These results will be added to the leader board and the couple with the lowest overall score will leave the competition.
If the judges' score doesn't count why bother to score? They don't score in the show dance, just comment. I'm afraid the judges still have their say on the final. Basically the person who has got 5 point from last week means that they are more popular than the other girl and so is likely to go through and win. The good thing is there's other possibilities too, unlike last week, which is impossible for Tom to escape the dance off.”

What we need is clairification before the final starts as to how many sets of votes we are getting
What we do know
dec13th 3-3-1
dec13th 1-2-3 (likely)
(As im sure if Tom didnt win the public vote they wouldnt have come up with this senerio)
If the judges vote
dec20th 1-3-2 (judges possible) meaning 5-8-6 before public vote
or
and whoever has 8 will be guarantted a position in the final
Now if the phone lines are opened before the judges scores are calculated you will be voting to save someone who does not need saved
Also as thier votes are not added on the final showdance as this starts from scratch then its a vote that is meaningless
In other words if the leader at the start gets the top marks from the judges the games up again and phone lines are not needed for them
