How flipping wonderful, three molies!! That's awesome!! Thank you all, and to Monaogg and team, thank you so very much for all your hard work.

Shout out to Abigailsmum too. I hope you feel able to come back and join in the fun, whether as part of the team, who stepped into your shoes so valiantly or as a poster. You've been much-missed chick. xx

Brilliant news. Of all the weeks this seems the most important and exciting.

Well done to the spoiler team!

I get it. This was the X'mas spoiler day, we couldn't find you.

I was wondering how come DM haven't contacted you??.

Mondays I work all day and play Crib at night. So generally a bit of a rush that day.

Saturday we had an area internet outage just at a crucial time for list updating. So my luck does not always run to expectations. .

A bit of advice that could be tagged on each page/page 1. I advise that rather than refreshing endlessly, refresh once then leave for 2/3 minutes so it allows the moles to have bandwidth to post/access PMs/log in.

You have done very well, we have been spoiled by you and your team. Really can't fault you guys. You have a good team.


Crib is a card game, right ??? Don't know anything about. Is it fun??

Crib is a card game, it's not as hard to pick up as you think, I still miss not playing in the local league, some nights you win some you don't but it's always a good nights entertainment 🍻
One more person thankful for all the hard work you put into making this thread as fantastic and reliable as it is, thanks a lot it makes my weekend less stressful

Thanks, Jiver . I might try and learn during the X'mas break. Game must attract a lot of people to have local leagues.

Ok I'm probably developing paranoia after the last few days I've had but I'm really not sure if a few posts in this thread are designed at giving me stick for sourcing spoilers from here or not.

If they are (and again this could be paranoia on my part) then believe me I will be giving people the credit they deserve and thanking them in the next few days very publicly

As far as the media targeting me rather than people on here believe me I have not enjoyed this. Sadly, through no fault of my own because the success of my site which was entirely accidental, my name has become synonymous with the spoiler. I don't like this any more than other people but I've accidentally dug a very large hole for myself and I'm kind of stuck in it!

/ends paranoia!

Hi Davethorp You know I am a genuine fan of your work. I know you do give credit
where it's due. That was a genuine question??. I am surprised DM havem't come after
DS. They must know about the forum. I was wondering why are they only after you??.
So many spoilers and why hassle only you. I am trying to figure out, why only you??.
Trying to help you.

Ok paranoia then. My apologies but I've had a really bad weekend and I don't know where someone is giving me stick or not

In answer to your question my guess is because of something I said in my last post. My name has become synonymous with the spoiler because I used to post it on my blog and a lot of my search traffic at the time searched for "Dave thorp strictly". Also my site has search ranking and is high up if not top of the searches for relevant keywords. My site has also become the most visited spoiler source these last few weeks gaining even more views than the spoiler thread on here.

I take little pleasure from that. I'm fully aware my site would not exist if it were not for here. Monaogg is already aware I will be thanking her and how I will be doing so as we spoke yesterday and I've also extended the same offer to Abigailsmum but she's been absent on these forums since she stepped down

Don't have to apologise for your website's high traffic, I am very happy for you and the people who come to your website are people like us, who can't go to sleep on a Saturday night, without knowing the 'Spoiler'. I know you do give credit where it's due, I was only worried whether they were trying track down all the websites. I hope the traffic increases and your website does very well. Good luck.

We all love you and do appreciate your acknowledgement of the results providers.

Although I do have a feeling that next year the results will be all over the web soon after people get let out of the show.

We will still need the spoiler thread even if that happens. Its the highlight of Strictly for me. Cant believe we only have one more week. Good news on the moles.

Thanks to all who have contributed to getting the result to us and keeping the guess the time list up to date. Especially you Monaogg who took up the reins from Abigailsmum at short notice.

BIB Wholeheartedly second that Dave.

Don't let them get to you.

All the on line comments I have seen ( bar one idiot ) have been very supportive of you and of all the other outlets that announce the spoiler. The papers are just enjoying having a go at the beeb is the way I see it and really, the amount of spoilering they do, without giving any warning !! they are in no position to try and take the moral high ground.

I think Mona is right re next year.
More and more, on Twitter particularly, but also on newspaper comments, I see people posting results ( not just Strictly ) if the programme is in any way delayed from the actual event. So, next year, expect more of the same.
