Helen Kellie and Mark have got some of my personal fave songs ever so really looking forward to this show if the songs are anything to go by. maybe best show of the series yet. when today is the show? I predict Robert& Helen disasters landing them equal bottom of the leaderboard and Kellie top again (think she has already being top) My prediction for elimination is Robert& Jeanette with Helen& Anton being saved in the DO
