Quizmike, did you see that they published the detailed results of the weekly X-Factor voting (on the X Factor site). I suspect it was done to highlight the SCD voting catastrophe.”

Is that Fatima Whitbread? That was a great javelin win all those years ago!

I think they publish the votes every year after the series? What is amazing about them is Eggnog - top in 6 of the weeks: go figure???

Hi Fatima,

Yep and for I'm a Celeb as well. My thread about the voting figures is here...

Hi Raspberry,

You are right. The records on page one are after Week 12. Week 13 records are updated in post 28 on this thread (including Lisa's new Quickstep record)

Hi HfL

This is the first time that ITV have published the figures for anything.

I've yet to watch Rachel's - to be honest I haven't been that bothered about catching up with the show's I've missed - but I have to disagree that Zoe hid her mistakes well.

I can't speak for footwork, but in the first rendition of their tango, Ian and Zoe had huge issues with gapping which were improved but not eliminated when they danced it in the final (I just watched it again on youtube, and it was good, it was dramatic, but in this dance which has a tighter, closer hold than the other ballroom dances, there were still several instances of a considerable gap present between their bodies... sometimes it was minimal, on a couple of occasions it was unmistakable and quite big). Zoe also had a tendency (which we saw in Lisa's paso doble this series) to stick her neck out and forward which again was improved but not solved in the final.

You may not have noticed, you may have been distracted by the drama of the dance, but there were mistakes in there that even a relative novice like me could see.

That said, I thought their tango was great and incredibly dramatic and all, and well done Ian for such striking and memorable choreography.
