...I sincerely hope this isn't indicative of anything final dances-wise...

For your sake I hope it's a tea/cha breakfast show pun

Ah, Michael Johnson, a dream contestant for me, even if by the brief glance at his dancing during the World Champs, ummm, he won't be good - but all he'd have to do is come out and speak and I'd vote my hand off for him *sigh*
You and me both, absolutely love the man, a true sports hero in my eyes.

Someone worked it out, she had, over the months of Strictly, the equivalent of about 5 years worth of weekly dance lessons, now Strictly is a different beast obviously, and at a far faster pace etc, and she had outside commitments and much greater pressure, but the 'never danced before' does wear a wee bit thin.

Nevermind, she'll be back doing what I like her doing, and hopefully successfully as she's a damn good reporter/presenter and generally I like her.
Not a dig at you at all but I don't know you - and many others - can be so forgiving. Anita has annoyed me to the point that, like Peter Andre, I never want to see her again after Saturday's show.

Unfortunately I am going to see her on the tour next year, but I suppose for Jay, Helen et al it'll be worth it. I might invest in some earplugs for when she starts wittering on about her lack of training.

Unappreciating Anita on Twitter retweeting people making out she was robbed and tweeting herself about how the people had her back.

Had to resist pointing out that not enough of them had her back to keep her out of the dance off. Best case she finished 3rd in the public vote...

Seriously - I like her as a presenter but this whole "never danced before" thing has her taking herself far too seriously as the patron saint of the untrained dancer and it's really irritating
I just had a look... she really does believe her own hype now doesn't she? I couldn't believe the one where she said she appreciated peoples' 'sadness and outrage'... no congrats to Katie & Anton, or any of the other finalists for that matter. There is such a thing as being a bad loser!

I'm starting to feel the same. After the penultimate ITT she sort of lost me.

And I've become more fixed since the reports of her 'retweeting' how wrong it was that she lost. She's INVOLVED in her hype far too much for me to just think 'oh well, away from the dancefloor she's ok'.

Still not at Andre levels of loathing though, or anything like, and I gave him a fair chance an' all (if only because I knew little about him except that I loathed Price and saw him as a bit of a victim, maybe).

Ah, as I don't do twitter generally I hadn't seen that, but now I have had a look and I really wish I hadn't, bloody hell woman, stop it, I previously really liked you - and being 'People's Champion' actually puts you on par with John Sargeant (sp) and Widdy, who were both declared it (and not just by TerryM22)

Bloody hell, hadn't seen that.

I was RIGHT.

Well, no surprise there.

Usually makes you more emotional not less, I would have said. I cheated and adopted

Maybe she was exhausted and had really bad morning sickness?

Frankie had a horrible time with extreme sickness: http://www.ok.co.uk/celebrity-news/f...rning-sickness

Someone needs to reply to her tweets and point this out ... even on ITT yesterday she was trying to push that line and the answer is so simple and obvious, it's a bit stupid really!

I honestly think she's forgotten her integrity or something. Carried away with it all.

Or that she's thinking 'milk it, milk it'.

I'd be amazed if I hadn't watched her reveal this attitude before.

She's either 'carried away', or she's the gimlet eyed chancer I spotted a bit ago.

Disappointing.

i think that would be a error of judgement. she's out. no need to have a go at her on a public platform after the event. it might look a bit... well, something not good.

Katie's still doing that nose wrinkling gazing adoringly at Anton thing. She's just been looking like a short sighted Shar Pei on ITT

Snigger at Anton doing the Old Spice advert, it's going to be camper than Julian Clary and Paul O'Grady as the Ugly Sisters. Katie might as well sit this one out. it's all about the Beak

Well, any hope for a good show dance from Jay gone. Unappreciating that.

Not that the others have much more appeal.
OFortuna would be good for someone like Anita. It would have epic (not sure if for the right reasons). For Katie and Anton, when you could have done a beautiful ballroom?

Georgia, fix you, should be good.

Kellie, what did she get?

If he doesn't have a paso cape I want my money back. Well, I haven't paid & I wouldn't for Anton's dancing but if he doesn't chuck every ballroom trope at this dance I'm setting Ann Widdicombe on him.

It would be hilarious if they salsaed to it though 😂😂😂

Katie & Anton's Showdance will be epic (in one direction or the other ), but my enjoyment of it will be slightly marred by the memory of this.

I quite like Jays too... Someone posted a link to the modern samba Aliona did with Matt Cutler and something like that could work for the track
