This week I can see Kates' injury being Stephanies' salvation.

But next week if both Willie and Stephanie are required to dance a latin then it's fifty-fifty which of these two will be toast.

I think Stehanie is far more capable of a latin no than Willie.

I think her humour is too clever for some people. She is a very funny lady.

As for the ghastly group dance - more like a pole dance -don't you think she actually had a good point? It was more sex and covortion than disciplined latin or ballroom.

Of the girls I think it will be Kate or Letitia personally. Letitia has a very hard dance to be fair and Kate I can't see her managing a good quickstep with the injury she has (if it is as bad as is made out).

So long as she survives this week then I feel a few more boys will leave before the girls, but we wait and see them dance.
Letitias preview last night on ITT looked very good. Surprised me

Have a feeling it will be between Kate and Stephanie.

Totally agree, Letitia look VERY good. Hope she can do as well tonight!

Both Len and Arlene seemed to like Letitia. The judges could decide Kate can't really improve with that injury or give her the benefit of the doubt. No telling how they will go.

I hope Stephanie doesn't go out tonight. I don't think she'll win but she hasn't been that bad from what I've seen so far so I'd like to see her stay for a few more weeks yet if only to hear some more of her wonderfully pithy put-downs

Stephanie has to stay. The competition would be poorer without her in it. I'm an Anton fan but Kate's injury has thrown a spanner in the works, and to be honest if it came down to Kate and Stephanie in the bottom 2 I'd far rather see Stephanie saved.

It's disappointing (and arrogant) that the BBC have ignored the wishes of many
It's ironic (and arrogant) that a few people expect to be able to dictate what millions watch!

If the vocal few had their way we'd be watching Karen dance with Anton voted for by a few people who'd passed strict selection criteria (no females over 21) and been instructed in 'things you are allowed to consider when voting'

According to the most recent poll, Alesha, Letitia or Stephanie will be in the bottom 3 this week.

Is it this one?

I've been watching the results of that with interest, there is something slightly fishy about it if you ask me.
Last week it had Kenny as the male celeb people were most looking forward to- didn't save him from the bottom two though.

This is a NEGATIVE poll so of little relevance.

I would place more reliance on betting threads tbh than individuals websites.

How many people have voted on that though? There are only 68 registered users!

I don't think polls are ever that reflective- last year the DS polls had hundreds of votes, and they kept showing Matt as having no support, even in weeks when he was winning the public vote.

Some of the polls are on quite obscure websites, many people would not bother to vote anyway to be honest, and as you say, some sites have so few members it is not relevant anyway. My view is that polls are totally unreliable - I wouldn't bother voting on them either really.

I really hope Stephanie does not go tonight.

I think if she is in the bottom two with Kate then she will stay because surely Kate's injury will get worse if she stays in the competition, I just hope Kate doesn't get the sympathy vote to avoid the bottom two because I don't think a fit dancer should go out while Kate is still injured as she may have to pull out anyway next week if she gets worse.

But I really hope Stephanie can avoid the bottom two all together really

Hi Katie, I think you misunderstand the website. The polls referred to and published are run by email with many thousands of contributers. Website members are also entitled to vote.

Ok, I did only have a quick look. I'm still not sure I think it means anything, particularly before we have really seen everyone dance. I guess we'll find out tonight how accurate it is

If there hadn't been all this fuss over discrepencies with phone voting, I'm sure it would be "arranged" for Kate to be in the bottom two and the judges would vote her out.

It will be a bit unfair if someone else goes and then Kate withdraws.

Can anyone remember what they did the week Jimmy Tarbuck withdrew, did they have a week week with no one voted off?

They just carried on and someone got voted off diamond1

It meant there was a two person final instead of three.

I'm giving my Anton votes to Vincent and Stephanie tonight. Kate should have dropped out to give Anton a chance with a new partner (although that would have meant she would have lost out on all that press). I love the way Stephanie is with Vincent. The way Vincent treats her has made me warm to him this year. They are the most entertaining.

Thanks fig roll, well I hope she's voted out tonight then so that we get a 3 person final this time then.

I think that Kate must be getting some bad advice from the doctors or she is being a bit pig headed and selfish by carrying on, knowing that she won't be able to compete every week.

The doctors must have told her that she wouldn't be able to last more than a week, so as soon as she had the injury the fairest thing for her to do would have been to withdraw and let Anton compete with a new partner (assuming that they had reserves).
