Re: For all you Strictly Fans ....
Not much to say really……. the best four are in the final…….hope Abby or Sophie as I have already said. I have to admit Natalie's A-Tango was spectacularly good.

Re: For all you Strictly Fans ....
I take it all back “David” Strictly Come Dancing has become exactly what you said it was, which is a dance competition based on personalities. How can anyone in their right minds think Natalie deserved to be in the dance off?
As for Patrick...he was the best male dancer in the competition and he gave me a bl**dy good run for my money...well done that man!
As for Darknightie...Bollocks!!
As for the hordes of misguided BBC breakfast voters...you should all be ashamed of yourselves.
As for me...food parcels can be sent via the normal channels...thank you and good night.
Regards
OL

I was going to say that I’ve missed your participation on the forum this past few weeks but for some reason I don't think I'll bother

I'm sorry Patrick has gone he was so nice. I cannot believe Natalie was in the dance off!!!!!!!!!! If Susanna wins this I'm going to be so cross!!!!!!

Has Susanna not been the best ?. It doesn't suprise me that it's personality over ability - I lost interest years ago when they fixed it for Tom Chambers to go through to the final and win when it should probably have been Lisa Snowdon. I like to see who's in at the beginning and then I see who's left at the end, the middle bit just goes on too long !.

No Susanna is definitely not the best. Well that's my opinion.

Re: For all you Strictly Fans ....
You're probably right, but if you consider that for her to have never been in a dance off despite being in the bottom 2 so many times, then she must be winning the public vote every week If that continues she will win, which is why all the bookies make her the favourite.emjay45 wrote:No Susanna is definitely not the best.

It will be a travesty if Susanna wins.
Perhaps we should get Onelife to put a few pounds on her ............... That seems to do the trick.

I agree Foxy Susanna gets on my nerves - the expressions on her face when she's dancing and the endless "thank you's" when she gets voted back onoldbluefox wrote:It will be a travesty if Susanna wins.

But it's happened before remember the lovely Ola's partner Chris Hollins - no way was he the best dancer but the public liked him so as you say may be Keefy ought to put a bet on

Re: For all you Strictly Fans ....
My wife can't stand Susanna Reid, for the reasons mentioned above. How she went through was as much a surprise to her I think as it was to us.
The judges don't really need to be there as the public run the show at the end of the day.
Natalie and Abbey to fight it out in the final final.
My money is on Natalie lifting the trophy.

Re: For all you Strictly Fans ....
BIG mistake, anyone who thinks Strictly is a dance competition. It's always been a popularity contest. That's why Natalie was in the dance off. She's a fabulous dancer and deserves to win. But she played a baddie on Corra and half of the dimbo viewers can't tell soap from reality. Plus many have been hacked off before she has dance experience.
As a popularity contest Susanna has to be favourite. Despite some on here not liking her she has a big fan base through Brek TV.
Many like her because she has a brain too, not being the airhead that many celebrities are.
If the prize was for improvement Susanna would be also a rightful winner, having come from a shaky start to doing pretty well now.

Re: For all you Strictly Fans ....
You are right about Susanna being the most improved, and improve she has, every week. However she is bit "over the top" all the time, and therefore irritating! (she may have a brain for her day job, but in SCD she seems to be pretty ditsy)
Abby should win, IMO, with Sophie a close second. If it was a "Dance Competition", then Natalie would win as she is, consistently, the best dancer.
Anyway, next weekend, all will be revealed.

Re: For all you Strictly Fans ....
Sophie has done a couple of good dances at best and has the personality of a cardboard box
Abby and Natalie have been superb and both deserve to win
Suzanna will win coz she is better known and more popular
it might help if it were indeed a dance contest, where the judges had the final say, rather than a popularity contest/Money spinner for the Beeb
cynic.....who me?

It amazes me that the telecomms technology can't stop accepting calls - alledgedly - when the voting closes ("you may still be charged but your vote won't be counted") They have no problem when the voting opens.Dark Knight wrote:

I think they should charge double for anyone who votes after the clearly signposted line closing time. Anyone that dim should be proud to subsidise my viewing!
