Well, it's clear from the dances we've seen so far, haven't we?

So far, there are three contenders:

1) Jason - hard-worker and appears genuinely very humble, excellent cha-cha-cha;
2) Harry - good technique, not expecting that from him at all, because he did a so-so Paso for CIN last year;
3) Holly - maybe first night nerves got the better of her, but I think she has a lot of potential.

But I hope to see the following go as far as possible:

1) Chelsee - she's very natural mover, and I think she'll do both latin and ballroom very well, but she may loose out because she's not very well-known and not very articulate;
2) Anita - she clearly enjoyed herself, and wished to see her do well, but I doubt she'll cope well with faster latin numbers;
3) Robbie - usual sportsman first performance, hopes he works hard and maybe he'll be really good in his ballroom (and perhaps Paso);
4) Rory - a surprise, if he works on his facial expression then I think he has a lot of potential, but latin might be his downfall.

Jason, Harry and probably Holly. I want Chelsee in the final but I am not even sure if she is going to be in the top 5.
I dont want Holly in the final . I think that if Anita latin is good she can make it to the final.

Holly, Chelsee and Jason

I think: Jason, Harry, Holly
I want: Holly, Harry, Chelsee

I think Lulu, Nancy, Robbie and Edwina will go in the first few weeks as I don't think they have aptitude for either Latin or Ballroom.
After that, I think the Latin dances will finish off Anita, Dan and Audley - it will simply depend on the order of the dances as they might be able to coast by on a few weeks of ballroom.

Rory I think will be reasonably competent in both ballroom and Latin. Alex will be rubbish but she'll stay in until the middle of the competition.

The final 5 will be Russell, Jason, Chelsee, Holly and Harry, with the finishing order depending on:
Flavia's ability to keep things interesting with Russell's choreography
Whether a decent storyline will emerge for Chelsee and how her VTs are edited
If Aliona can turn over a new leaf choreography wise, and if Harry can come out his shell a bit
How boring Jason is in his VTs
Whether Artem can work around the height difference, and also find a show persona (he seems a bit of a hard taskmaster, but that was tempered last year because of his affection for Kara).

It's far too early to be making predictions just yet.

The obvious three would be Jason, Holly and Harry but there have been a few who have been surprisingly good (Anita, Rory and Chelsee) who could develop to challenge them on dancing ability, assuming that counts for anything as, on past form, the public are stupid enough to vote Russell Grant into the final.

No chance

Maybe like AW. Week 10 Max.

I think it will be Jason, Harry & Anita. Holly & Chelsee look good but I'm not sure if they'll get the votes.

Think: Jason,Holly Harry

Want: Jason,Holly,Chelsee or Russell

The final four will be Jason, Harry, Anita and Holly vastly superior and that unlikely to change.

I really hope it is not as predictable with Harry, Holly and Jason sailing through to the final three.

I have high hopes for Anita and hope she can pull in the high scores and public vote.

Its far too early to be sure obviously....but...

If Jason keeps up the standard of dance then I would be very suprised indeed if he isnt in the final.

Rusell will be in for many many weeks.

Anita and Robin will be a very popular couple and could go a long way but a LOT depends on how good she is at the fast latin and I am fearful.....there were bits yesterday where she looked rushed and that was a waltz.

Holly....I think it will depend on how she comes across on ITT and on VT

Harry will have a big fanbase I think.......for those that are not Mcfly fans a lot will depend on how his personality develops....I have a feeling in my water that he might be a bit on the dull side.

Rory could be a dark horse.

The others will be also rans ......but Robbie could be a surpise if he can just get it together.

Australia ... Jason and Holly ... versus Harry
Dark Horses ... Chelsee, Russell, Anita and Rory
If it's only a two couple final - we could have an all Aussie Neighbours final ... Jason v Holly
I didn't know that Holly was distantly related to Benny Hill.

completely disagree about holly. I don't think the viewers would warm to her. It seems like fame has got to her and she is not as humble as other celebs have been (like Kara) in the past. the british don't like that.

So my final are:
Harry
Anita
Jason
Chelsea

I hope it's either jason or anita. jason has got a great attitude and anita will finally show that you don't have to be young to do well! Go on anita! And she seems genuinly nice.

I'd like: Holly, Harry and Jason based on this week, and I think there's a very good chance it could be those three.

My only concern is that Holly's sarcasm could come off the wrong way to some people, and she could be the yearly shock exit.

Lulu and Ola me hopes

I think Holy, Harry and poss alex

I predict Chelsee, Harry and Jason.

Holly may be the best dancer at the moment. There is something missing - I dont know if Artem is going to be able to get her to work hard enough to achieve her best.

Chelsee looks like she will be good at latin dances and has the grace for ballroom, but seemed to struggle when taking big strides in high heels. She could become very good.

Jason can dance and I think will suit most dances. Christina is a great dancer and did some good choreography for Sarge, but this will be our first chance to see how well she can teach.

Harry can learn fast and in detail and I think Aliona will make him a very good dancer.

My guess would be Jason will make the final and Harry may be the best dancer by then.
If Holly and Artem work well together, I could see her making the final.
Chelsee like Harry will have to improve to make it and she may well do that.
Any 3 from that 4 really, but Chelsee would be the surprise.

The final I would like to see would be Holly, Harry and Chelsee.

On this first performance it would have to be Holly, Harry and Jason.
To my surprise, I think Jason might be my early favourite, I was very impressed!

I actually wasn't overly impressed by Holly. Those who impressed me most were Jason, Chelsee, Anita and Rory - I think the final 3 could be Jason, Anita and Chelsee.

I would want to see Holly, Chelsee and Harry, but I suspect Jason might make it in there somewhere.. Holly and Chelsee in particular really impressed me, but I didn't actually see what all the fuss was about with Jason.. (sorry! )

I think Jason for definite and would like Chelsee then for the third I think probably Harry. Unsure on how Holly will do in terms of coming across to the public but I think all 4 should get to the later stages for sure

Let's go through them all:

Nancy - will be out first (ie week 2) unless she does a competent Latin and some of the others "cock up"

Audley - I hate to say it as he could well improve, but I don't think he has enough of a fanbase to save him and will go out week 3/4

Lulu - will most likely come across badly on ITT/VT as the public seem to dislike her, will leave week 3/4

Edwina - will be out week 5, which is a shame as Vincent does do decent choreography

Robbie - as much as I like the guy, unless he improves and does a Darren Gough then he'll be out around week 6

Alex - her One Show fanbase will take her further than she should, but she'll exit at week 7

Dan - he could well surprise us all, but I think he'll leave at week 8

Holly - think there could be a backlash against her, her dance ability will get her this far, but I see her being the shock exit and leaving at week 9

Russell - the party will be over by week 10

Rory - has a fair amount of potential but I don't think he'll quite get there and go out at semi-final stage

Harry - another shock exit at semi-final stage

My finalists:

Jason
Chelsee
Anita

I agree with you, Amy
