I have so enjoyed this young man's dancing. I don't know a heel lead from a gancho but I love the infectious joy he brings to all his dances.

Danny is an incredible dancer and I enjoy watching him dance, but he's almost too good. As the judges often comment, it's hard to spot the difference between him and a professional.

I'm afraid Louise and Claudia's dances leave me indifferent.

I don't quite understand the antipathy toward Ore. Is it because he's partnered with a Clifton? If that's the case, it's a pathetic excuse. I watch Strictly to view the celebrity who is dancing, not the professional.

So whatever the outcome, Ore is for me, the stand-out dancer whether he takes the glitter ball or not.

Same here. I know next to nothing about dancing. It's all about whether I find it engaging to watch or not, and I find his performances and presence impressive. He really brings the character to life.

Loved Ed Balls as well for sheer entertainment, and the Judge. I don't dislike the others but I largely just find 'em a bit 'meh' by comparison, if I watch them.

Each to their own. I predict a celebrity will win.

I think Ore and Claudia have both improved the most from the outset: Danny was already great, and whilst I enjoy watching him dance, I want to see someone learn and improve. Louise is just a bit meh: she's nice enough, but the only dance that really stood out for me was her AT. Ore's learned to dance from nothing, and I agree - his enthusiasm is infectious.

I too would like to see Ore win. He isn't the technically best of the 4 remaining, but I admire the way he has come from a complete non-dance background, and it would be good to see a true beginner win.

I shall wait and see who the finalists are and how they dance. However, if it was based on whose dancing I have enjoyed most over the series then my vote would go to Danny.

I have enjoyed some of all of the potential 4 finalists dances over the series. Just not as consistently as Danny and Oti's. But I shall wait and see what the final brings, I really don't have an outright fave this year.

So is Claudia, as a gymnast, a dancer then, don't think so. The judges are obviously on Ore's side for some reason though. He would be the bottom of my list as good as he is.

He's my winner too. He's passionate and exciting to watch. Sometimes he doesn't get it right, when he does it's absolutely wonderful.

And for me, he is always compelling to watch. He has true charisma.

He's also learned to very, very well indeed and he gives it thought and emotion and expresses the dances beautifully.

I too love Ore and what ever happens he's my winner 🏆

Through out this series Ore and Jo are the only partnership that has made me smile with joy

While I agree his dancing's improved , I don't know how anyone could ignore the blatant favouritism he's enjoyed from the judges . Fair enough he's got better , but so have others who haven't been given the credit they deserve .

When was that then? Just last night? Because he kept coming lower than the others for weeks, I suppose it was all part of some 'favouritism' plan?

so many threads out there taken over by fix and judges favouring him last night, whilst he is not technically the best I hope he makes the final over the series have enjoyed his routines more than many.

Also can I say I loved the pure happiness on his mums face after the quickstep

He was lower than others for a reason , certain contestants have danced far better and not been rewarded anywhere near as much imo .

if there was a favourite and a big IF, then Louise is the biggest candidate especially after last night's Samba

Actually he danced his HEART out last night, and was deserving. And both his dances were full of character and passion and showmanship.

The others had one dodgy dance.

And Danny's Salsa was a bit pants, and so was Claudia's Rhumba.

Let me get this straight...
So Ore was scored lower because he was the worse dancer, but other celebs danced far better but was never rewarded with higher scores ?

How is that possible

I find Ore smug and sometimes the tone of his comments to camera irritates me, like that one the other day, something about it's time to up your game or leave. Insufferable.

Straighforward sports shtick - he's a sports reporter.

He was also right.

Ore seems like a nice guy who clearly loves dancing and embodies the best of this show which is when someone finds a talent they didn't even know they had. He's been a great addition to the show this year.

His jive is still my favourite dance and moment of the series.

Normally, I would back someone like Ore, but this year, I prefer Danny and Oti. They are too good not to support. I have been voting for both Danny and Ore but if they are both in the final, I will be voting only for Danny. I think that he deserves to win more.

Out of curiosity why does Danny deserve to win more?

I have just enjoyed their performances more. I also love their partnership. This year, no other couple has come close to Danny and Oti. I have re-watched their dances multiple times.
