I adore Strictly and never miss but I've never voted. I expect it's because I usually record it and watch it whenever I can.
Do you vote or not?

Sorry, I forgot the ? In the title.

Depends if I'm invested in any of the contestants. I have this year, online. But there have been years when I didn't.

Yes I always vote online, sometimes text a couple of times if one of my favorites looks like being in trouble.

I had several people I voted for (free votes online only) last year but so far this year I've not been bothered, the only person I might have voted for is Judy and that's down to the fact that she makes me smile (her reactions to the ridiculous judges comments, not her dancing).

As we get nearer the final I might start to vote but it's hard to imagine at the moment! They seem a bit of a dull bunch compared to last year

Yes, I vote for Mark three times online and three times on my landline, so if he does end up in the dance off, it's not my fault.

Yes...but for many years now my policy on 'televoting' generally is that I will vote only if it's free so I use use up my free allocation and leave it at that.

I used to vote like mad .. spent a small fortune on Kimberley. Only use my free online votes now.

Have never joined in TV votes for anything.
I don't care what the great unwashed think.

Your ridiculous and arrogant post makes no sense. Voting and caring about other people's opinions are different things. People aren't voting for you.


I voted this week for the first time, for Jake who I thought might be in danger. I gave him 3 on-line votes, and was going to give the final 2 to Sunetra, but was caught out by this year's max 3 rule. I'm sure it was 5 last year?

I only vote if I'm worried about someone I like going out. I like them all this year apart from Pixie, so I'll probably only vote in the final.

I use my free votes every week.

Same as me!..... I have only just started doing online voting this year!....... And it is saving me 'Loads a money'!...........

(I will never pick up my phone again!)...... .....

Online only. All Judy's way.
Was indeed 5 votes last year.

Will be switching over to Kevin and Frankie when the Judy is gone. She's got to Blackpool so now the right time for her to go. Would love to see Len's face if she gets even further in the comp.

My face will be if Judy gets past week 10!

Never mind Len's face, can you just imagine Craig's?!

I vote online. We used to vote by phone sometimes before the online voting came in.

We voted a LOT for. Kimberley in 2012!

I'm so observant, I didn't even realise there were free online votes! If I watch it live this weekend I'll get some votes in.

You do realise that if you watch the show - and if you don't, it seems a bit odd to be posting here but hey ho, each to their own - that you are just as much a part of the 'great unwashed' as any other viewer whether you vote or not?

Up until last year I only voted in the final, with a couple of rare exceptions when I thought the dancer I was supporting was in leaderboard danger (I remember doing this once or twice for Kimberley). Last year and this I always vote online if I've been able to watch the show live.

I used to vote only occasionally - in the final or if I felt very inspired by a particular dance - but now I cast my free votes every week (and usually my husband's too!).

I vote every week. I don't feel you can really moan at others not voting for certain people if you don't bother yourself.

I always use my free online votes but this year have not actually telephoned any votes but I might nearer the end.

I almost always work Saturday nights so don't get much chance and usually only make the effort to vote in the semi-final/final. I don't often go in for the underdogs or comedy contestants ao my favourites are generally safe up to that point anyway. Although I did really like Mark last year so voted for him a lot because he needed the support... Not that it made much difference.

If people have the opportunity to vote (ie. not watching on catch up) I agree.

I use my 3 online votes for my favourite celebrity. I sometimes vote on the land line if I've enjoyed the performance of another dancer.

I never voted until I could do it for free online. Don't see the point in giving money to the BBC when they get money from my TV licence.

What return do you hope for?

Used to just vote in the final. Now vote every week with my free votes
