I think the whole new viewer watching for the first time and voting is a bit of a myth. Think battle lines are pretty much drawn, but guess it's about who has the fanatical voters. 10 people using their 3 free votes on Kellie isn't going to have much effect on a Jay or Georgia fan voting 124 times.
I completely agree with that. I mean I am sure that there are many new voters or new multi voters on the final.

It's more about having another great dance to watch and watch again.
Anyway, just unappreciating that.

I am looking forward to Georgias though and Katie's for other reasons.

I'm remarkably zen.
We get to see it, which is fab and if he doesn't win ... well ... Years of wuzzrobbed beckon
Im getting a wee bit nervous, but I'm mostly zen.

I've ordered new super-sized pashminas all round just in case
I go from being total calm to hyper anxious.

I want just once for my fave to win. Not too much to ask is it?

I have watched since the first show and only once has my favourite won, I don't have a good track record so I am remarkably detached .

Not if we all vote I guess.

Trouble is, this has been Jay's to lose for weeks, so every Jay fan is panicking and every non-Jay fan is looking for weak areas to exploit.

But as this is a non-appreciation thread, Kevin & Kellie's dances really don't look good bunched together like that. Plus I can't believe the brass neck of Kevin going for the sympathy vote. Are we supposed to feel sorry for Kellie and her ugly, godawful dresses when it was his stylistic decision to do it? 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

I sat wondering how he would have felt if she had gone out in a dance off?
She sat there saying she would have felt cheated not to do a traditional ballroom in a pretty dress. Wonder if he had a twinge - because she so easily could have done.

Don't think he'd care a great deal, apart from how it affects him. All of his choreography this year seems to have been themed around what he wanted to do and not what Kellie would have liked.

He's trying to win this for himself, not her, imo

Unappreciating that still people are discussing Katie/Anita dance off.

Seriously people.
The real tragedy was the Helen/Georgia one.

True.
There's not much difference between him and Anton - both operating on a 'partner optional' basis.

Just watching Monday's ITT on catch-up - unappreciating Hayley Tamaddon. I hope that Strictly keeps to its tradition of not having previous Dancing On ice competitors on the show as she makes me want to throw things.

It has but .................I have been really entertained by every single dance of his. I'm not a young tweenie fan - he does nothing for me in the fanciable stakes (aliajz does that for me ) - but - I think Jay is a beautiful dancer. I look forward to his dances over and above all of them.

Just gone searching for that article. Apparently the arena holds 20,000, but he's closed 2/3 of it off for his gig.

And has sold 2,700 tickets apparently....

Why on earth book such a large venue in the first place? Surely it would be better to play smaller theatres and have them full?
That is hilarious.

Andre and his people really have no clue do they? I mean he could have performed at a nice theatre, filled it and made a nice profit... but no, it had to be a venue that people like Madonna, Muse, Snow Patrol and One Direction play. You know, acts that some people actually like!

Oh, absolutely, as I said, he could sit on the stairs and cry and I'd vote for him but everyone, including all of them, know he's a ridiculously overwhelming favourite. That's got to be very freeing for the rest of them, they have no expectations and immensely stressful for him, especially as he's usually a bag of nerves anyway.

I think Aliona's job this week is to keep him as calm as possible as much as it is to teach him the choreography.

And before Coppertop goes off on one again, Katie really isn't improving imo. She looks as wobbly and unsure as always. I'm not so sure going sooooo dramatic is such a good idea. She's better at light & frothy imo

Where was it said that TTF chose her ugly dresses?

Unappreciating Lisa saying she can't dance any more. Er, any more?

Off topic.

Can I bring Oscar Isaac to bring some drink and tranquillisers? and a foot massage or two.

I didn't fancy in the very least until two days ago when I found out he was from Nicaragua (not sure why that change my mind) and saw the photos of him with Lupita and suddenly: hotness alert.

IT was his concept and theme, he said so tonight and on previous interviews. He kept repeating how Kellie wanted to dance in a gorgeous ballroom dress, so I'm guessing it wasn't her choice, but that Kevin came up with the concepts with producers and wardrobe

That she's shit and I've seen oil tankers turn quicker than she danced that barely even a slow step.

You definitely have a type of Strictly contestant if Katie and Lisa are anything to go by.

There's even a smaller venue inside the O2 they could have used, but no, it had to be the arena *Aliona eye roll*

Mine was even more cruel. But won't.
In all honesty, I feel sorry for Peter.
