Is it wrong to hope to see Ore facing Louise in the Dance-Off at some point.....?
Particularly if the judges then put Ore through? Just wondering? |

Even better would be Cloudier & AJ taking Twimsy out via a dance off.

Sorry, but more than being impressed by Danny's great dancing, I am seriously irritated by him. He is clearly a trained dancer and if he wasn't a professional actor he would be a professional dancer. He should not have been selected for SCD. I watch him with extreme reluctance.

As with every other year, so what? He's not claiming to have only sat on a chair. His pro has turned out a marvellous run of choreography, which he has mostly carried out with aplomb. He's not a trained dancer who can only do one half of the dances on the curriculum. I'm here for the dancing, not the duffers, so *blows raspberry*

I do think we will lose one of them before the final. I wouldn't be surprised if either Cloudier or Greg made it to the final without troubling the bottom 2.
I do think the tighter endgame (5 couples in the quarters instead or 6, 4 couples in the semis instead of 5) is going to make it easier for the table-topping ringahs. Less elbowroom always favours those at the top of the table and hurts those at the bottom, especially with the dance-off in play. |

Yes, that's true.
I can see a semi-final like the series 5 ... quarter final, was it? ... when Matt went for his nice little sit down and was power voted out the bottom 2. I don't think they'd be sorry to see Ed leave at Halloween. They're running out of things to do with him - and Rob Rinder as well. Is scary moth one of the most pants Halloween themes ever? |

As compared to “disfigured shopkeeper” or Greg and Natalie’s spooky “man and woman” theme?

I think it's the other way around - people vote for big costumes and make-up jobs and stunts, and if you're just going out in a "spooky" variation of normal ballroom attire you're in trouble. If you look at the people in the Bottom 2 at Hallowe'en, I'd say only Rachel and Scott had a big make-up & costume job (and Scott looked effing stupid every single week, Hallowe'en or not, and it never hurt him before). Nancy I think was actually wearing less make-up than usual

I think a lot hinges on how Laura/Anastacia/Daisy vs Rinder/Greg/Ed goes. The likable but unloveable decent ladies vs the utterly hopeless but endearing underdog men is going to be the elimination story for the next month barring something very odd happening. It depends how much help the show wants to give the former in maybe outlasting some of the latter (like the week last year when popular Jay, Katie and Anita were all suddenly low on the leaderboard at the same time, leading to Jeremy finally getting the elbow), or if they're happy to allow them to get bumped off one by one. If the latter set triumph there might not be enough series left to clear them all out in time to stop one of them or Cloudia squeaking into the very end. (It occurs to me that Danny having a mediocre foxtrot might be a good opportunity to try to elbow out one of the above three guys by lowballing him and setting off a round of panic voting, and I eagerly await the squealing on here if they try it)
I do think the tighter endgame (5 couples in the quarters instead or 6, 4 couples in the semis instead of 5) is going to make it easier for the table-topping ringahs. Less elbowroom always favours those at the top of the table and hurts those at the bottom, especially with the dance-off in play. |

How to get your husband to take you out for Sunday dinner the day after his birthday, rather than miss Strictly.
Bring home steak and all the trimmings plus a chocolate pud, to prepare & eat at home. 🎃 |

Last year I must have been a crazed young boyband fan because I voted Jay.
This year I must be a hormonal over 50 because I gave Ed some votes. I'm confused about my identity. ![]() ![]() although I should point out, I didn't/don't fancy either Jay or Ed, just enjoy watching them dance for quite radically different reasons but both of them exude emotion.Quote:
The fact that BoD lasted to week 10 was a salutary lesson that some people will literally vote for anyone.

Danny is definitely growing on me. He has a good sense of humour re his role as Oti's triumphant vessel to the Glitter ball, and I like their grown up, respectful professional relationship - a brisk pat on the knee on the ITT sofa, a lot of humour, and very little cloying cuddling or faux "best mates" bolleaux. I didn't expect to like him, as had him down as a dull, pretty boy, and probably wouldn't want to go on the lash wth him (or him with me) but I would prefer him to win over Twimsy or Jore. (Cloudier would be even better).

I agree and at least he admits to working hard and wanting to be the best he can be. I'm seriously unappreciating so many celebs on ITT going on and on and on about how much fun they're having. From now on the fun word should go into the same bin as the journey one
![]() And seeing as I'm getting things off my chest, I totally unappreciate Louise doing a bingo ad - it's just gambling aimed at women

I too expected not to like Danny.
I expected him to be like Mark Wright. Faking his ever so 'umbleness etc. But I haven't found him to be like that at all. I have enjoyed every dance he's done immensely. I still unnappreciate the Cliftons being forced down our throats - you WILL like them, you WILL vote for them to win. Well I DON'T like them and I bloody well SHAN'T vote for them. |

How I wish all of that would happen. Longing for a shock boot of epic proportion, to break apart what seems like the inevitable final trio of Danny,Ore and Louise. I fear only they can take each other out at this stage.

Moths scare the crap out of me. A Rinder sized moth with his dancing facial expressions is enough to scare me into not watching! 😬😢👻 I like Judge though and I'm hoping his narrative will go like Kellies last year where at some point he'll just be allowed to do a beautiful Ballroom in tails with appropriate music. Well I can hope! |
