Outrage is a strong word, viewers maybe a tad disappointed if their fave doesn't win. Anyone who is genuinely outraged need to have a lie down in a darkened room 😉

I must say I'm amazed how many people seem able to say who does and doesn't deserve to win before any of them have danced "on the night".
Totally agree

I agree - I won't be 'outraged' if my least favourite Mark wins - disappointed yes, depressed and despairing of humanity maybe but I think I'll be able to cope

Looking on the bright side, Mark winning would be a good excuse to drown your sorrows..if you needed one. I'm not particulary looking foward to the final, so the Christmas booze is going to be opened early this year.

As much as I would love Simon to win, I won't be overly disappointed if he doesn't. There's no life-changing prize, at the end of the competition, so it's just a bit of fun. Plus, all of the finalists just seem happy to be there.

Whoever wins, wins. It will be forgotten about, in a short time by the public.

Apparently according to another thread some people are going to be playing a drinking game for all the reality tv cliches he's going to come out with tonight. God help us if he wins! I think some people might have to end up joining AA!

Yes, but I think if Mark won, it wouldn't be just a bluff. Even my wife, who has been a crazy Strictly fan since the first series, would call it a day if Mark won.

But it might be worth seeing it happen, just to watch the reaction
.
Errrrrrrrrr ......

I'd be most surprised if Mark won. Very, very surprised. Because there are an awful lot of "anyone but Mark" people and I don't think any of the other three have as big an "anti vote" - and the final is when the anti vote can really affect things. I think we can assume he's had a relatively low vote so far, so I think it would take a bit of a miracle for him to win.

I wouldn't be outraged exactly if he won, but I'd certainly just switch off the TV as soon as it was announced rather than bother watching him celebrate.

I'd be pretty surprised if Simon won too - but I don't think he has as big an anti vote Mark.

You mean thanking her for confirming that he only ever had drama classes and never had a dance lesson. Or do you think she's immoral and lied?

It will only finish off those who are so biased as to still think he spent 10 years learning to dance rather than believe the integrity of the school's principal.


Whoever wins will be the right winner because that's who the public have voted to win.
I don't know what he did at Sylvia Young stage school but I do know I think it's extremely strange he said he spent 10 years there in various interviews and he would have only did acting classes there - even then if he only did acting and not dance classes I would say he had some performance training - so that laboured 'underdog' rhetoric from him rings very hollow!

And as I said to you before the only place I can find that Sylvia Young quote is in a highly dubious Daily Heil article so that to me is not confirmation. As I said before I won't be 'outraged' if he wins - just disappointed.

All the contestants have done well so whoever wins deserves it. The down side to Frankie winning (for me) would be that dreary little emetic, Clifton would see it as his win. I try to see the good in everyone but the best thing I can say about him is he is more effective than a cup of salt water at shifting an internal blockage. He is the most self obsessed out of all the pros and needs to get that grotesque prominent lower occlusion seen to. Any vet could fix it. Handy as it may be for him to catch his snotters in his lower lip it doesn't make for easy viewing. I feel heartfelt sorry for Frankie being lumbered with stuck with that on the dance floor. Few things are uglier than a self obsessed, egotistical runt of a dancer. God knows, I've had a lifetime of them! If Frankie wins she should kick him out of the way and say "I did it -I won". Dancers like Pasha are proper role models for the pros. When Clifton did that paso with Susanna Reid last series he showed what a total prick he is. He only wanted to show what he could do. I only care what the pros can do for the contestants. I should be able to safely assume that the pros can dance.

I get the impression that there isn't much love for Kevin on DS ?

Simon winning would be a nice surprise for me - although as you say it's very unlikely to happen - however if he impresses me I'll still vote for him tonight - I hope he at least makes it to the final 3.

If Mark somehow manages to win I'll still probably wait and watch his victory speech - because I'm a masochist I want to see how many cliches he spouts and I doubt if he can say anything as stupid as last years winner when she boasted she was going to get drunk.....or can he? I think they might need some life rafts for all the tears he'll be crying.

I take it you don't like Kevin then? Honestly he's not my favourite pro but I genuinely don't understand all the strong feelings of disdain he evokes. To me he seems like quite an inoffensive guy - a pleasant enough personality - yeah he might over dance sometimes, and he does go OTT when he's called safe, and he could focus more on celeb in some of his choreo but with Susanne last year he had someone who wasn't the greatest dancer so perhaps he felt he needed to do some distraction choreo - most of the pros sometimes resort to it, he got all the way to the finals with her and that was with her being a limited dancer and a marmite personality, so he must have done something right with her.

With Frankie it seems like he's built up another strong partnership - they seem to have a brother/sister type relationship and I think if she wins she'll be a worthy winner as it's been an entertaining partnership. And as someone said earlier, look on the bright side, if she wins it'll be very unlikely that Kevin gets a real contender for a while

In my household I think we'd turn off if Frankie won. All our opinions of course but we find her pretty bland, consistently overmarked and with an inflated opinion of her dance ability (though we blame that on the judges).

I am all for giving total knowledge and ability to people and NEVER making them look second best. He is the one and only dancer who never tones things down to be careful not to outshine his partner. It's vomit inducing, fat arsed little runts like that who turn men like me straight. Other than that I'm sure he is very nice.

I don't dislike Frankie but she's hasn't been anything special in this competition. None of her performance have wowed me. If am honest, I don't want her to win but prepared that her or Caroline will.

Well, if it's Kevin's aim to outshine his partner I'd have to say he's not very successful. Unless you like 'manic' in your pro dancer. But they're still a couple I like very much.

I'm not a huge fan of Mr Clifton but I've never particularly noticed his callipygian tendencies. I'll have to look now.

(Actually, I might not...)

if he wouldn't wear such tight ankled trousers it wouldn't make his disasterous area stick out so much.
Now, I don't want to sound as though I am bitching. Every dancer has their own way and their own personality. I wouldn't like to sound as though I'm picking him out as the worst pro in SCD. But where men are concerned, give me a real one, like Aljaz or Pasha any day. Zoe has even mentioned on ITT about the benefits of pros toning down their act for the benefit of the contestants. Aljaz never tried to make Alison look bad by him being the queen of the ball. And he did well with Abbey.
