Before the first show:
Quote:
“As the new series of Strictly Come Dancing starts tonight, YouGov is kicking off a new tracker that we will be running through the entire series to measure the public's response to the rhumbas, judgement on the jives and feelings about the foxtrots.
The initial research shows that overall, three in ten people say they intend to watch at least some of this series and singer Will Young is the contestant most people want to win (with 18% of the public with an opinion backing him). The next most popular are TV judge Robert Rinder and former Eternal singer Louise Redknapp (both on 13%).
✂️
Despite being pipped to the post by Will Young and Judge Rinder when it comes who people most want to win, Louise Redknapp is the contestant the most people think is most likely to win, with 23% believing she will take home the glitter ball. Young is hot on her heels though (on 20%), but Judge Rinder’s popularity doesn't translate into an expectation to win as just 5% of people say they think he will win.”

“Model Daisy Lowe and her partner Aljaz Skorjanec may have topped the leaderboard but it was Danny Mac who most impressed Strictly fans, according to research conducted by YouGov exclusively for RadioTimes.com.
The Hollyoaks actor is the celebrity dancer viewers reckon performed the best last weekend with 21% of the vote, closely followed by Judge Rinder on 20%, Louise Redknapp (17%) and judges' favourite Lowe on 9%.
Ed Balls, Melvin Odoom, Lesley Joseph and Tameka Empson are the celebs deemed by viewers to have performed the worst over the opening weekend, each earning just 1% of the vote.
However, while Mac impressed in the first live show, former Eternal singer Redknapp is tipped by fans as the most likely to win the series. 18% of those surveyed reckon she will take the Glitterball come December, with 17% predicting victory for Mac and 15% singling out Will Young for the Strictly title.
As for the contestant they'd most like to win the series, fans are rooting for Judge Rinder who after week one captured 22% of the vote – streets ahead of Redknapp and Young who, in joint second place, secured 12%.”
