This series i just don't have a favourite couple who I absolutely root for every single week.

i seem to like all of the couples left in different ways but it's a strange one!

Anybody else feeling the same way? I don't think I would mind any of them winning really from this point onwards, probably barring Ed just because although he can dance he's nowhere near as good as any of the others

I'm a Greg fan. There I've admitted it.

I haven't got a favourite either. There's some I look forward to watching more than others - Danny when he's doing Latin for example, but after the start of the series when so many looked as if they were going to have real potential and produce an excellent series, I find most have plateaued to a pretty even level, and not going any further.

Agreed. I'm struggling to find one couple to particularly look forward to watching this series. I quite like Danny and Oti (mainly because of how stunning Oti is) and Rinder and Oksana (but fear they are being sabotaged by unnecessary props and themes) - however, not really loving anybody especially this year.

I have a favourite (Danny) but I have a lot more couple's that I like and I'm voting for more than I ever have.

Loving Danny Mac and Judge Rinder this year

I don't have a all-round favourite this series, in the sense of liking all of someone overwhelmingly in personality and dance ability. The only celeb that I ever really LOVED was Kara Tointon. I liked her dancing and her (in pretty much equal measure) and she was the whole package for me. With Kara I hit the pinnacle of my dancing viewing and Strictly pleasure.

In series after her I've perhaps like the person, but not in equal measure to their dancing, or vice versa. Sometimes I've really liked the person, but really not taken to their dancing at all.

This series I like Danny Mac for his dancing, but I don't love him as a personality. That is not to say i don't like him, I do to some degree, but he's only my favourite this series in terms of dancing (as opposed to being my all round favourite). I only engage with Danny through his dancing, not him when he's just talking and not dancing.

Definitely agree. At the start this year I thought the standard was insanely high, whereas now I'm really hoping we see some WOW routines to rescue this series in the next few weeks.

Ed's my favourite, but I know he won't win.

As an athletics freak, I adore Greg - but he won't win, either.

I like Ore a lot - a non dancer who's got some really good routines under his belt and I think can only get better.

I don't usually root for ringers, but Danny has such style that I simply can't help but admire him - and the admiration keeps on growing. He's the first ringer that I've ever felt actually deserves to win.

Claudia, however, is an absolute little gem. When Ed & Greg bite the dust, as they will inevitably do, she'll get my votes. And if she meets her demise, I'll be supporting Danny.

[i]f nothing else, it's a very complicated year........

THIS! Totally agree, they are all good but I haven't had a wow yet

I change my mind every week, no one strikes me as being outstanding. I'm still waiting for that moment that sets one of them apart.

I don't have one clear favourite- just two or three, with a further two outliers.

It's actually improved my enjoyment on previous years in a very sort of Jack Spratt kind of way- with each couple filling the gaps missing in another couple. If Danny romps home with the glitterball- fair enough- the best dancer won, if not- interesting drama. Quids in either way.

I'm pretty sanguine about it- happy to feel that one favourite will emerge for me by the final stages, but if not, plenty of stuff to keep me entertained and interested in the meantime.

I never have a favourite. I seldom vote although I did tonight because I would like to see Greg stay long enough to do some real ballroom.

Judge Rinder
Danny
Ed
Greg
Claudia
Laura

I've been voting for someone different each week but I couldn't keep it up this time. Ed came on and demanded a vote from me at the death. (My family had already made demands on the other two votes. I'm sure other people have the same problem.)

No favourite for me either.
I tend to bide my time.

I haven't decided if Danny or Ore is my overall favourite. I'm starting to really like Claudia but I really don't like AJ so am finding it difficult to support them as a partnership.

For the rest, it's much easier to say who I don't like.

I don't have a favourite but I do like Ore, Danny and Claudia in equal measures. Sometimes I appreciate Daisy and Laura. Ed makes me laugh. Greg I find nice and polite. Louise and Anastasia leave me cold but I don't dislike them. Oh and Judge Rinder is OK too.

I have a clear favourite which is Laura but I also like Greg and Danny (not entirely because of Oti but partly ) Also got a soft spot for Claudia (she said 'fart' on teatime TV! )
I'm quite fond of Ed ... like Lesley he gives everything ... tho he's not as good a dancer. He commits 100% and is not self conscious.
They're a likeable bunch this year. I was liking Will too but sadly ... not to be

Every series have had a strong favourite......this series I dont. I like Greg because I love Team GB and all the athletics and Judge Rinder because I love his TV show.

But other than those links.........not particularly......dont think I will be bothered who wins

I don't have a favourite and I vote for different people every week depending on who I think needs the votes and has danced well IMO and/or entertained me.

Danny & Oti are my favourites and this is my first series where I've voted. I base this on BIB.

Like Ore & Nat but not Jo or Greg (but am warming to him). Can't stand Rinder and am indifferent to Oksana. Similar indifference to Claudia & AJ. Ed & Katya are hilarious and am liking them more and more each week. Louise and Kevin are a bit beige but don't mind either individually. Aljaz is my fave male pro but feel nothing for Daisy at all. Not a Brendan fan and Anastacia is a bit wearing now. Laura & Gio are OK and I like that they "wow" every now and then!
