OK, so thought this may be fun to rank the current batch of professionals (I’ve excluded Neil and Chloe as they are without partners and therefore it’s difficult to judge at the moment from just pro dances and tit-bits from ITT).

For voting all you need to do is rank the Professionals from 1 to 15, your favourite ranked at Number 1 will receive 15 points, 2nd place 14 points, 3rd place 13 points and so on and so forth until 15th place will receive just 1 point

Current Professionals

AJ Pritchard
Aljaz Skorjanec
Anton du Beke
Brendan Cole
Giovanni Pernice
Gorka Marquez
Janette Manrara
Joanne Clifton
Karen Clifton
Katya Jones
Kevin Clifton
Natalie Lowe
Oksana Platero
Oti Mabuse
Pasha Kovalev


After the voting period, I will tot up all the points and post the results with which Pro received which amount of points and we find DS’ favourite Pro for 2016.

Voting will be open until 6PM on Sunday 18th December; so plenty of time to mull over your lists and where you want to place each Pro. Obviously you can base your rankings how you see fit as I’m sure some will go for who they like and others teaching, dancing or choreography… or maybe a mixture of everything. Anyway it’s up to you how you want to judge who your faves are and why.

Happy voting

with tied votes, the person listed first will get the higher point value, so basically everyone is awarding the same amount of points as each other to make it fair

I like Kevin Clifton the best of the male pros; Oti best among the ladies. They all seem pleasant and hardworking to me, though.

1 Aljaz Skorjanec
2 Oti Mabuse
3 Pasha Kovalev
4 Giovanni Pernice

8 Janette Manrara
9 Oksana Platero
10 Brendan Cole
11 Anton du Beke
12 Kevin Clifton
13 Joanne Clifton
14 Natalie Lowe
15 Karen Clifton

I feel bad putting 3 women at the bottom of the list. I don't dislike any of them but find all 3 a little annoying.

Pasha would be lower down the list if I was only considering how much I like his personality. However, I admit there are aspects of Pasha that I like, that have nothing to do with his dancing or general demeanour....

Just trying to work mine out - but I'm a bit confused by people's lists - sorry to use this one as an example! - does this mean that Aljaz is your favourite who you want to rank number one and receive 15 points? I think you mean that - but as you have listed him as 15 I wasn't sure if he was your 15th ranked pro. I only presume that you mean the opposite to that as I think it's more likely that you rank Aljaz as number 1 than Karen (though I may be wrong and you might be a big Karen fan!) Just pointing it out as I think people have been doing it in different ways.

yeah I've already pm'd Jlroos to clarify and 15 is referring to the points as Aljaz is his favourite pro.

But if people could indicate if they go rogue then would be good

I can't edit my post any longer but it was highest (Katya) to lowest (Giovanni). Do you want me to re-post?

I don't really dislike any of them, I think they are all very talented dancers and excellent teachers and I really admire that in all of them. There are just a couple that I really want to score pretty well so I want to vote. To be honest the list would change almost every day.

Favourite today:
Oti
Natalie
Alijaz
Pasha
Anton
Gorka
Katya
Karen
Janette
Brendan
AJ
Oksana
Jo
Giovanni
Kevin (and Kevin is very good - just unfortunately I know a couple of obsessive Kevin fans who have ruined him for me at the moment - I'm sure he'll win me round again, but I don't think it will be with Louise.)

9: Joanne

From what I've seen of Neil he'd probably be up near the top if he had a partner.
