This year I must be a hormonal over 50 because I gave Ed some votes. I'm confused about my identity. ![]()

I'm not a fan of the deliberate attempts by the producers to try and trick the fickle audience into believing that Ore is the best thing since slice bread. They danced their overmarked Jive on the Saturday and two days later a new program fronted by Ore started airing on BBC 1 daytime.
I understand it's not a new thing for the BBC names to receive slightly favourable treatment to the others but I wish they'd be less obvious about it. This time last year they were pushing Kellie as the saviour of dance, Kellie who just happened to be a leading lady in a BBC soap. |

You were obviously ovary-voting for Anton, see?

No, no - you know that was all Anton and his chest wig. Stop trying to deny it.

Kevin and Kellie would have relished it last year. I wasn't keen on her but Kellie, to give her her due, could have taken on anything and still emerged (relatively) triumphant. She made Scott Maslen look like a right wuss.*

To be honest, I'm not sure that was the prime mover with Ore. I think they'd had a couple of weeks to suss out how people were going, realised that even without all injuries and resignations it had gone from a 'ooh, exciting, close on paper' line up to 'meh' and were scrabbling round for a contest - because if the 'knew who the winner was from week 3' trope was hard to get by it was infinitely preferable to 'not bothered'. It was a series in need of a storyline ... any storyline. |

Strictly has always been a vehicle for the BBC to "showcase" particular employees contracted to them, particularly those who are in a running series and or those who they intend to front a new programme, or whatever in the future.
They can orchestrate favourable perceptions by a gullible viewing public, with selected dances, music, training clips, judges comments and interviews on ITT. They aren't that bothered if "one of theirs" doesn't win. They just want them to stay in as long as possible to get the maximum PR benefit. |

Oy!! I'm a hormonal over 50 and I'm not voting for him! I reckon it's all the lovelorn 20 & 30 somethings, who think he's a father figure with a kind twinkle in his eye. Quote:

Poor Danni, so deserving of the top slot and forever the bridesmaid never the bride. |

I think you are overestimating the power of Strictly. One is either crap or not at their (BBC) job. It does not change much if one is perceived as an excellent dancer. Not long term anyway. Come January and any achievement will start fading away.
