I'm so fed up of hearing how people have been given: the wrong dance, the wrong music, the wrong partner, the wrong position, the wrong dress, the wrong prop, the wrong score... flipping heck why do people get so worked up when they feel that their favourite has been hard done by... trust me they wouldn't be worrying about you so much

Did I ever say Frankie was my favourite?
No I did not.
Would I necessarily vote for Frankie to win?
No.
Am I really worried about it?
No. The fate of the universe does not depend on the result.
I was merely stating a desire to see her attempt an AT.
That was all. In order to achieve that she needed to progress beyond tonight but the Salsa was not the dance to give her the best dance to help her achieve that goal imo.

He shouldn't tonight if he's against Pixie or Frankie, their dances were much worse than his. Simon if he's there will presumably dance his better if Kristina doesn't get her heel caught again (though I wasn't sold on the choreography regardless).

But then we all know the dance-off isn't just about the dance on the night, so yes, I expect if Mark's in the dance-off it's a foregone conclusion.

Sadly have to agree with you. Salsa didn't suit Frankie and she got it at a very unfortunate time. She's a lovely dancer, but her range is somewhat limited. For one thing, she neither likes nor is good at lifts. If she's in the DO I don't see that Salsa improving enough to outshine any of the other dances. Fingers crossed she avoids the DO, and if she's there, I hope she shows massive improvement and makes me eat my words.

Mark -vs Frankie is more likely.
