I think that Pamela will probably finish 2nd as I think she will be more popular with the public when it comes down to there choice only

Pamela & James 2nd
Matt & Aliona 3rd

I agree with Scott 4th and Kaira 5th

Anne won't win it. She may come third though. Kara & her partner (whatever his name is) and Matt & Aliona will be the final. You can't rule out Sssssssscott pushing into the final three

I wish Ann was in the bag

I think Kara will come second, she's brilliant.

If Ann does win it (I still don't think she has it "in the bag" though.) I think:

Scott 2nd
Kara 3rd
Pamela 4th
Matt 5th (Only because I fear choreography will let him down. I wouldn't mind being wrong.)

Aside from Ann winning (which I don't want, but I know is a possibility), I don't mind which order Scott, Kara, Matt or Pamela finish. I like all of them.

You not still supporting Craig, Bhoy? How fickle.

You never know, Anton may try to get her on stage by shooting her out from a cannon next and it will go terribly wrong

Are you going to recycle her?

Ann won't win it, public vote alone can't save her when it comes to the semi-final double elimination if the judges are careful enough in their marking and if you believe that she's not topping the viewer vote, which I don't believe she is and one report put her 3rd. Even if she isn't now, I doubt fans of other couples who are knocked out at her expense will be rushing to back her. And even assuming that a travesty occurs and she does make the final, I think any of the 'big 4' would beat her.

My prediction for the series would be:

Winners: Matt & Aliona
2nd: Kara & Artem
3rd: Pamela & James
4th Scott & Natalie
5th: hopefully anyone but Ann, but if she has to make the semi then so be it.

... does the MOD have that much C4?

Ann won't win it!!
I can't decide on the order of Matt, Kara, Scott and Pamela, but I doubt Ann will outlast any of them. She probably won't outlast all of the others either, SOME of them maybe, but not all.
In fact she will probably be out next week because of the backlash.

I'm beginning to wonder if she has, got enough public votes to stay in. I demand a recount ! I wish they'd give us the results - the numbers.

I dont think she'll win it....

I think Matt and Aliona will. I would love Pamela to be in the top three (and preferably win but I know that wont happen ) but my prediction is a Kara, Scott and Matt final.

Saying that, if Ann is there I think it will be her against the boys

If you had read the NOTW today you wouldnt have been surprised

Matt Baker 19%
Scott 17%
Anne 15%
Kara,Felicity & Pam 11%
Patsy 7%
Gavin 6%
Jimmi & Michelle 2%

Thats how its been going most weeks in the publc vote

Ann won't win.

I bet you she will

Ann will not win - I will hunt her down and destroy her before that happens I expect MI6 will be on to me pronto - seeking to harm an (ex) MP It will be worth it

I love Ann, but don't think (or want) she'll win.

Scott, Matt & Kara....they'll be the last 3, and quite rightly too

She might make the final, but she won't win.


Mmmm. Not sure about that.

This is how the scores add up -

Judges' Leaderboard
1. Kara and Artem: 36 - 10
2. Matt and Aliona: 35 - 9
3. Pamela and James: 33 - 8
4. Jimi and Flavia: 32 - 7
5. Michelle and Brendan: 30 - 6
6. Felicity and Vincent: 29 - 5
=. Gavin and Katya: 29 - 5
=. Patsy and Robin: 29 - 5
9. Scott and Natalie: 28 - 4
10. Ann and Anton: 17 - 3

If the NOTW is correct then -

Public Leaderboard
1. Matt Baker 19% - 10
2. Scott 17% - 9
3. Anne 15% - 8
4. Kara 11% - 7
= Felicity 11% - 7
= Pam 11% - 7
3. Patsy 7% - 6
4. Gavin 6% - 5
3. Jimmi 2% - 4
= Michelle 2% - 4

That would mean the overall results were -

Final Leaderboard
1. Matt and Aliona: 19
2. Kara and Artem: 17
3. Pamela and James: 15
4. Scott and Natalie: 13
5. Felicity and Vincent: 12
6. Jimi and Flavia: 11
= Patsy and Robin: 11
= Ann and Anton: 11
5. Michelle and Brendan: 10
= Gavin and Katya: 10

So the NOTW can't be correct, or Gavin not Jimi would have been in the bottom two with Michelle.

Can someone please check my calculations?

And the GBP can vote: Safety net, no safety net, or Brucie trying to catch her.

Thanks BuddyB, I was about to do the same calculations, because at first glance the NOTW scores seemed wrong.
You prove that.

Aren't those NOTW figures from a poll they conducted and not the actual scores?

I really don't know. The NOTW leaked the actual scores a few years ago and I assumed that is what had happened today. Ignore my calculations if that is not the case today.

This would not be how it works I don't think. The public vote ranks from 10 through 1 as it is very rare the exact vote will be equal like the % given in the poll. Therefore, you wouldnt have a tie on 7 and 4 in the public vote so the combined figures you give won't be accurate. Unfortunately you can't really tell where people are until the later stages when it becomes obvious.
