6th- Jodie. Loved her!
5th- Lisa. Not popular with public, relies on judges!
4th- Rachel. I wish people would appreciate her as a great dancer and lovely person.
3rd- Christine. The shock of the series, clearly has public support.
2nd- Austin. I think he has peaked too early.
1st- Tom. While people on here aren't fans, he is very popular outside.

What do you all think?

Id go along with that

5th Lisa
4th Tom
3rd Rachel
Not sure who will then win out of austin and christine.

This is a guess not what i want. I dont actually know who i want to win.

6th: Jodie
5th: Lisa (or Christine)
4th: Christine (or Lisa)
3rd: Austin (or Tom)
2nd: Rachel - she'll never be voted off by the judges
1st: Tom (or Austin)

You took the words out of my mouth - I'd put money on this being the result.

I think she survived this week due to being at the bottom of the leader board. Anyone who was there was always going to get a big "anti-judge" vote after JS-gate. Well that's me theory, obviously she's got the MC fans too.

I think Rachel will be in the final with Tom. Austin will be knocked out in a dance off by one of these two (probably Rachel). Tom will go onto win.

6th Jodie - This girl was amazing. I don't really care about the rest of it now but I'll predict anyway
5th - Christine - Interchangable with Lisa
4th - Lisa - interchangable with Christine
3rd - Tom - I love him as a dancer and personality wise but he'll be pipped by...
2nd - Lisa - This girl can do no wrong now although Jodie should be here in my eyes.
1st - Austin - It's a full gone conclusion now isn't it?

The judges have had Austin as winner almost from week 1 so I'm giving what I think the finishing order should be not what I think it will be.

I Rachel & Vincent
2 Tom & Camilla
3. Lisa & Brendan
4. Austin & Erin
5, Christine & Matthew
6. Jodie & Ian

Wow, pretty much the order I was going to say.

Lisa is losing momentum more and more.
Rachel is the pretty girl who was always going to do well but she has no personality and won't pull in the votes when it matters.
And I've always suspected that, although Austin may have been ahead of him most of the time, when it matters I think Tom will just pip him to the post. He's got that excitement in his dances that only Christine has aswell, but she's not as strong of a dancer.

They start 2 dances a night from next saturday, so the remaining 5 have these dances left, plus whatever dance is being added as a result of the extra week:

Lisa: waltz, chacha, foxtrot, jive, AT
Christine : tango, salsa, VW, rumba, AT
Austin: AS, Salsa, foxtrot, paso, AT
Rachel: waltz, chacha, tango, paso, AT
Tom: Foxtrot, rumba, waltz, samba, AT

Could be tricky for some competitors now with the dances that they have left - lisa & jive, christine & salsa, rumba, austin & salsa, rachel & none! (but may struggle with support anyway), tom & rumba, samba

makes it interesting and leaves it open

My Guess

6th = Jodie
5th = Lisa
4th = Tom
3rd = Christine
2nd = Rachel
1st = Austin

I do think they now want a Rachel vs Austin final

(1) Tom and Camilla
(2) Rachel and Vincent
(3) Austin and Erin
(4) Christine and Matthew
(5) Lisa and Brendan
(6) Jodie and Ian

Yep, this is how I think it should be as well. Although I wouldn't mind if Rachel and Tom's positions were swapped either.

If there is any truth in the vote breakdown in The People, I think this is the way it will go. I'm don't like Tom but I'm beginning to think that he is actually better than Austin in that he can do both ballroom and latin. Austin's latin (Jive aside) is not as good as Tom's.

At this stage I would like Rachel to win but there's no way she's going to get the public vote.

My favourites are Rachel and Tom and so a final involving these two would be ideal.

To this end, I think Tom should get the Rumba out of the way next week. And make sure he saves a ballroom for the semis.

If Rachel reaches the semis, I'm hoping Vincent decides to hold the Waltz back until then. I reckon a Waltz and the Argentine Tango could be two very high scoring dances for this partnership.
