That's my opinion too - he's been effectively 'cushioned' by getting the most showy of his available dances up to this point. After this week, his available dances are AT, Foxtrot, Tango, VW, or Rumba - none of which can really be jazzed up in any 'Ed Balls' way! I'd expect him to have a relatively staid VW or Tango, and for him to be eliminated that week. This week will be one of the others - I'm still thinking Greg is out, but something is telling me Louise is ripe for the drop to the bottom 2, given her dance.

"Born to Handjive" for a QS sounds like a finale to Greg's involvment in SCD to me. His ballroom is better than his latin for sure, but he looks on borrowed time. B2 bounce is a possibility, but unless he's polling at the very top there are too few of them left for it to make a huge amount of difference.

Rindy draws the cursed salsa straw this week as well, so I reckon it's between those two.

Would be nice if Cloudier had a proper "sit up and watch" dance but getting a jive the same week as Ed kind of scuppers that. Think she and Louise should be safe for another couple of weeks. There are three who probably deserve to go before either of them, so while a B2 visit is possible, it isn't likely either will go out.
