Sad to see Rinder go. I actually preferred his routine to Ore's but think Ore is the better overall dancer so deserves to stay in.

So glad Claudia is through!!!

I am somewhat embarrassed to say yes.

Ore in the dance off. I actually expected him there .
Judge eliminated

Thanks everyone involved in providing the result

Yes. 10.17 for spoiler time.

As Mona says, Jenni is a confirmed source

Yippeeeeeee....if so its the first time I have won anything!

LOL Mona, I just realised

Thanks once again for your fantastic efforts on our behalf with the spoiler thread Monaogg!

And, similarly, many thanks to Jenni too!!

Only one more spoiler thread left this year!!!!!

Right, that's me out, won't be watching from now on. See you all next year and thank you so much for all the spoiler providers!!

Thanks for all your hard work, as always.

Total non-surprise there then!

All my votes to little tiny Claudia from now on

Thank you everyone and goodnight.

Pity about the Judge but it was this week or next.

Fear for Claudia next week.

I recall a couple of years ago Jake Wood was unexpectedly booted off.
He got a tweet from James Jordan - "Should've signed up the Tour, Mate"

Thanks to everyone involved in getting the Spoiler.

Only one more week of spinny chairs and snacks to go !!!

Thank you moles, males and miles all. Right result tonight, it was the weakest dancer's turn. Just wish there was some way that Danny "I'm aRinger" mac might be knobbled before the final.
😱 Heyho.....

Pleased with that result. Can watch next week without Judges gurning putting me off.

Option 4 wins @ 5/2. Winning time = 10.17.

A worthy reward for all your hard work
Thanks to moles and thread organisers

Now this has been confirmed, thank you Jenni! You're a diamond

Pinot still up for grabs, folks. Help yourselves.

RFS has made me crave Stilton. So also up if you fancy it X

Night all, thanks for your company this evening x

Yes, that was a real shock, Jake being eliminated after coming bottom of the leaderboard in the semis with the lowest scores for a semi-final in five years.

Gutted I wanted Ore out not Judge

His exit is long overdue. Thanks to all those bringing us the spoiler x

The most predictable result creates the most confusion.

Thank you for the spoiler.

Final Overall Leaderboard
1. Danny and Oti: 38 (5 points)
2. Claudia and AJ: 37 (4 points)
=. Louise and Oksana: 37 (4 points)
4. Ore and Joanne: 36 (3 points)
5. Judge Rinder and Oksana: 31 (2 points)

Nothing much about this - Claudia and Louise must have beaten Ore. Danny could have finished bottom of vote and survived.

The result I've been hoping wouldn't happen actually has. I have the sads!

Sorry for all the doubting. It's been such a funny evening with such unusual announcements that I wasn't sure what to believe, especially when I didn't really want to believe it. Thanks to the spoilers team for bringing clarity out of confusion.

I know they weren't everyone's cup of tea, but I have loved watching Robert and Oksana every week and they have been totally brilliant on Strictly this year.
