to dance the Charleston. Never mind. Well done to both her and Brendan.

Brendan you are a gentleman.

So gutted but they have given us amazing dancing over the series. See you on tour Brendan.

Brendan has choreographed some of his best ballroom dances this year,just beautiful.
So sad they're out but thanks for a fantastic series Brendan & it was great they made the final.
Hope he has a great Christmas & 1st birthday with Aurelia

So pleased to see them in the final and gutted to see them go. Brendan's choreography has been amazing this season and I cannot wait to see him live again (front row - five weeks tonight!) I think this season has really shown what a lovely genuine person he is.

If the Charleston had been the judges choice I wonder if things would have worked out differently.

I adore Brendan have done since first Strictly but i think he made a mistake with the showdance - he could have done a spectacular AS/Foxtrot hollywood themed routine for Sophie which she would have been wonderful in. But thats the choices you make i guess - still love him, hoping its not his last year!

I've loved him since the first season and I did wonder about the latin based showdance but I did enjoy it. I really hope he's back next year... the show won't be the same without him.

Im going to see him in his own show in March - hes coming to Ireland for the first time. His leading lady got injured the other day and he announced that Aliona would be taking her place. Cant wait to see him!

So glad you're getting to see him live bb,he's just amazing & lovely to when you get to meet him.

You will absolutely love it - I saw it twice this year and it's wonderful. He comes across really well, totally charasmatic and the dancing is brilliant. Sad to see that Fauve is injured but interested to see Aliona as I've never really paid her much attention.

I was brave enough to ask for a birthday kiss in the Q&A session when I saw the show on my birthday and got one! Tempted to go to the stage door this time, if I can drag my mate there.

Tell him about my post, please ( #882 )

I felt the showdance let him down. So lovely, but rather ordinary compared with the others. When he was in the fnal with Lisa Snowden it was his showdance which let him down. It was too lewd and a bit embarrassing to watch. Love him still, though.

I really hope that he stays on the show. I will really miss him if he left .


Happy Holidays everyone

Brendans tour starts today im off to see him in Cardiff on Sunday.
Anyone else going to any of the dates.Its a long tour up until March

Goodluck to Brendan and all the cast

Next Saturday for me in Manchester, I can't wait!
