Surely Chris and Ola deserve the chance to come back and dance as the champion. Does anyone know why he hasn't been asked. It as if they are trying to airbrush him from the memory

Chris and Ola deserve better than this - After all we did have to endure Lisa Snowdon who gatecrashed the final last year

We I would suggest do a written complaint about this otherwise BBC will think that they are OK when they are not. Maybe Cola haven't booked to dance inside the studio, so that maybe the reason why.

It is just so rude of them. Chris was a deserving champion. There is no excuse for it

I was just wondering this the other day. My friend said she thought they might have them in the Charleston last weekend, but obviously not.

Yeah - that would have been logical - who is for lodging a complaint with the PTB - especially as we had to suffer Lisa in the final last year

the previous year's champion usually dances in the final but Tom and camilla danced the first week last year because camilla was off to the Jungle and then GMTV , the the two runners up appearing in the final.

Therefore i'm not expecting to see team Cola - the People's champions until the final, although it would have been nice to see their Charleston as a show dance last week.

It is just so rude- I hope they have the courtesy to invite them back - he is as much a champion as Jill, Ramps, Alesha and Tom

Shows BBC's care for us doesn't it. We are the customers and we are always right. They should book Cola in for a dance really. Stupid producers should know better.

Why is everyone assuming Chris & Ola won't be doing a champion's dance when it's usually in the final?

Last year it was only in the first show of the series because of special circumstances, ie, that Camilla wasn't going to be available on the final because she would have been in the jungle.

Because assumptions and getting worked up without knowing the full story are the way to go! Didn't you know?

Is there seriously no Champions Dance for Cola? Er, why?

Also I'm not happy that no one's mentioned that Ola is the champion in terms of the pros.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not one of those sad cows who's going to bash Natalie because *gasp* she's competitve, but she got to say that she was last year's finalist whilst Ola's said nothing about being actual champion!!

Ramps and Karen did a dance on the first show of the new series, and Alesha and Matt also did a dance on the first show of the series that followed their win, so we have come to expect a "Champions' dance". The logic for last year may have been so, but if there is a formula it would have helped us if this had been explained. The references to Ola and Chris have not been made at all, just a bit disappointing (IMO!).

Ola was mentioned as defending champion on the launch show, and in several interviews since (and the caption on her first ITT interview). So I don't think it's fair to say it hasn't been mentioned at all.

He does want to, he's said so on Twitter.


I'm hoping they'll do a champions' dance later on in the seris - a foxtrot reprise in Blackpool or a Charleston on the semi-final (there are 2 shows that weekend) or final

I agree. The difference between you and me though is that I can see why they would want to.

You might as well airbrush all the tens of thousands, indeed millions at the end who voted for him and Ola as well.

For my part a final between Ricky and Ali would have sent me off to the pub.

We don't know he hasn't been asked. As has been pointed out, it's quite likely he'll perform in the final like in other series. Lisa (and Rachel) performed in last year's final because Camilla was unavailable to dance with Tom.

Not that I'm bothered; I was never a fan...!

I agree that Ola and Chris are much more likely to dance in the final. It's the pro's jobs to show one week what we can expect to see danced the next.

They normally get the pros to "show" next week's dance.

Also while Cola's Charleston was fun, it had a certain style to it.
The pros were able to show more variety in their routine.
