So proud - really, really proud. Loved, loved everything about Louis tonight. Flavia is a godess!

Fantastic result - the champagne corks are a popping in this happy house.

Well done Louis and Flav.

Congratulations to them, they were a joy to watch.

I find it ironic that people have criticised denise so much for having an advantage and yet louis virtually did a show dance of a gym session he did not deserve the win.

I really feel denise danced the best on night and kimberley has probably been better last few weeks than tonight but they both deserved to be above louis

His show dance knocked spots off the others. His win was well deserved.

I am so pleased for him. I thought he was the most genuine tonight. He said some lovely things about Flavia. I know the others did about their partners but somehow his seemed from the heart.

So so pleased... Especially for lovely Flavia!

Sour grapes! He was fantastic - the best of the 3!

Shut it!

Fantastico

I like it when people with no dancing background excel and win the show...........

I voted for Kimberley, but I'm so pleased for Louis, a worthy winner for 2012.

A Great Final.

Best show dance ever and delighted for Flavia. Would love to know who came second, would have been happy with Kimberly either.

agree OP... brilliant!!

Yeah? Hundreds do not agree with you. She was really very average - and always has been. Mind you, I'm biased because I know what I'm talking about when it comes to dance.

I choose the best dancers.

I know just as much and you don't!

He's not a bad dancer - just not as good as Denise or Kimberly

Their showdance blew us away tonight, fantastic. We're so pleased they won. They all did well, but the best team won. Anyone who wants to be miserable about their win is just being mean.

Well done to both of them!

It is not easy for a man to be in the final competing against ladies that are being led in their dances. He has learned to dance from being a non-dancer, he has learned to lead his partner, and he has learned to really enjoy himself.

See What I Mean, your analysis stinks! He was not the best at Ballroom, Denise was by a mile, and Kimberley was the best at Latin.... They gave Louis the biggest advantage tonight by firstly picking that little crowd pleaser 'Dirty Dancing' and secondly presenting him topless!, which in the past has been heavily criticised , but then he is an Olympian, he can do no wrong! Suggest you start re-evaluating on the dance content not the gymnastic moves!

The sour grapes on here is not a pleasant dish. Try and be pleased for the team who won fair and square. You're just showing yourselves up otherwise.

And you do (Who the hell are you Shirley Ballas, Hazel fletcher or Gaynor Fairweather )?

He pulled it out of the bag when it mattered - probably the only time where you could genuinely argue that he had an advantage in his mental toughness. Very well done, I'm so happy for both of them!

At the start of the final tonight, I thought the race to the glitterball was between Danni, Kimberley & Louis but I didn't actually think Louis would win it.
I didn't think Denise was in the running because it became obvious that the public weren't supporting her, for whatever reason.
I thought Louis has been competent and consistently good throughout the competition, the problem was his performance but he had made significant improvement over the last few weeks. He really upped his game tonight and his showdance was unforgettable. Truly something I did not expect to see. Flavia took a big risk with the routine and it paid off.
They are deserved winners.

Well done to Louis and Flavia! He thouroughly deserved it and his showdance was the best of the bunch.
(with raspberries) to the sour-grape people- I in your general direction!

Congratulations Flavia and Louis, a well deserved win. Their showdance was in my opinion the best of the night by a mile.
