Judges, celebs, pro dancers - they all think one way it seems. I didnt realise this way Em tv.

Maybe they are right: I should be voting for Emma too. Yeah right.

I'd love to see Emma win the show they're going on about-- the one in which she is good and interesting.... When is it on?

to be honest, I have genuinely thought about this and I'm coming round to their point of view. She has been consistent, she hasn't done a 'bad' dance.

She's not Louisa but I think I'd rather she won it now than matt or mark

I half expected Matt and Mark to come out and say they're supporting Emma. Still a few days to go yet . . .

She makes me look interesting!

You see Dolly, they have persuaded you in the end.

I would rather jump in the river than vote for her; which is incidentally what I might do to calm down if she does win.

oh I don't think she's interesting particularly - but then nor is Mark. Matt has the best personality left but he's still too stiff in the latin. Love his ballroom though

You see she is a very good dancer and obviously a very good dancer





However I still won't vote for her not because I dislike her but Mark inspires me more, sorry Emma

Just you wait and see - those two trees will be voting for Emma tomorrow

One question: Is this going to be said everytime she goes on ITT? Oh I forgot it already is

Even my sister, who doesn't come on the Internet and isn't supporting anyone in particular said "Too much Emma again!"

Until now I hadn't totally bought into all the Selling Emma stuff so far - I was still feeling vaguely sorry for her with the lack of public support - but tonight's show REALLY was the EMMA show. I started to feel queasy in the middle of the 'Darren is an inspirational choreographer' fest. I certainly think he is, but the blanket coverage and the length of that montage was just a step too far for me (and I started this series feeling Darren was my favourite male professional).

Don't know about ITT more like EmTV - good grief could the BBC do anymore to put me off voting for Emma. I had yet to be totally swayed over who to vote for - but after tonights little debacle there is NO WAY I will vote for Emma now. After all she obviously doesn't need our votes when the rest of the dancing world and the BBC are rooting for her. Poor Mark and Matt only supported by the "christmas trees"

Right ok...........Have given further thought to this whole issue!..........and I do agree, she HAS turned out to be a very good dancer, and to be fair largley due to Darren's choreography and I guess teaching................but......only my opinion, just can't warm to her as I did in series 2 to Jill & Darren.
With Mark & Matt, their - yes I'm going to say it!! - Journey has been more obvious, just think Matt began with that awful pink shirt, barely moving around the floor - now look at him!!! - I agree the footage of their Foxtrot looked very very good - matching lilia step for step as he did and was pointed out by Philip Jackson & Brendan, when they did the quickstep - I believe they said "sign of a good dancer"
Mark started off brilliantly, but there have been a few hit & misses - I'm just hoping Karen can keep it together & bring back some of the magic of their Paso Doble - apart from not swirling the cape in time, it really was brilliant!
I have to say I would like it to be M V M in the final - but.... a 2 couple final??!! can't see it - bet next weeks "surprise" will be all 3 go through to the final!
Mark my words, what ever else happens - Mzzz.Bunton will be in that final!!

there was too much support of emma and i think it would have been better if we could have heard from someone who supports mark or matt as well. I would rather they had shown us training footage of how emma was doing in her salsa rather than lots of people supporting her.

LOL I hope they are more vocal than they were for Matt and Mark tonight.

It was pro Emma tonight, but the dancers were asked who they supported and there are only 3 of them left. I don't mind them favouring her over my favourite, that I can deal with. However imo, Emma is a great dancer, probably marginally the best technically left, but her and Darren's dancing and relationship is just "nice but bland" to me. You have to have the whole package to win a show like this.

Yeah they should have told all the pros to lie. They should randomly assign each one a 'favourite' celeb who they must say they support....

Or, you know, they could just say what they actually think...

I have no problems with who the pros chose to support. That's entirely their opinion and it's interesting to hear what they say as they usually have good reason for it. Len didn't seem to play favourites at all and, if he did, you could easily argue it was Matt after all he said about him.

Hehe.

Thanks for the comments on here people, they have cheered me up. I will put off that river jumping for a while longer.

Keep smiling.

Hmm...

I have the marks to prove it, from the more intense supporters, but I've said from day one the BBC production department have been pushing for Emma to be in the final.
Hardly suprising who they chose as her professional.
Lilia who was the winning professional last year was again assigned to a sportsman, "what were the chances of this one winning?"

But the BBC are always fair aren't they?
Dollystanford
13-12-2006
I do think though that some of the other professional dancers need to be given the 'favourites' at some point. I know Darren got Gloria last year but it's been the Darren and Lilia show for a while! I love them, don't get me wrong, but would love to see more of some of the others

I would love to see how Lilia does with one of the older celebs - I don't think poor Flavia stood a chance.

Maybe they are assigned as Darren and lilia are both very popular pros as is Karen after last year with Bill.

I thought I'd give ITT a miss tonight, as I'm not an Emma fan, and also Englebert Humperdink . Gutted that I missed Anton though.

But, peeps, was it really that biased? Was it truly the Emma Bunton roadshow? If it's not balanced out with A Markfest and Mattfest on Thursday and Friday (unlikely, as Karen and Mark appeared on Tuesday) this situation is really getting out of hand now. Who is going to pop up in support of Emma next? The Pope? The Queen? The Dalai Lama?

BTW, I'm not having a pop at any Emma fans, everyone is entitled to support whoever they like, but come on, you have to admit, there's something fishy here. Last week Karen and Mark's picture was even missing from the BBC SCD flash page!

I'm not sure whether you're being sarcastic or not... do you think Lilia was given some kind of advantage with Matt? Do you remember the first show? Matt danced very slightly better than Jimmy Tarbuck! Short of giving her Jimmy himself, I don't think the BBC could have given her a bigger disadvantage!

they claim it's random don't they, but how can it be? you couldn't have put Zoe Ball with Vincent!

It was very pro Emma - for the first time I wanted to switch off.
