Why did I know this was going to happen!!!! Could they not have given him someone else. Did they think he was the only one that could handle her. I love Ann to bits but I honestly don't think she can win it. Surely, they could have given Anton a younger celeb, it was soooooooooo obvious from the outset. Do the beeb never want him to win. Or is it this payback. Anton is 'MY FAVOURITE and always will be.

I agree it was so obvious from the start, but it was good that they left it between Anton and Vincent at the end; Vincent was probably the second most likely to get her, so at least it wasn't an ABSOLUTE no-brainer.

I knew as soon as it was confirmed Ann was in the show that Anton would be her partner, mind you I do get the impression that both him and Vincent are the 2 pro dancers with the best sense of humour and sense of proportion about the show

Hoorah, someone who feels the same as me about these two. They can laugh their way through things and not get too tetchy with their partners.

I was hoping that Brendan was going to be lumbered with Ann just to see his reaction. I was absolutely GUTTED when Brendan was paired up with Michelle.

Yes but they will be guaranteed a long run due to public sympathy !

He got far last year, therefore he gets a dud this year. Swings and roundabouts, same thing happened to Ola because they don't want her to win twice in 2 years!


And it's not that the BBC don't want him to win (they've still kept him in the show!), it's that he can't win, as his lack of ability to teach Laila Latin demonstrated. And the BBC don't care about the pros anyway...
