Who do you think will be the first to leave? I can't believe how great they all are and I just hope Kate doesn't have to quit because it be nice to see her.

I reckon Stephanie will be the first to go

I kills me to say this, but i think it will be either Letitia or Stephanie. Although, if stepanie is doing ballroom i think she has the potential to be quite good.

It's a tough group, and I think any way it goes we're going to lose a real competitor. It isn't like the previous series (or even the boys this year) where there are a few folk who obviously won't last long.

I'm with PinkGlitter: it'll be Stephanie or Letitia, even though I think they'd both be great fun to have around for a while longer.

If the lovely Kate dances I fear she may goShe didn't dance last night so I imagine she will be uber nervous next week

It's actually quite unfair that one of the girls will go next week, when they all seem much stronger than many of the men! One of the reasons I don't like this idea of men dancing one week, women the next. A lot depends on how they dance next week of course, and rumba is traditionally marked low, which will not help those doing it, including Letitia. However I do think if she goes, the competition will lose someone with loads of personality, which I don't see in many of the other celebrities.

Yeh I reckon Leticia will also be in the bottom two which sucks. I was so excited when I heard she was in SCD - I have high hopes for her, especially being placed with Darren.

Ideally I would like Kelly to go

Next week will SCD clash with the rugby semi-final? Whih could affect viewing figures

Steph is doing ballroom so she'll stay.

Think Aleesha, Steph, Leticia will be safe-and Kate if she dances will get the sympathy vote.

Which leaves the other three.

Ho Ho what a problem it could give the judges

Darren is a great teacher and choreographer. If anyone can help her past the first few nervous weeks, he can.

I think Kelly, Alesha and Penny are the best dancers so it will be out of the others. I thought Gaby was a bit wooden! I didn't think Letitia was that good but she had a lot of personality!

Now I've been made to think about it, I hate the idea of any of the females going so early.

(alphabetical order)
Alesha - no - absolutely not - no.
Gabby - I want her to do well.
Kate - I liked her. With Anton as a partner and the sympathy vote. I hope she get through the first elimination.
Kelly - Good
Letitia - SCD needs her!
Penny - Must be on the BBC's A list
Stephanie - Separates SCD from X-Factor.

OK, there are a couple of male celebrities I would nominate before any of the above females but, to justify me posting on this thread - here goes

The bottom three will be:
Kate, Penny and Stephanie.

The bottom two will be: (10 minute thinking time:yawn
Kate and Stephanie

Kate will leave. (I wanted a sad face, but a cry face is the best I could get).

As much as I hate to say it, I really think Letitia will be in the bottom two next week I think either Tish & Kate or Tish & Stephanie, and hope the judges will save Tish obviously, but I dunno, if the public vote on popularity then Tish has a strong chance of staying.



I don't think Kate will do too good *shakes head*

I hope im not proved wrong but I dont think Letitia will be in the bottom two.

She has a decent fan base and Darren is a popular professional. Not only that but Im sure he has choreographed a graet routine. I reckon she overdid it a bit in the group dance last night but will have calmed down by next week.

I think Kate and Penny or Kate and Steph will be in the bottom two.

I dont know why I think that actually?

I agree, and it's especially bad this year because, as you say, the women are so much stronger.


I find Letitia annoying, but I think she'll be in for a long time, regardless of how good or poor a dancer she is, partly because of her "personality", partly from Eastenders support, and partly because she's not too good looking. (I'm cynical that way.)

I think Kelly is in danger of going unless she dances very well.

Agreed - I think Stephanie will be sensational in the ballroom (hell, she manages to look elegant while just standing still!), but obviously there is going to be a limit to her talents. And Letitia's enthusiasm is great, but I can't see her going very far (the Claire King of this year, maybe).

Alesha, Kelly and Penny, on the other hand, looked the business

Looks like Gabby and Kelly are going to have a hard time on this forum...... What are you going to do if they really can dance..... which on the evidence of last night they can. If the guys don`t dramatically improve it will be a travesty if the girls start to end up in the bottom 2. Anyway the the public made the right choice last night so fingers crossed the best dancers will survive this year.

I think Gabby is going to come in for a hell of a lot of stick over here, she was a rhythmic gymnast forgodssake, I can't see how that's not giving her an advantage, but then there's also ex-popstars, stage school kids, and I think even Letitia has dance training. I can see Gabby being singled out though, with the whole husband/wife swapping thing - the beeb seem to think we'll find it amusing.

I want Kate and Stephanie to do well mostly because of their partners!

It will probably be Kate.
She's had a lack of training time, she can't walk unaided at the moment and the other women looked great.
I don't see (or even want) Letitia going after her exhuberant perfomance yesterday.
Fanbase of the pros will make little difference, but their choreography will.

Kate will get the sympathy vote

I want the best dancers to survive. What happens if Gabby really is good and keeps finding herself in the bottom 2. I know she`s very competitive but so was Mark last year and he was loved on this forum. I think I`am one of the few that agrees that the judges should have the final say.

Result Spoiler

But Mark was so unassuming and didn't take it too seriously. Gobby's personality might not endear herself to the public in the way Mark did

I think Kate will be in the bottom 2 with Stephanie, all the female dancers were good, the competition is so tough, but Kate hasnt practised and Stephanie isnt as good as the others. Much as I would like to see both these 2 stay, Kate to give Anton a chance, and Stephanie because i think she will be very funny.
The girls are going to take the trophy away this year, im convinced, apart from John Barnes, the other males are not in the same league.

I reckon it could be between Stephanie and Letitia, because I just can't see any of the others being voted out yet.

Kate may also struggle if she still has injury niggles.

I fear it may be stephanie but would like it to be Gabby

I think it's a VERY tough one. Those who don't seem to be necessarily as good are people like Stephanie who have a lot of support based on their personality. Conversely, some of those who are very good seem to be not particularly liked.

I don't think there's an obvious one to go at all which is both exciting and slightly nerve wracking. I'll quite happily state now that if Alesha goes I'll cry. A lot.
