In view of previous thread about who was the best person never to have won I thought it would be interesting to see who people supported in previous series and if anyone's got a favourite this year.

I didn't really watch the first two series but liked all of the finalists in series three - with Zoe being my favourite by a nose from Colin just because I didn't really like Colin's rhumba (or the showdance for that matter).

I backed the winning horse in series four from day one pretty much mainly because I really liked Karen the year before and when I saw she had a good dancer I wanted her to win. The fact he was cute might have come into it too.

Loved Matt DA in series five (although Alesha was the worthy winner) and Austin in series six (although I did spend money trying to keep Jodie in and I liked Cherie too). Was willing Austin to do well before he even set foot on the dancefloor as loved his dry sense of humour and I've always liked Cherie anyway.

Last year my favourite emerged as Jade - I still think she was the only dancer whom was both brilliant and entertaining and the competition lost a lot when she was forced to withdraw. However I did think that entertainment deserved to triumph over talent that year although I won't have been gutted by Ricky W victory.

This year I'm firmly in Dr Pam's camp and I hope her trailblazing continues and enough people like her for her to get the votes when she needs them.

I supported everyone this forum seems to hate lol!

Emma Bunton, Kelly Brook, Lisa Snowdon, Gethin Jones, Ali Bastian!

Prob hate is too strong a word but definately disliked intensely!

This year I'm supporting Kara and Gavin so can see it being the same this year!

Did'nt watch the first two series.S3 was Colin and Erin from the beginning.Darren Never did anything for me and the only dance i liked from Zoe and Ian was the tango plus i loved Colin's QS and Rhumba and many other of his dances He was Robbed
S4 I admit to being probably the only straight women watching who did'nt fancy Ramps although i did like him and was glad when he won i supported Louisa and Vincent that year.Loved their Jiive and her enthusiasm to dancing
S5 Gethin (although Alesha was a worthy winner ) I loved the fact that he improved as the competition went on and thought he seemed like a nice guy plus i love Camilla
S6 Tom and Austin.Truth be told i thought Austin was better but cos of the year before i was determined to get Camilla the glitterball so i voted for Tom and Camilla most weeks.
S7 Ali and Brian.Loved their dances and was totally sucked into the fairytale romance even though it has not had a fairytale ending
S8 Matt and Aliona.I love her and i have always loved him.Think he is a great dancer plus seems like a good guy and he is the best Blue Peter Presenter ever IMO

I've only seen last year and this year so.

Last year, I loved Chris and Ola so was chuffed when they won. I disliked Natalie and Ricky but liked Ali and Brian. I also liked Zoe and James.

This year I'm loving Matt and Aliona, Pam and James and Scott and Natalie. If any of those won I'd be happy.

Lol, I swore this year I wasn't going to support anyone cos it gives me nothing but grief - but lo and behold!

I've probably jinxed Kara.

1 - Can't really remember, possibly Lesley Garrett (zoi...)
2 - Denise Lewis
3 - Colin & Zoe
4 - Mark & Louisa
5 - Alesha & Matt & Kelly (oh the final that never was....)
6 - Austin & Rachel
7 - Jade & Ricky

Don't know where I am yet this series. Am leaning towards Pamela, Kara and Scott, but at this stage last series my favourite was Zoe Lucker, so we shall see.

Gethin wasn't strongly disliked I'd say not compared to Gaby, Matt DA and Kelly anyway. There didn't seem to anyone last year whom didn't seem to get on the goat of large numbers of people either so I wouldn't say Ali was anymore disliked than Ricky W or Chris - although I was glad she was voted off in the semis because I thought then she was chronically over-marked.

You're probably right about Gethin, but I still feel Ali should have been in the final - with Ricky W.

The point I'm trying to make is I have a habit of picking the most unpopular celebs!

I was impartial until series four when I supported Mark Ramprakash - couldn't stand Matt Dawson

Then I supported Gethin in series five - again couldn't stand Matt Di Angelo!

This year I am liking Jimi, Scott and Pamela. Again my "Matt phobia" has reared its head as I cannot stand Matt Baker!

Series 4 - Louisa and Ramps

Series 5 - Stephanie Beacham and Alesha and Kate!

Series 6 - Rachel Stevens

This year - Jimi, Felicity, Scott, Patsy (and possible Tina).

[LIST=1][*]Claire Sweeney[*]Denise Lewis[*]Colin and Zoe, but as Zoe didn't make the final it has to be Colin. Erin and her muppets lost it for him. I liked James too - thought he made huge strides.[*]Again I choose three. Mark, Louisa and gentle giant Peter Scheimel[*]Gethin Jones - also had a soft spot for John Barnes and if Kelly Brook hadn't suffered bereavement I think think she would have been a real contender. Gabby Logan could have been very good; pity her over competitive attitude alienated the viewers.[*]Rachel Stevens - out on her own. I was also in the minority of those who liked Lisa - particularly her ballroom. And then of course there was Mark Foster. I admired him as a sportsman and readily admit that influenced my support.[*]Jade Johnson - I think she would have proved herself as the best all rounder. She was already improving by leaps and bounds when she was hit by injury. This could have been Ian's best chance of taking a partner all the way. Also loved Natalie's enthusiasm.[/LIST]

I didn't watch the first 4 series, although I've since seen quite a bit of series 4 and I'd definitely have supported Mark & Karen

Series 5: Alesha & Matt, Matt & Flavia and Kenny & Ola (just for sheer entertainment and improvement). Also loved how far Leticia came in the competition.

Series 6: Cherie & James, Rachel & Vincent. But I do think Tom & Camilla were worthy winners, especially after that amazing showdance, which is one of my favourite ever dances on Strictly.

Series 7: Chris & Ola. No contest that year in my eyes! Also liked Jade though, she would have been a contender if she hadn't got injured I think.

Series 8: Pamela & James, Jimi & Flavia, Matt & Aliona - that would be my dream final

SCD2 - Roger and Camilla, Denise and Ian - but I didn't actually vote at all that year until the final.

SCD3 - James and Camilla, Darren and Lillia. Only voted for the Tango and the Paso out of James' latin though and still have nightmares about his jive Voted for D+L in the Final.

SCD4 - Matt and Lillia. In spite of being a fan of Camilla's I just didn't take to Ray Fearon at all.

SCD5 - Gethin and Camilla. Never voted in the final as I was still sulking about their exit and didn't actually see it 'til a week after the event

SCD6 - Tom and Camilla...A winner at last

SCD7 - Ian and Jade...lost a lot of interest after they dropped out

SCD8 - Haven't voted yet as I haven't seen the show live and no one I've seen so far has set my world alight

SCD1 - didn't watch
SCD2 - Denise and Ian
SCD3 - Zoe and Ian
SCD4 - Ramps and Karen (may have been mildly obsessed )
SCD5 - not particularly invested in anyone, probably Alesha at a pinch
SCD6 - Austin and Erin (and yes, I'm still bitter)
SCD7 - Chris and Ola
SCD8 - undecided as yet, maybe Pamela and James, but if Jimi ups his game possibly him and Flavia

I think I'm the only one who did not like Alesha!

The best dancer ever was Jill (complete natural)

kelly was great - her jive was the best on SCD

Louisa was undermarked, she had good performances. Vincent's choreography of the paso was outstanding!

Other good ones:
Gethin, Tom, Racheal, Zoe, Colin.

This year I can't make my mind up! There are alot of good ones. The standard goes up every year.

Series 1: Christopher Parker. (I know, I know. I'm sorry. I admit, I had a huge crush on him back then and that was the only reason I watched the show to begin with. So I should thank him really. LOL)

Stragely, I can only vaguely remember watching Series 2 & 3

Series 2: Jill & Darren, though I did like Denise & Ian, too.

Series 3: Zoe & Ian / Colin & Erin.

Series 4: Mark & Karen, Emma & Darren, Louisa & Vincent. I also didn't mind Matt & Lilia either. Needless to say, I enjoyed Series 4 a lot.

Series 5: Gabby & James, Penny & Ian, Kelly & Brendan, Leticia & Darren, Gethin & Camilla, Matt & Flavia and Alesha & Matthew. Again, I enjoyed that series a lot too.

Series 6: Jodie & Ian, Austin & Erin. One Austin was eliminated (He and Erin were probably my joint fave SCD couple ever, along with Ramps & Karen), I moved my support to Tom & Camilla.

Series 7: Rav & Aliona (I don't know why. Looking back now and realising just how bad he was, I'm a little ashamed. LOL), Jo & Brendan (Just because I thought she was so sweet), Zoe & James, Jade & Ian, Ali & Brian, Ricky & Natalie and Chris & Ola. I went through the entire series without having a solid favourite at any one time, which I'd never done before. I did give my support to Jade just before she withdrew. I'm not sure whether my lack of a solid favourite was because I was overwhelmed by the good ones, I just underwhelmed by the series on a whole. LOL.

Series 8: I still haven't fully decided. I like Matt & Aliona, Pamela & James, Kara & Artem, Jimi & Flavia and Patsy and Robin a lot. (Patsy and Robin mainly down to my love for Patsy.) It's still incredibly early in the competition and my favourite flip-flops depending on the week. I'll either end up with a solid favourite within the next couple of weeks, or I'll do what I did in other series and still not have one by the final.

Series 2 - Denise & Ian. Can't argue with Jill winning but have always thought Denise was a little underrated by some.
Series 3 - Loved Colin & Erin. I have mixed feelings about the outcome as I liked Darren & Lilia as well but always thought his reward should have been to get to the final. Having said that his showdance was obviously much better.
Series 4 - Loved Ramps & Karen. Only series where i had a strong favourite from the start, although I also had a soft spot for Louisa and would have preferred her in the final.
Series 5 - I liked Alesha & Gabby from the start so once Gabby was out i was behind Alesha & Matt all the way.
Series 6 - Cherie & James and Austin & Erin were my picks. I did love Tom's showdance though.
Series 7 - I was torn between Jade & Ian and Ricky & Natalie last year and was gutted when Jade had to withdraw. And equally gutted when Chris & Ola won.

Series 8 - I have 3 faves so far, Kara & Artem; Pamela & James and Scott & Natalie. Matt & Aliona haven't quite hi the heights of their 1st dance yet so my support for them has slipped a little.
