I'm switching off - it's not a competition it's a Natalie exhibition.

It's just a borefest now. Natalie obviously going to win, it's not a competition it's an exhibition.

So unfair on the other celebs.

At least X Factor may be more of a competition.

Ricky Whittle was head & shoulders above on his year. Look what happened

Well, if you are switching off there's not much point in any of posting on this, is there?

Unless you want us to agree with you, which I don't.

Well, thanks very much for letting us know - I'm sure the whole of the Strictly forums just HAD to learn such a tragedy.

Well perhaps if the rest of them trained as many hours as Natalie as she trained the most last week they would get better. The fact that Natalie trains the most shows that she wants to be a better dancer like most things in life the harder you work the better you get.

You don't know that Natalie is going to win at all, unless you have a crystal ball or some kind of psychic powers to look into the future?

If you'd watched this show in he past then you'd know that the viewers tend to favour the dancers who progress and develop over the course of the series.

This just sounds like a flounce because your favourite got underscored. Am I right? you'll probably be more at home in the X Factor forum where flounces like this happen on a weekly basis. They are always back the following Saturday funnily enough......

I thought most of them were overscored apart from Natalie and I think the judges got hers bang on. In fact, she should have got 10s going by some of the other overmarkings.

Yes. There's no getting around the fact that she is exceptionally good, had she performed that rhumba in a few weeks time I think she'd have got straight 10's for it.

Very unlikely she'll win. There are dancers who will improve far more and garner more public votes. She'll get to the final as she'd never lose a dance-off even if she had zero votes from the public but she won't win.

Winner could be Ashley. He has ability, can improve, seems nice enough, has the 'baby-factor' and is a man. Way too soon to call but Natalie won't win and Ashley could be worth a punt.

Keeeeeeep watching!

Yes, the handsome man will always beat the good looking girl with the great personality.

He didn't win because he wasn't popular with the public & was up against a more popular but basically poor dancer in the final who won. If you imagine Natalie V Mark in the final & Mark won.

I think Natalie is amazing, do I think she will win, probably not

IMO she will not win despite being the best Dancer.

Me too, especially if the flouncer can incorporate a heel turn and a head toss. Greater degree of difficulty ergo more points.

Seriously though I am sure I have read this thread before with Denise in the name slot or am I imagining it?

Well, the voters do seem to favour the fellas, I think.

And they don't like the effortlessly proficient. A generalisation, I know. But seems to hold true throughout the years. And I've watched from Day 1.

No, I don't think she will either. The problem when you start out so good is that there's nowhere else for you to go.

I think Sophie or Ashley will win. But honestly I wouldn't rule out anyone, remember Chris Hollins?

Yes,I might put a bet on Ashley, I think he has it in the bag.

What? Where? What? Where do we sign up for the flounce? They've moved the sign up table and I can't find it.

I've got my fabulous pashmina ready and I've been practicing my dramatic sigh and everything. I've even got all my insults for the others ready.

I'm ready I tell you. I'M READY.

Trouble is I love Natalie.

There was a change around series 3 when someone seemed to get the collywobbles that a male celeb would never win. We never had all this in series 2 when Jill was just as much ahead of the field ... but series 3 spent so much time telling us how hard it is for the males celebs - and doubly so for the sportsmen - that there's no going back
