The guy embodies the Strictly Spirit well. The Journey this guy has been on is magical.. and unlike Louise, Danny and Claudia he hasn't got an dancing pedigree, that HAS to be taken into account when deciding on who to vote for and ultimately who wins the show.

So let Ora pull another rabbit out of the hat and make the final !

Trump, Brexit.. Ora 2016 Strictly champion!?

Any and all of them deserve to go to the final.

So happy for him, seems such a lovely gentleman man.

He doesn't he's the weakest of the 4 judges on crack

I would like to see him in the final. Think Danny will win it though!

He definitely deserves to go through and embodies what I like in this show - a novice finding a talent - than the others do.

I hope he and Claudia go through and don't mind who joins them.

Who is Ora?

Every year somebody picks up on what a judge has said and jumps on the bandwagon. Last year it was Craig on Jays lack of facial expression.this year its been Len saying Kevin showcases his partner, now Lens comment this evening. He doesn't seem to have a problem with this every other year he's judged the show, so why now? Let me guess...

He needed a leg up from the Judges who duly delivered tonight

Darcy giving a 10 when she criticised his top line in the QS (penalising other couples for similar comments)

That AT was Joanne Clifton dancing around a plank of 2x2. No intricate leg work no A frame no movement from Ore ... 8's at best.

I just don't like watching him dance, the faces he pulls annoy me. Also he hasn't had much music I've liked. Whatever happens next week, at least we won't have to endure him next year.

That's totally unfair!

Ore was at least a 2x4 not a 2x2 plank

Couldn't have put it better. Ore is exceptional and has HAD to learn the most to get to such a high standard. Tonight he was extraordinary and has earned his final place.

All 4 couples deserve to go to the final - however, I do think Danny (AS) and Claudia(QS) were under marked and Ore definitely over marked in both his dances. He did very little in the AT and he lost his balance when supporting Joanne. Sadly he was the weakest dancer this week.

well well well who'd have thought they'd suddenly realise all along their mistake of not putting BBC'S own ore at the top of the leaderboard, and in semi final week of all times, eh?
And good 'ol len giving him the 'non dancer' sympathy vote on top, just to hammer home the message. Wasn't ore in 'strictly comic relief' a couple of years ago? And who says he's not had private lessons since february ?

You know if makes sense people

Danny Mac thinks he has this in the bag

I didn't know Rita Ora was doing Strictly this year!

Ore does

don't be nasty, Ore will cry.
Oh, actually he cries when people are nice.
There's no way out of the water mill, despair.

Don't believe he has not had some dance training before the start of Strictly.

Ore comes across to me as very fake. All those flipping tears give it a break.

Well he's stated publicly that he hasn't and no one has found any.

But if it makes you feel better.

And Ore is lovely and sometimes more nervous than he appears.

I love that he's feeling.

He transmits emotion of all sorts through his dancing. Something I admire.

he danced the best tonight after Danny so therefore I think he deserves a place in the final

So he's been sidelined for ages and that's all part of their dastardly plan then?

Jeeze.

Makes me feel better about what?

Darren Gough was the 2x4 plank
