Ooh Keefy don't think tonight's performance is going to help your cruise fund - my money would be on Abby
Patrick didn't perform well tonight - squeak squeak

Re: For all you Strictly Fans ....
The results show is going to be interesting. I predict Sophie and Patrick in the dance off and Sophie to go out because I get the impression that Craig doesn't like Brendan DAAAAAHling.

Re: For all you Strictly Fans ....
Time to get strictly serious ...so judging on tonight’s performances Natalie looks home for all money, however there’s still the final hurdle to get over and I’m not so sure she will be judged on natural ability so this could see Abby finishing with a wet sail and nipping it on the post.
As for the also rans Sophie looked like she has had a few training problems and will need to make great strides if she is going to make any show in the final.
A race of two halves for Patrick, absolutely stunning performance in the first half of the race but faded badly in the final furlong...Absolutely deserves another chance...Vote Patrick!
Unfortunately for Susanna she looked like a selling platter just coming into her winter coat...”they never look good at this time of the year” hence the reason she ran so badly. So Susanna, it’s thank you, thank you, thank you and goodbye.
Regards
OL
Janis...I can’t tell you how gutted I’m feeling at the moment...my only hope is the “Invigilator” in the 9.20 at Wolverhampton

Well the invigilator got beat half a length into fourth place having got stopped in the final furlong so if that is the way my luck is going it will be bread and dripping sandwiches for the foreseeable future... unless of course you.....
Vote Patrick..... Pretty please

Patrick and Susanna for the dance off. And as much as I like Brucie, it's time the old duffer handed in his performance licence. He just can't hack it any more.

Be prepared for a shock tonight.
The word on the street is that Susanna is way ahead of the others with the public vote.

Sorry but if I did there would be complaints from those who want to watch the programme later - but what I will say is that one of the couples in the dance off will be a surprise (to some)Frank Manning wrote:Come on David, disclose all.

Re: For all you Strictly Fans ....
For my money it's Natalie or Abbey to win by a country mile. Unfortunately the public vote doesn't always reflect the best dancer.
Didn't Aliona look lovely!!!

I wondered if you had insider information when Susanna didn't leave last week. I was sure until just now that Patrick would be going tonight.david63 wrote:Be prepared for a shock tonight.

I thought Sophie was excellent last night. Natalie is still my favourite and I'm worried now it will be her to leave.

Re: For all you Strictly Fans ....
Assuming the final will be decided on the public vote alone, and assuming Susanna has managed to avoid "tonights" dance off, then she is, IMO, a cast iron cert to win. The bookies agree and have had her as favourite for weeks.

Re: For all you Strictly Fans ....
I used to like Susanna but her effusive fawning to the cameras and the judges, and BBC bias towards her has put me right off. I think Abbey is just delightful and so elegant and graceful whatever she does.
My mother and her next door neighbour used to vote for all and sundry thinking phone calls were free at the weekend (same contract). However this all stopped when she got a big phone bill and I pointed out the list of premium numbers she had been ringing!!! Mothers!!!

Agree. I am really hoping Sophie doesn't go tonight. She is so nice and seems consistently undermarked which I feel is a reflection of the Judges antipathy (Craig especially) towards Brendan. I was sure her paso doble was much better than Patrick.

I also agree, Sophie is really good but Brendan should learn to keep his mouth shut ! He is ruining any chances she has. Abbie is very good too, and has come from nothing which is always more impressive than the ones who've had some dance training.

Re: For all you Strictly Fans ....
Patrick and Susanna for the dance off. However the cryptic post by David obviously puts some doubt on that.
Abby & Sophie are my favourites now. Both Sophie's dances were exquisite, Brendan did a beautiful job, but the judges don't seem to like Sophie or is it Brendan they don't like
Abby looks so graceful, and has the best "armography" of all the celebs.
In fact my friends and I did not agree with any of the judges lost night, we went out to dinner with friends and returned to their house to watch the recording of SCD!! Pretty sad eh
Thank you David for not letting any cats out of bags, I like to see the programme.

I watched it last night, first time I've seen a whole programme this season, I prefer it when it's just down to the better ones. Quite enjoyed it, no need for the show tonight after checking the results online last night. Won't say who goes, just annoyed it wasn't the one I wanted it to be !.
