GENERAL MOBILISATION - Penny in danger

Tomorrow's salsa celebs:

Alesha always stays in.

Kate appears to be practising ok'ish, with a large contingent of hardcore supporters expected to stay loyal.

Letitia has confidence, momentum and a growing band of supporters, and is unlikely to falter.

John is back to his metier of rhythmic dance out of hold. If he did not get evicted on his worst dance of foxtrot, he is not going to be turfed out by judges on his salsa, regardless of falling to the bottom two or not.

Tomorrow's Viennese Waltzers:

Kelly will do well, I suspect very well.

Matt and Gethin will be voted back in by two armies of swooning girls.

Kenny is dancing to a traditional Scottish tune which will appeal to Scots as much if not more than his kilt last week. He could be lifted shoulder-high by Scottish hordes, high above the bottom two.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

That only leaves Penny, doing the salsa.

Oh dear, SOMEBODY has to go out! My understanding is that the night of her jive she was third bottom, then in the samba the following week she was in the bottom two with Gabby despite scoring a huge 8-7-9-8 with the judges (4th top)!

Sweet and mild-mannered Penny appears to lead no army of diehard supporters. Tomorrow once again Penny attempts a vibrant latin dance where her gangly arms and lazy legs will not show to advantage. If she finishes in the bottom two her technical incompatibility with salsa could lead to a shock exit.

If you like Penny, tomorrow is the night to vote. Or it could be au revoir.

Judging what I saw yesterday on ITT Kelly was struggling with the VW

It would be interesting to see who the judges prefer out of Penny and Kelly

Well I wouldn't want to wish active bad luck on anyone, but my feeling is that Kelly might be heading for a fall this week

If not a fall, then a bit of a pegging down maybe?

There's something about Penny I really like - she seems very natural and fun and I love the partnership - whatever dance they do and regardless of how successful it is - they always look fab together.

I like Penny a lot, but I don't vote for her. Similarly I loved Gabby but didn't vote for her...she may well suffer unless she wows the judges.

Penny is so laid-back and conciliatory.
With her you always got the feeling everything is alright, all the family are happy.

No crisis, no mobilisation, that's the problem.
I like Penny, so I have rung the alarm for her.

THIS IS A THREE-LINE WHIP

Every supporter votes tomorrow, every vote counts!
Every Essex girl to stand up and be counted.
And every 6-foot girl everywhere.

(drumroll)

Please vote, and vote again.

Save your money. By your own argument, Alesha and Matt are safe by votes and Kelly will do a great dance. No way on earth would the judges let Penny go over anyone else in the competition. I wish they would, I think she's really overrated, but they won't. What are you worried about?

I like Penny but i cant see her getting the finale.
I actually think Letitia, Kelly and Alesha are all more popular then her.
Dont think she'l be voted out yet but wont be suprised if she is in the bottom 2 again soon.

It does not help Penny that charming gentleman Ian on TV is even more laid-back than Penny.

Compare Ian to Anton who went ballistic against the judges' low marks, defending Kate at every turn like his life depended on it. Anton championing Kate made a big impression on viewers.

Stephanie was, and will always be my all time favourite. I may have jinxed her, darlings! Alesha and Penny are my next favourites. Now, if Alesha goes out within the next few weeks, I think we'll ALL storm the BBC - can't see it happening of course. So, that leaves our lovely Penny!

Please vote for Penny, not just for her, but for Stephanie Beacham, who loves Penny, and for me. If Penny goes out, I can never watch the show again, or support anyone - as I will be proved as a Jinx.

Penny WILL do well tomorrow, and let's all make sure we don't go back to 'wrong' voting

Hmm... I just think she looks really awkward when she dances, so I wouldn't be surprised if she's bottom two (her Salsa, despite what Arlene said, did not look brilliant to me...). There's no way in Hell the judges'll get rid of her though, they love her.

Also, just a correction to your opening post - I'm a swooning boy who'll be voting for Gethin...

Good for you, mate. Do you fancy Gethin, or do you admire his dancing - or both?

Even sheep vote for Gethin.

He's really impressed me with the improvement in his dancing and general attitude towards the competition. Of course, his looks aren't harming my view of him, but it really is primarily the dancing.

Well, he's certainly easy on the eye, seems a really genuine natural chap, and his attitude has been excellent. Yes, he's improving! I like it when he speaks with his natural accent, and love it when he speaks Welsh. Better than Italian when he talks!

He's not my favourite, but is my third/fourth favourite. Glad you're rooting for him though - He's lovely

Gethin plays two classical music instruments, one to Grade 8 standard. That's why he was so disappointed with himself when he got ahead of the rhythm, when as Len pointed out he was carried away with all the hubbub of the evening.

He appears to tackle his dances like Blue Peter arts and crafts, rather than abandoning himself to the romance of terpsichore.
