Apparently the word is the peasants are revolting over Craig's low scoring, which I have to agree with. I bet some would love to shove his 10 paddle where the sun don't shine.

As for Bruno and singing.... :lol: . Stick to your judging Bruno.

My prediction is Saffron and Alex in the dance off. I did think about listing Emma there but I think the public will keep her in for a while longer because of Anton.

I have only watched the last three weeks this year,I used to really love strictly. What is really annoying me is Oti and Karen shrieking and yelling when they get good scores,hoping for more votes.
I now know why I am not watching as much as I used to.
Its had its day.

Same here Lindsey.
We record it and cut out all the pfaff.
Just fast forward to the dancing.
Same with the result show.

The format is very dated now.

:lol: :lol: :lol: We all pretend we don't know so it doesn't spoil it for those who watch it 'Live' !!!
Now I wonder who will go out this week? It's a nonsense really on behalf of the BBC pretending that it's not all recorded on Saturday night.

No, I can't stand that screeching banshi Karen either. And going by her weird hair style has she got a part in a possible 'Last of the Mohecans 2'.

Bang goes my tip for the final 3 after Saffron was eliminated. I honestly don't think either of the 2 ladies left are final material, but then again neither is Chris, but two of the remaining 5 have to go.
So my new prediction for the final is Kelvin, Karim and Alex, but only because I think Alex is lovely.

I did wonder if Emma would go but I think maybe it's Anton the people are voting for because of all the terrible dancers he's had to cope with as partners previously. I was surprised that Karim was in the bottom two - I thought he was quite popular but what do I know? I'd never heard of him previously, but then I'd never heard of most of the 'Celebrities' before either.

My vote goes to Amy. She is quite a stunner. I wonder if it will be Kelvin, Karim and possibly Emma, largely because of Anton but she does come across as a very graceful dancer. It all depends what she is like in the Latin sections. Probably between Emma and Alex for that third place.

Watched the results last night as we were out. Bit of a shocker seeing Karim in the dance off, but there was no competition as to who was getting the taxi for one home. I think Geordie boy is a bit of a dark horse.

Steady up Towny! We are agreeing about something! You might make a Remainer yet. LOL. We think Alex is what the show is about. A non dancer, who is improving all the time, and has an infectious smile.

She definitely has a winning personality. However I will need a hell of a lot more goodies from Jeremy, before I ever contemplate going over to the dark side.

Not Jeremy for me either. From reading some of the comments posted on the 'Strictly' fb page, there are some keyboard warriors in that arena who put us lot in the shade for vehemence. :crazy:

Blame Stephen.... in our case it's Alex we're raving about, but I must admit Amy is a lovely girl too. Only went to 'Uddersfield once, you cant judge the town on one visit.

It's probably gone downhill quite a bit since you were there Frank, it's taken a while but tyeing Huddersfield to the heavy woollen Towns of Dewsbury and Batley in the stupid metro council of Kirklees now under Labour control , seems to have driven the heart of the old Town of Huddersfield.
