I think I might have been hypothetising, but then again who knows.

It doesn't really matter.
Now once OL can predict the lottery numbers then I will be interested but until then I'll keep my money in my pocket. I hope he remembers who his friends are. :lol: :thumbup: :wave:

Whatever your hypothesis it was without foundation as my prediction was posted before the spoiler release time.

Anyhow’s, no point in stringing this out any further…keep dancing! :wave:

This may come as a surprise but having consulted the tea leaves the bottom two this week will be Masie and JJ :)
:wave: You got Maisie right Keefy but it wasn't JJ in the dance off. 50% isn't bad but I would try some different tea leaves.

A good night although I think the judges were over generous with their scores. Craig must be on valium.

Bill was good but a little shakey in places tonight I thought.

Jamie was the best of the bunch tonight/last night with his street dance. Bit of a dark horse.

Caroline and Clara for the dance off with Caroline going out for me, or should do.

Surprised that Motsie calls the Argentine Tango ‘The Tango Argintino’ :eh:

Shirley has obviously got a tongue stud going by the way she pronounces her shevern and shix scores which annoys me, and still likes advertising herself too much for me.

Anton needs to toughen up and stop being Mr nice guy and give more constructive advise.


Keeeeeeep dancing :D

Anton was always going to be the nice guy.

Thought Ranvir did well, Caroline is very annoying.
Will be interesting to see who goes this week.

In the absence of OL's tea leaves I will share my thoughts
I would put Clara and Carolyn in the dance offs; I don't know what happened to Clara this week. From being quite outstanding last week she was very disappointing this. As for Caroline I have never been impressed with her as a dancer. She seems to me to cover her dancing by some pretty dramatic and annoying acting skills but this week she was just annoying and not amusing at all. Her facial expressions were grotesque. If they were meant to be alluring they certainly put me off!!!
Bill is pretty good although not as good as the judges make out, JJ will go eventually but my money goes on Ranvir who is much better than she thinks she is. I would also expect to see Hrvy to progress and probably Maisie who, like many 19 year olds is full of herself but has done pretty well so far.

My vast dancing expertise and experience is free to all members of this forum. :lol:

It seems to me the judges are going out of their way to be nice and the marking is all over everywhere.

I would be more inclined to go with Caroline & Maisie in the dance off with Caroline going. It appears that Maisie may not have a lot of public support.

In no particular order Caroline, JJ and Clara to go in the next three weeks.

Whilst Hrvy is good he does not seem to have improved as much as some of the others since the start.

Ranvir, Bill and another for the final. I suspect Bill has a lot of public support

What the hell were Tess and Claudia wearing last night. Rocking horses have got more dress sense. Perhaps Claudia was starring in a puss in boots panto straight after the show.

I thought that Claudia had just got out of bed and did not have time to change out of her onesie :crazy:

At least Shirley had dumped the nightie she was wearing last week! I think as Bruno can't be bothered to turn up for work he should get his cards and give the job to Anton permanently.

Well Clara stayed in.....just, which surprised me. I was convinced she would be in the dance off, although I think she’ll be gone next week unless she improves.

At least Caroline’s up the road. It was an easy choice between her and Maisie.

Gawed knows what Tess and Claud were wearing again. They looked like throw backs from the 60’s and Aladdin.

Oh well, Anton’s reign of judging didn’t last long with Motsi returning next week.


The peasants are revolting :D

Looks as if my tealeaves are working - and no that was not from any spoiler as there was nothing about the result on the spoiler when I posted - in fact the prediction was somewhat different.

Some still think that this is a dancing contest!
