That's a bit harsh ! At least she is like many of the viewing public and I presume this is why this couple are still in there as so many identify with her. I admire her for having the guts to stride out for what she wants regardless of her size, she is a good dancer and deserves her place in the semi final. Not sure who could go out this week though, either James and Claire or Nathan and Kristy I think. I want Danny and jodie to win only because they are the best all round, Joseph and Sadie are good but have not been tested on different styles of dance as much as the others, always getting high rhythm crow-pleasers to dance to.

we have all got our favourite's dancers..........
and the ones we love.............
it is every'ones opinion..........
who we want to win................. i want nathan...........

sadie and jospeh will win now i think.........

it's not up to the panel......
it is us at home..............
the viewers....................

I can't stand James and Claire - James' eyes freak me out. Hopefully Joseph and Sadie will win as they're the best dancers - closelyfollowed by Danny and Jodie.

No way are Joseph and Sadie the best dancers, they are nothing more than crowd pleasers.

Danny and Jodie are streets ahead.

Exciting show again - Joseph and Sadie nearly blew it with the waltz but pulled it together with the Hustle. Danny and Jodie are fantastic and consistently great - I think these two will be the winners. But who will go home tonight? I think it will be between James and Claire and Kristy and Nathan - but I can't make up my mind which ones.

I'd like to see James and Claire or Joseph and Sadie go tonight, Kirsty and Nathan are just coming into there own and may yet surprise.

Danny and Jodie should and deserve to win, but you can never tell with the GBP, it's their vote that decides it.

I really want Joseph and Sadie to win! Their Hustle was amazing - that back-flip off Joseph's back was sensational! I have a bad feeling for them tonight! I just hope that the British Public vote them through to the Finale next week!

I think they're way better than "crowd pleasers", but there's something about Sadie's utter desperation to win that puts me off.

Jodie and Danny are streets ahead of the other two though, so, hopefully, they'll win.

This has been a cracking series. I've loved it.

Love to see what you look like mate

Oh and try learning to spell.

Amazed by tonight!

Claire and James..even though I wanted them to be in the final, were not realy full of 'ooommmpph' tonight!

The other 3 couples all pulled off dances that made the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end.

So I am very suprised that Nathan and Christy went out as are all my family who were also James and Claire fans before 6Pm tonight.

You really do have to go on the dances this time rather than who you like.

I think that Danny and Jodie are technically fantastic...brilliant in fact.

But Sadie and Joseph can be spontaneous and exciting (and yes I know there waltz was dire..but a 3 Arlene?) They amaze me sometimes with their dancing.

Here's hoping the best dancer overall wins next week.

But they all deserve to be there.

I thought the dancing in last night's show summed up each couple perfectly. I knew that Joseph and Sadie weren't going to master the waltz, they have up to now never been tested by such a hard style and it was about time we got to see their weaknesses. What is so unfair really is that this had to come in the semi-final, they should have had to do a difficult style much sooner in the competition like most other couples did (especially those that got knocked out), we would then have noticed that they aren't that "brilliant" after all. They do, however, deserve to be in the final. I must add, that the votes they got for the hustle seemed very contrived in order for them to get higher marks to ensure their final place, no way did they deserve 3 x 10 points ! The judges were desperate to see them next week and only Arlene gave them fair points (although 3 for the waltz was a little harsh). Danny and Jodie, what can I say, perfection and they deserve to win. Claire and James are lovely, give it lots of effort and bags of personality and I'm glad to see them in the final too, although i think we all (including them) know that they won't (indeed shouldn't) win. Nathan and Kristy perhaps didn't deserve to go but neither did Claire and James so whichever couple left it was a difficult choice. I think she is a great dancer, he is nothing special so perhaps the partnership was unfair in that sense and they were destined to leave. Looking forward to the final, the rightful winners must surely be Danny and Jodie - such great all round skill, technical ability, grace and professionalism - good luck to them.

How rude.......


Go home and read a dictionary!!!!

Great post miaviv.

You obviously know a great deal about dancing. I dont. I'm just entertained and in awe of the skill and hard work that goes in to each performance.

Definitely Jodie and Danny to win, but grrrrr at paulsanderson's fatism remarks. Good grief, Claire has won me over with her personality, skill and guts.

Are you an adonis who could also show Luca and Jason how dance should be? Nah! thought not. Claire is herself. Only you have a problem that she's not Twiggy!

i do not look her' ms, thunder thighs, i can assure you.

and as for the school, lesson. i am having homework.........

and you should respect other people personal opinions.

and get a life..............

I have not followed this show from the start, but I think Danny & Jodie are obviously the best.

That said I would not vote for them, they are not at all likable, I understand that it's not a popularity contest, but she seems so cold and full of it.

I like Clare, she has such personality and is a joy to watch, the girl just loves to dance, and that comes across so much.

Sadie and Joseph, I really like. I think the judges piling on those 10 pointers last weekend may backfire. They were NOT that good. They are lovely, but it's not fair to make a sham of the whole contest by the judges giving out top marks to their favourites, that stinks of teachers pet.
I thought the judges should at least feign impartiality. How unprofessional.

Should be a good final, best of luck to them all!!

Yup. Completely agree with all your points ( apart from the fact I've been hooked since Programme 3 -the last of the auditions.)

The trouble with this type of RTV is that you get to know everyones personality as well as their dance skills. It's the nature of the beast, and, while the judges and contestants may hold up their hands in horror, the longevity of James and Claire has shown that viewers love people for their personality, as seen on screen.

I know owt about dancing, I just love watching it. And yes, I love the Reality aspect. I so wish they'd show Live Streaming. I'd love to see the progression from start to finish of the dance sequences. The weak points, the squabbles...all of it.

Shallow? Moi?

But, of all the couples, I only like Claire out of the girls. Sadie is so desperate, Jodie, cold and bossy.

They are so obviously talented that they should get a foothold in the professional scene. Then it's up to them as to whether they have the guts to make it in a tough profession. Both couples are well able, skill wise.

James and Clare are different. They wont, maybe, get a chance because they dont fit the mould of professional dancers. But, having gone the RTV route, I would love to see them win. I adore Clare's personality. There's something totally endearing about her. She isn't hard, which is my perception of Jodie and Sadie. ( Gawd, if, as they should, Danny and Jodie win, then heaven help the poor lad. Or maybe, without Jodie's utter perfectionism, he responds to that and is quite happy?)

So, looking forward to Saturday. Skillwise, It would be a travesty if it was not

1st...Danny and Jodie
2nd..Joseph and Sadie
3rd...James and Clare

based on the series.

But, I'd be very happy to see my first or, even better, my 3rd choice as the victors.

Whatever, this has been a great series.I hope the beeb recommission it (and show live streaming..the icing on the cake fora dedicated RTV fan like myself.)

Wholly agree. Come on James and Claire! She looks so happy when she dances, and despite not being a long limbed typical dancer she can certainly move!

The Scottish public are notorious for getting right behind people (amongst other things!) so hopefully that will be a big help!

Very much looking forward to Saturday's final, the only program I'm excited about this w/end.

Rooting for Danny & Jodie ( but mainly Danny). He's such a wonderful dancer to watch & I'll go further to say that I'll pay to see him perform on stage anytime!

I vowed I'd never vote on a RTV show ever again, but watching the BB3 prog tonight, I just had to put one in for James and Clare.

Roll on the final. Although I'll miss my Saturday night dance fix.

cant wait for tomorrow. come on sadie and joseph!

Same here but it's Danny and Jodie for me, they are amazing and so deserve to go on and make it in the professional world of dance.

James and Claire have limited appeal as do Joseph and Sadie.

Wish them all well and thank them for an entertaining programme.

Come on Sadie and Joseph (though if Danny and Jodie win it's okay)

A little worried by their choices of dance tomorrow after seeing Richard and Judy..i didn't think the Lindhop was Sadie and Josephs best..but we'll see.

Roll on tomorrow!

I really want Joseph and Sadie to win!

well i dont !!!!!!

but the judges want them to
