They can be in the final!

If Jake gets into the finale it'll be a farce beyond words.

Agreed. He was by far the weakest dancer last night. It seems he peaked with his salsa in week 2.

Agreed. People seem to think that just be wiggling your hips that equates to "great dancing" but all its doing is covering up for the fact that he's not as good as the rest now.

I'm trying hard to not look in the spoiler thread in the SCD subfourm.

Totally.

I already know who's out thanks to that spoiler thread. Not saying a word though

Even though its on right now I want to find out! haha

I missed the start, I heard they mentioned Louis Smith.. hope he's back on. He was a deserved winner.

I'm totally geeking out here.

Just a little festive bump.

Can't believe it's Christmas Day this time next week!

This year has flown by way too fast.

Ain't it just.

OK, have to ask... who's going to lift the Glitter Ball Trophy on Saturday?

I would love love love it to be Caroline and Pasha. I really want Pasha to lift that glitterball.

I think it might be Frankie as she's never been in the dance off. It really does depend on how well they all dance on the night. Historically, my favourites have very rarely won

Sounds about right. I reckon its pretty even across the board, which is just what you want for a great finale.

5 days until the expensive, blessed event, what are you lot expecting under your trees this Xmas?

I'm not excited in the slightest because I buy myself nice things every time I get paid

All this hassle for one day

I'm expecting a lot of Kate Bush merchandise and old Hollywood films to fuel my obsession. I would like Jack Laugher under my tree *ahem* but that's not going to happen.

It sounds weird but I prefer Christmas Eve to Christmas Day, it feels more magical.

FLACKERS TO WIN STRICTLY! Think Frankie might steal it but I would still be happy with that.

Kate has merch? like Tees and stuff? I'd buy a figurine of her dressed in her "Babooshka" gear.

Er.... no, that probably won't happen, but you might get a poster of him!

I know that I'm getting a blender (it's what I've always wanted, alcoholic smoothies. Go figure) and a whole bunch of little gifts too.

That's because of the anticipation that leads up to the day that's inevitably a bit of a stinker, so Eve is kind of better!

I wouldn't mind seeing any one of the four win, but I have a soft spot for Simon. I know he won't win but I'd love it if he did. I think it is between the ladies to be honest.

You happy Lewis? Your girl Caroline and the Twinkle abs won it

I'M SO HAPPY!!!

That showdance was incredible. So moving and Pasha has finally won! It's only taken him two attempts to win

Yeah great result. Happy for Pasha.

He didn't get his torso out twice in one night not to win!

And for that, we're all very grateful.

I'm sure you've all heard what's happened in Glasgow, tragic

((((((([BBWWF))))))) - scuse me popping in, but when I heard of the crash I thought of you, glad to see you are safe

Aww I'm fine Janet thank you for your concern, it's just so upsetting. Not that it wouldn't be any less sad if it happened anywhere else in the world, but when it's on a street where you've been hundreds of times before it just feels all the more real

How are you doing Mrs? x

I'm fine and well me dear, same as ever! I feel so sorry for those poor folks, also for those that witnessed it all. And the poor soul driving the lorry, as reports seem to say he had a heart attack while driving Yes, it brings it home when it happens on your own doorstep so to speak. Hope all is good for you! xx

Good to hear! are you still running the cat rescue center? (I always thought you were bloody brilliant for doing that btw!)

I'm pretty good on a whole. I will soon reach my 6 month milestone of being employed, yay!
