Mine were

Daisy / Aljaz
Louise / Kevin
Danny / Oti
Judge Rinder / Oksana

I think Daisy will win if her latin is as good as the ballroom.

Interesting Q.

For now (I'm fickle ...)

Robert & Oksana
Danny & Oti (can't believe this choice!)
Louise & Kevin
Claudia & AJ

Just outside: Daisy & Aljaz

This is a very difficult series to call. Daisy, Danny, Louise and Will are obviously front-runners right now, but with a bit of work Claudia and Laura could get up to their level, and there are a couple of others who could become a 'journey' candidate and surprise us all.

Daisy & Aljaz
Danny & Oti
Louise & Kevin
Claudia & AJ

Not necessarily in that order

1st: Louise & Kevin
2nd: Danny & Oti
3rd: Anastacia & Brendan
4th: Will & Karen

Think the male competition is too strong for an Abbey 2.0.

Besides, judging by the opening group dance a few weeks ago, she is mediocre at best in latin (mind you, some celebs played hide and seek there).

My 4 top couples (based on dance alone):

- Ore & Joanne
- Claudia & AJ
- Danny & Oti
- Will & Karen

(Kevin sitting this one out)

With the winner being:

- Danny & Oti

(Yes, he doesn't have a personality, but that goes for almost all male winners. ..shrug)

Daisy, Danny, Louise, Will, Anastacia, Greg, Ore, Claudia, Tameka, Laura, Judge Rinder and maybe even Naga all seem to be in with a chance.

That's 12 of the contestants

Danny & Oti
Daisy & Alijaz
Louise & Kevin
Judge Rinder & Oksana

I like most of them though. Hoping Jo sorts the choreo out as Ore has great potential.

Very, very early days but I can see Louise & Kevin winning. I think they're going to have a good partnership and she is very likeable and comes across as more natural than some of his previous partners, which in turn may help to calm him down a bit.

I'd be quite happy with them winning actually because surely then for 2017 Kevin would definitely have a duffer?

A very open series, having the best male cast in some years does help.

There could be some really tough dance offs from quite early on.

Daisy & Aljaz
Danny & Oti
Robert & Oksana
Naga & Pasha

Daisy & Aljaz to win

Translation: Not a loud-mouthed show-off, arrogant, or over-confident.

Will & Karen
Danny & Oti
Daisy & Aljaz
Greg & Natalie

with Will to win.

It's very hard to pick a top 4 as there are so many potentials. I felt for Danny tonight as I thought he was undermarked. I also thought Anastacia was overmarked by Craig, I think he was so starstruck he was never going to criticise her but I did like her dance.

Sure, whatever you want.

These are the 4 I enjoyed the most.

Nat and Greg
Aljaz and Daisy
Rob and Oksana
Kevin and Louise


Aljaz and Daisy to win


This probably will change a bit in time

I just detest all the showing off and playing up to camera. (Ore is the worst example of that, utterly cringeworthy). The people who have "personalities" are often so annoying.

It's so tedious when people start complaining that someone "doesn't have a personality". Being more reserved is not no personality, it's just a different kind of personality.

This week my four, in no particular order are
Danny
Will
Louise
Ore

Could all change next week.

OMG, how awful. Do you work for a company that produces Stepford Wife dolls?

1. Danny and Oti
2.Louise and Kevin
3.Will and Karen
4.Claudia and AJ

I have 6 favourites right now

Laura & Giovanni
Claudia AJ
Daisy & Aljaz
Greg & Natalie
Will & Karen
Danny & Oti

Would love to see any of them win. Think at least 4 of them will be in the final. It would be great if Claudia won as she'd be the youngest winner and AJ would be the youngest pro to win

Rob and Oksana
Claudia and AJ
Louise and Kevin
Danny and Oti

Tough question as they all were good in their own way.

However I'd say my top 4 atm are

Claudia and AJ
Danny and Oti
Daisy and Alijaz
Laura and Giovanni

With Louise and Kevin just outside.

Danny and Oti
Greg and Natalie
Louise and Kevin


Just those 3 for me....

Too early to tell who will win

I think you've misunderstood what I meant. I put the word personalities in quotation marks, because I was referring to the BIG personality types, i.e. show-offs.

As a quiet, reserved person myself (who has sometimes been told that I have no personality, by various assorted loudmouths), I will always empathise with the quieter types and defend anyone who has been accused of having no personality, which in this case was Danny.

Danny & Oti
Daisy & Aljaz
Louise & Kevin
Will & Karen

Ore & Joanne could be up there too if Jo actually choreographs a full dance so he can really show what he can do. Greg, Anastacia and Claudia have potential but will need to deal with bad habits, nerves and poor choreography respectively if they are to have a chance!

The rest I don't rate at all.


It's pointless to predict a winner before everyone has danced both ballroom and Latin, but based on first dances alone, I wouldn't be unhappy if either Danny or Daisy won.

I don't agree with your definition of personality in question marks.

Danny is a poor example. He has presence as someone with ego lacking intellect. I suspect that the most reserved people are those with the biggest fronts such as Tameka and Robert. Your definitions are literal at the least.
