I want it to be Anita. I think Georgia might do it though - and that would be fine, as she's great too.

If not him then Anita. I really think that she's the most popular contestant after Jay and her popularity is on the rise. Also the Gleb's factor . She's also the classic journey contestant.”

And the Tellymix poll has far more people voting on it then DS has.

Agree. If I had been watching the show in a vacuum without any outside influence I'd say Georgia, Jay and Anita were all in with a good chance (similar to last year). But going by crowd reaction, every social media poll there has been (which includes Jays tweets being retweeted thousands of times) and what I've heard in 'real life' I can't see anyone else winning it.

*shrugs* Don't care much about Jay or Georgia and don't like Anita (mind you, most people thought that Susanna Reid was likable, so logic is a strange word in Strictly) *shrugs*
Think they should give Jay the glitterball and be done with it.
Between Anita, Georgia and Katie for the second, third and fourth places. I think Jay will win though.

Not on here they didn't...
I think Georgia should win, based on improvement, likeability and consistency in performance level - but it's an unlikely scenario.

Well, perhaps you have a point
But there must have been a reason she was leading the public vote at one point (according to the leaks). Based on this year, it probably wasn't all due to Kevin.
I'll nail my colours to the mast and say Katie & Anton; their story has HUGE appeal from TPTB's perspective - first older winner, heartland BBC, Anton finally winning, her (well, Anton's) Ballroom routines being seen as a return to Classic Strictly, very attractive woman (in a different way to, say, Abbey, or Kara), journey contestant...
Plus, quite frankly imagine the column inches if that posh Proms woman beat St. Jay. Jay doesn't need a win, and isn't BBC, but Katie would benefit massively from it (I could see her suddenly being on our TVs a lot more often...).

Think: Georgia. Improved no end and nearly always top of the leadership and has a growing fanbase but to date hasn't had the 'favourite tag' thrust upon them and the hype or scruitiny that Jay necessarily has (whether a Jay fan or not I think it's fair to say that).
All of which leaves her in a similar position to Flack and Clancy in previous years where the moment's slowly building behind them and you could easily see them winning. Think there's too much of a marmite reaction around Jay for him to win probably. He causes near warfare on here. Contestants who split reaction like that seem to rarely win Strictly.
That said I'd want one of Katie, Jay or Anita to win. Anita needs to reach the final too simply to see what Gleb produces for a showdance - could be amazing or could be another Bacofoil.
Think Katie winning is unlikely but would be my preferred choice.

(Guys I just seriously, without joking said I thought Anton would win, 2012 me would have spat his drink out at the suggestion, is this a fever dream? Am I actually dead, and in Limbo?).
I think the Showdance could really determine the winner.
Tom Chambers and Chris Hollins had the most entertaining Showdances of the night and were far from the favourites or the best, but pipped the others to the Glitterball.
That being said, I hoping for a Gleb Special. Although, I think Jay and Georgia are most likely given recent form/popularity.

I honestly don't think he'll win but I really think that there's a huge, huge chance that he will make his first finale
. This finale .I kind of want to see this happen tbh...I would like to see what an Anton's showdance would look like

Anton making a final , would be like winning
The final two will be Jay and Georgia with Georgia winning.
Not sure who out of Kellie, Katie and Anita won't make the final, but my best guess is that it will be Kellie.
I hope Anton reaches the final.

To be fair there's a difference between "oooh look a shiny new pro and he's British and he's Northern and he choreographs in a really different way to the other pros and he's got a great pedigree and won lots of titles and he looks cute in glasses and he seems happy not like all those brooding Russians" Year 1 Kevin and "oh right this tit again" Year 3 Kevin.

Me too. A lovely, swooshy ballroom showdance.
Yes please!

Oh God! What a thought! Heavens!
Tellymix polls have been drastically wrong before. The problem with online polls is only serious fans, of the show, vote on them. That's only one demographic. What about all those people who tune in on a Saturday night with no favourite in mind and just vote for who they think danced best on the night. What about older fans who typically spend less of their time online (of which Strictly has a lot of) I can imagine they are far more likely to vote for Katie and Anton than Jay and Aliona.
