I vote for them as Anton is superb and Kate the most ordinary just like Joe Public,fair enough she may not be supposed to be in the final but

Its worth her being in a few weeks more surely,its entertainment not a pure talent show and strictly wouldnt be strictly without Anton

No it isn't. No matter how nice Anton is, no matter how good a dancer he is and no matter how big a personality he is in his own right, this show is about the celebrity dancing, improving and impressing. Kate, even if she is trying (which I am unsure she is) is not improving, is getting worse, and with her gurning his turning herself into a national joke.

I have nothing especially against Kate though she's beginning to bug me, but at this point, her staying in means a possibility of a decent dancer going out. So... no can do - I'll be voting for the good dancers.

As for it not being SCD without Anton... we've managed OK in the past when he's gone out relatively early! It doesn't mean you'll not see him again (he's one of those who's invited back all the time even after he's out). You you may even get to see more of Anton doing what he is best at, as it will give him and Erin more time to work on dances for the pro demo dances.

you just fancy Anton. That not a reason to keep someone in. I will vote the best dancer which I can stake my life on now, won't be Kate.

My point is Anton is good and he is half the team.Im allowed to vote for him surely.Also there are two couples as bad as kATE

You can vote for who you like, but similarly others are allowed to think that you're crazy to do so.

Anton is half the team, but it's Kate who's the one who's supposed to be improving.

And I don't think there are any coupleswho are as bad as Kate... even Kenny is improving.

Are you sure Anton really enjoys the public humiliation they get each week!?

That's as may be, but at least they give the impression of trying!

I'm pretty sure Average Joe Public could string together a few steps after 200+ hours training by a profession by now...

...being the showman he is, I'll bet he doesn't mind the publicity and exposure tho'.......

Maybe...but most of them wouldn't dance it live in front of audiences to be beamed to millions at home with a critique by 4 judges at the end of it

I think Anton is enough of a showman he'll make the most of whatever comes his way - publicity on the dancefloor or (should they get knocked out) going on ITT and dancing pro dances.

For the love of god vote on the dancing! or it will be the cr**est SCD ever! and possibly the end of an amazing show!

Oh please. Kate is more used to live TV than any other contestant, so now we're meant to praise her for something she's full-time employed for? Yeah, the judges aren't there at GMTV, but the judges (and dancing live) are something EVERY contestant has to deal with. How is it different for Kate? Because she gets slated? Well, so does Kenny. And he goes back into the practice room and actually tries.

Kate and Anton are clearly already the most popular contestants in the eyes of the voting public.

Some may not like that - but its pretty undeniable.

So is 'care in the community' but that's a pretty dreadful idea too.

How do you figure that? We don't know if they come top of the public vote every week just that they don't end up in the bottom two. I ask that as a genuine question, I know some people on here can make a pretty good guess at a couples overall position but its beyond me.

Edited to add: Perhaps this is a question for the Stats thread?

I'd rather vote ten times for each of the remaining couples than vote for Kate.

Excellent remark and opinion and I fear very accurate - if people don't start voting for the dancing they are categorically ruining one of the best shows in years and it will all come to a sorry end.

...an object lesson for charity fundraisers everywhere.... worst is sometimes best when it comes to making money.

Personally I'd vote either for the best dancer or the most improved and Kate doesn't fit either category.

Kenny is no great dancer but he is really trying hard, especially as he finds the rhythm so difficult. He has definately improved and is clearly giving it his all, which is much much more than can be said for Kate.

If you want to champion an underdog then vote for Kenny, but the Kate joke has run for long enough.

I'd rather not, if it's all the same to you.

She may be alright personally, but her dancing is rubbish and she shouldn't be rewarded for it.

If you like her, vote for her. But don't expect people who don't like her to vote for her - that's not the point of the public vote. Equally, if you don't like her, don't expect people who do not to vote for her because it'll ruin the show - it obviously won't for the people who like her...

For the record, I don't like her dancing, but as long as people are voting for her, it's fair enough that she's still there.

I don't know why Kate is so desperate to stay in. Every time I see her on TV she's begging for votes.

The ploy is obviously working though......

She wanted to do better than Fiona? Which she already has, time to go!
