What do we think?

Don't know who but definitely a duffer for Kevin!

Agree. Even if he does not make it this year, we really need to see how he is with someone who has little if any innate ability.

Katya showed how to get people on your side when partnered with an unfit ex MP. So she should have someone who has final potential.

Agreed. Even if he doesn't win, he should get a duffer. It isn't fair that this is his fourth final. I have no doubt that Joanne and Oti will get duffers next year.

On assumption that the pros remain the same next year id go as follows
Jeanette another duffer
Gorka Middler
Karen Contender
Pasha Contender
Anton Middler
Brendan Contender
Giovani Duffer
Aliaz Middler
Natalie Contender
Katya Contender
Oksana Contender (idve put JR as a duffer towards the end)
AJ Older woman duffer
Oti Contender
Kevin WORLDS BIGGEST DUFFER
Joanne Duffer

How about Clarissa Dickson-Wright?

She died two years ago, poor lady. Hold on, were you maybe joking?

I suppose it's how you look at Kevin's record really.

Kevin: 4 finals (25% possible success rate or could still be 0%)
Brendan, Pasha, Lilia: 3 Finals 1 win (33% success rate)
Darren: 2 finals 1 win (50% success rate)
Aliona: 3 finals 2 wins (66% success rate)

He may have been in more finals than anyone else but not a roaring success when you look at conversion.

Oh and if Oti or Joanne win their success rate would be 100% for their first final.

Oti probably will, but I don't think Joanne would.

Ah, I probably meant the other one - what is her name? Sorry.

But you get the idea!

Same as Jo, Chloe and Neil should both get reasonable partners having sat out this year.

Sadly she's died as well.

While I'm a fan of the Clifton's, I'd like to see Kevin get a duffer next year. Maybe Jo Brand?

I'm at a loss why you think Oti should get a contender and Jo a duffer.

Chloe- Ringer
Katya- the rigiest ringer
Janette - ringer (she's never had one want to see what she could do)
Jo- duffer or middler
Karen- ringer
Oti- middler or duffer
Natalie- Ringer
Oksanna- ringer
(Don't think they'll find that many ringers so Oksanna Katya and Chloe get first refusal)

Aljaz- middler or duffer
AJ- whoever is the shortest
Kevin - DUFFER
Gorka- Ringer
Anton- Middler
Pasha- Ringer
Brendan- Ringer
Gio- Duffer

Chloe- Will hopefully leave the show.

Karen- Ringer
Oksanna- Ringer
Kevin - Hottest, youthful, sexiest, likeable ringah EVAH!
Gorka- Ringer
Pasha- Ringer

Jo- Middling/ringer as she's had a duffer and sat one out.
Katya- Middling
Natalie- Middling

Oti- Duffer or Middler
Aljaz- Middler
AJ- Middler

Janette - Duffer because she's not that great.
Anton- Over 60
Brendan- Duffer

So many ringers needed!

This ... with bells on. A proper 24 carat duffer for Kevin please.

Kevin's arguably had four contenders in a row so there's no limit but it's the personal choice of the poster and so they can wish a duffer on Jo if they want to. Karen's had more than her fair share but will probably get another ... it's her own fault ... she's pretty good with duffers and she let the only real contender she's had slip through her fingers (careless Karen ... we can't trust you not to do it again .. back to dufferdom!)
Janette is pretty awful with her choreography, she doesn't really deserve a contender.
Aljaz has had a lot of contenders but it's so nice to see him every week so I'm putting in for another.
Pasha: Contender
Brendan: Duffer
Anton: Comedy Duffer
Oksana: Middler
Oti: Middler or Contender
AJ: Middler
Giovanni: Duffer
Jo: Middler or Duffer
Katya: Contender
Natalie: Contender
Gorka: Contender
Kevin: Massive Duffer

AJ - Ringer - Someone a bit like Louise, not another really young one.
Aljaz - Duffer - Maybe time for him to have someone a bit older.
Anton - Middler - Don't think he'll be back though.
Brendan - Ringer - If he is back, give him someone good, and then retire him.
Giovanni - Middler/Duffer - Wasn't impressed this time. Give him whoever is left.
Gorka - Ringer - Would really love to see him get a ringer next year!
Janette - Duffer - I like Janette, but she's not a great teacher, and she has the personality for a comedy duffer, so she can have one of them.
Joanne - Middler - Got lucky this year, but Ore is not a ringer by any means, and she had a dud in Scott and no one last year, so a middler for next year.
Karen - Middler/Ringer - Feel bad for how it turned out for her this year. I don't think she's a great pro for the contenders, but would give her someone decent next year.
Katya - Ringer - Just as with Oti this year, I would really love for Katya to get someone really good next year.
Kevin - DUFFER - Someone of Widdy calibre, please!
Natalie - Middler/Ringer - Not too impressed with her this year, but had enough weaker partners over the years.
Oksana - Middler - On one hand, Judge was not a bad partner for her first series, but on the other hand, she hardly got a chance to show her talent.
Oti - Duffer - I think Oti should get the old guy next year. However, would love to see her with another contender after that. She was sublime this year with Danny!
Pasha - Ringer - Had a dreadful series this year, and a duffer last time, so due someone good.

I'm voting for Louise so that Kevin finally wins and gets someone really bad next year.

That would be the only consolation. There's always a silver lining

Gorka - Middler
Karen - Contender
Pasha - Contender (hoping he stays, about time he had another contender)
Anton - Middler
Brendan - Contender
Giovanni - Middler/Duffer
Aljaz - Duffer
Natalie - Middler
Katya - Contender
Oksana - Contender
AJ - A late 20's middler (hopefully to get away from the young songs)
Oti - Middler
Kevin - Duffer (if he wins I think he'll have the same route as Pasha)
Joanne - Middler

Neil & Chloe - Middler

What do we think post show?

Really feel Kevin needs to sit out the later stages next season and I say that as someone who thinks he is brilliant on the show. Just feel it would be nice for some of the other pros to make it to the end.

Think it it safe to say Oti, Joanne and Kevin (possibly) won't get ringers next season.

I think Katya deserves a good partner. AJ will probably get someone fairly young again. Would like to see Karen get a ringer- has paid her dues over the years and was unlucky that Will dropped out.

Duffers:
Giovanni
Kevin
Aljaz
Jo (slightly unfair since she had Scott, but I firmly believe all winners should get duffers the following year!)
Oti (give her a ringer for 2018, though!)

Middlers:
AJ (can't see him with a duffer yet)
Chloe
Neil
Oksana
Anton
Karen

Ringers:
Katya
Pasha
Gorka
Natalie

Spare pros:
Brendan
Janette

That would be ideal for me!
