Place your bets please Week 11....which couple will go next..
2 of 2
Christine and Lisa.... probably Christine out.
Lisa and any of the others.... Lisa is the come-back Queen. I wouldn't necessarily write her off. It really will depend on how the others' dances go and how much she brings to the dance off.
If neither Christine nor Lisa is in the dance off, (unlikely) then who knows what will happen, except that one of the three best dancers will go out.

If the evenings dances follow the training then it should be Christine, however if not I can see either Austin or Tom looking vulnerable depending on who they have in a dance off.
I think we could be in for a shock this week, my gut instinct tells me the dance off could be between Rachel and Austin.
With possibly Austin going out.

I think Brendan and Lisa will go. 
They have been in the dance off in the past two weeks. If Christine is in the bottom two she will definitely go BUT my gut instinct tells me she won't be:
a) because of the Northern Ireland vote; and
b) Matthew Cutler is the most popular professinal dancer and has a huge fan base.
I think the dance off will be between Lisa and Brenda and Erin and Austen.

If Christine is in the bottom two then I think she will be voted off by the judges, they seem far less supportive of her. People mention the Northern Ireland vote - is this really significant (only 1.8m or so)? Around 5.5m people watch Holby; around 5m watch the One Show; and about 10m of us watch SCD.
The judges seem to favour Lisa and would probably pick her in the bottom two over most. That said she looks very good in training and could top the judge's votes tonight.
Rachel and Lisa seem to have less public support but are favoured by the judges.
As there is no Children in Need motive I think the judge's order is important as it mobilises a save my favourite vote for the bottom dancers and complacency in the upper levels.
If, after the public vote the bottom two are Tom and Austin then it's probably goodbye Tom (unless Arlene convinces the judges about Austin's little arms). Hope that Camilla stays in, though.

I love Christine and Matt, and I don't really want to lose them. However, I have the felling that they might go this week.

Hello, Shutts hun, how ya doing?
Although I'm going right off you after that statement! 
I think..
that if rachel is not at the top of the LB-
or maybe even second..
She will be in the dance off i think..
and if Tom finshes 3rd, 4th or 5th aswell..
He might be joining her..
and the same goes for lisa..
then lisa would go if she v rachel or tom, and rachel would go if its her v tom
For me it all depends on how well (and overmarked) the judges mark RACHEL. For me thats who decides who in the DO and the same apllies to TOM.
I Have a funny feeling tonight it may be lisas time to go, but then again it depends where she ends up on the LB..
who knows.
Hoping that Christine or Austin
Does not go..
i love these two and would love to see these 2 in the final

think its going to be a real shocker this week if Christine is saved by the public vote. All the other couples are amazing - would make for a really exciting quarter final if Christine went this week. Sadly she really was totally outdanced by the others. I hope Rachel and Vincent, Tom and Camilla stay for sure but I think they're all great, so will be a bit sad whatever happens! I would really really hate to be one of the judges if its two of the good ones in the dance off.
TBF, if anyone here thinks Austin will be in the dance off after a performance that would have had a welter of first time uncommitteds padding to the phone than clearly I know sod all about the public taste and I should retire from showbiz myself.
I am sure Christine will go. Much as I like her, the time has come.
Austin will get the sympathy vote for the latest 40 dance to not score 40.
Tom and Rachel don't inspire me but they are due a place in next weeks competition.
Lisa was, for the first time, my fave tonight.

If Christine really has got this big support, then I think Tom will go - he will be bottom with Rachel, and judges fave is never going to be voted out....
also, if it is Tom v Rachel, we will no doubt have to go through lots of head shaking and hand wringing by the judges, and comments about these two dancers shouldnt be here etc etc etc.....

I think it'll be Rachel and Tom or Rachel and Christine, depending on how well Christine's vote holds up. If it's Rachel and Tom it will be close.

Unfortunately you're right about public taste and Austin's dance was a crowd pleaser. As a dance it wasn't as good as the judges' marks suggest. But 'No' he won't be in the dance off.

It's an entertainment show as well as a dance comp. That's what wins it, being able to combine both. Austin proved the other in the f/t.
It was straight up authentic Paso for me. It was a bullfight. I wasn't seeing any shaping or much of anything in Rachel's.
If this was one "off" week after a run of great performances, I'd understand Christine's fans voting for her but it's pretty obvious now that there's a significant gap between her and the others. In that past when this has happened in this 2 dance stage the public support often disappears (like Kenny last year) so I think she'll be going tonight.
I've never seen Matthew look as unhappy as he did after the tango scores which is understandable as it reflects on him as a pro, so why would anyone want her to get to next week to be told her rumba was the worst the show had ever seen? I won't be surprised if the judges extend their criticism to Matthew next week, if she survives.
I think she'll be going tonight, with Rachel joining her in the dance off. Her salsa won't stand a chance against Rachel's waltz so they can throw themselves into the dance as it'll be their last one.
Matthew's done a great job with her and she should be proud she's finished ahead of 11 others, but it'd be a crying shame if any of the other 4 left before her.
