If I'm not mistaken, I remember you saying last year that you were fairly sure that Susanna or Sophie were going to win.

Abbey ended up winning .
Your point being? That was hardly a minority view on this forum.

Frankie is the right combintion of ability and personality; she's sweet/bland and non-threatening like Louis, Harry and Kara.

There is going to be a big x-factor audience tuning in for the final and that will swing it in my opinion - I believe that was what helped Abbey to the title last year

Frankie, Carolyne and Pixie are all very good, its hard to split them. I lean towards Frankie, but it could be any of them.

Out of the blokes, I believe Mark is going to come on strong, he's starting to gather some momentum. Jake looked odds on to reach the final, I am not so sure now.

I'm enjoying this series a lot - A mention for Steve and Sunetra too - Both doing great, although I can't see either winning.

I think what helped Abbey to the title is that Susanna had both strong support and strong anti-vote (for want of a better word); the latter was diluted by being split between three other couples, but once Sophie was eliminated her voters transferred to Abbey (being less controversial than the 'ringer') and she managed to pip Susanna to the post.

Only a conjecture, mind you.

We are halfway in the Competition

Who do you Want to win ?

Who do you think will win ?


I Want : Steve and Ola to win.

I Think : that Jake will win.
Snap. But I also want Sunetra to win.

If Mark wins I think I'll be done with the show. I'm still furiously sulking about Alesha winning. I hated her nearly as much as I hate mark.

I began the series adoring Jake and I still do but Mark has completely won me over. His enthusiasm is infectious and he is improving week by week. I'm always excited to see him perform and never have him a second thought before this show. His enthusiasm is so endearing and reminds me of Abbey from last year who I had the exact same experience with.

I do think it will be Frankie though and that's absolutely fine by me too because she is a stunning dancer.

Lucky for you, Mark doesn't even stand a chance to make it to the finale.

Really, and what makes you the expert on who will be in the final?

Hate is a strong word to use about someone you don't know.

I despise the ghastly, gurning Tony Beek, I don't know how he has lasted so long, and I hope that this is his last year, but I wouldn't waste my energy hating him.

The bookies go..Jake 2/1, Frankie 9/4, Pixie 7/2 and Caroline 4/1. Quite a gap then to Mark at 12/1. Judy, Sunetra and Steve are all quoted at 66/1 with Alison the complete outsider at 80/1.
Pixie seems to divide opinion, so I can't see her winning. Frankie and Caroline are very competent technically but can be easily forgettable. Jake should have a great chance if he can get his mojo back. If pushed, I would go for Frankie, but I won't be putting any money on it at those odds.

Yes Pixie has been dubbed the ringer of the series. Like Natalie last year or DVO, no matter how brilliant she is I can't see her winning.

I'm no expert BUT I don't see him getting past Frankie, Caroline or pixie; .
And from what I've seen so far , unfortunately a lot of people ( outside Ds ) still associate him with Essex and no matter how good he dances, cries, they're not swayed. ...they still don't like him.

Don't get me wrong, I really like him and love his enthusiasm for the show but I find it rather unlikely for him to make the finale. Jmo

I would like to be proven wrong though....

Only one of Sunetra, Jake and Steve will get through to the final and go on to win.

This years Three Ringahs, Frankie, Caroline and Pixie will come, in no particular order, 2nd, 3rd and 4th.

Am totally baffled as to why Frankie is so popular . She's beyond dull. She has loads of dance experience and brings nothing infectious or exciting to the show . She will win I want caroline and pasha to win

Caroline has had dance experience before as well, and she's hardly ranking high in the personality stakes either.

I'm incredibly bias towards Caroline so I really want her to win. I also have a lot of money riding on it so if she wins it's win/win/win. I did she has a good shot at it, I say Frankie is her biggest competetion. I think Jake peaked in Week 2 and isn't going to get back to that standard and that Pixie isn't popular enough to nab the glitterball.
