Not quite.
Its perfectly possible that if Claudia had been above Ore on the leaderboard (as everyone thinks she should have been) then the dance off might have been Ore/Danny. We can't say for certain that would've happened but it's possible. The judges over-scoring Ore and under-scoring Claudia could have made the difference. |

I am sure if I am wrong someone will correct me. |

I think this result is indicative of how Claudia has been treated all season so I'm not surprised at all.
Consistently under marked compared to others especially in her AT, QS and AS and I think at the end of the day the judges just didn't seem to warm to her as much as they did with Ore and Louise (not their fault of course). I just knew once she was in the DO she was a goner.

I agree. I'm getting a tad annoyed at people who say that not enough people voted for Claudia and that is why she was in the dance off. It was not as simplistic as that.
It is as it is. |

Claudia's rumba was easily the worst dance of the night. You can't get through on the basis of one good dance and one crap one at 2 Dance stage unless your name is Lisa Snowdon.

I don't remember her falling over in one of her dances or slipping. She had a decent rumba and an impeccable QS
Agree. Louise makes a mistake, all the judges mention it, yet she gets three 9's and a 10. Ore makes a mistake and doesn't really dance an AT and yet gets three 10's. Claudia does makes no mistakes and does a brilliant quickstep, the judges really praise it and yet she doesn't get even one 10. Totally ridiculous scoring |

I feared she did. Great relief that she's gone at last. |

Still, if she had had enough votes, and Louise hadn't and all that.

Not true. The judges scores were irrelevant. Ed Balls proved that.
At this point in the competition though the judges scoring is much more important and relevent to who stays and who goes. |

I think people like Ed Balls are a different kettle of fish. Their popularity can over-turn the judges scores.

MAYBE CLAUDIA SHOULD JUST COME BACK WHEN SHE'S 40, ASK TO DANCE WITH SOMEONE NAMED CLIFTON AND TURN ON THE TEARS EVERY 5 MINUTES. That is a sure fire way of her getting to the final! |

Or Ore. Last night he had a good quickstep, although Claudia's was better and an absolutely awful supposed Argentine Tango where he walked, posed, lifted Joanne, kicked his leg, walked again, posed again and Joanne danced and pulled the most awful faces
I thought he was great. I thought Claudia's Rhumba, whilst not bad and a damned good try, was not good. And I KNOW the Rhumba. |

Nope and Ore is consistently way over marked.

She got saved with that very ropey jive in the DO against the arguably better-on-the-night Greg. So maybe it's just QSs that are badly treated, rather than Claudia...

Of course she stood a chance. All she had to do was work on the issue that the judges had been asking her to for a month or so - and focus on dance, performance and connection.
I don't think she was the worst dancer (second to last last night) but they were the worst partnership and she was the worst performer. |

Seems the poll is settling down at around 60/40 YES she was screwed over!

I'd agree her jive was the only dance that was overmarked but how she didn't get at least one 10 for her AT and.
