Prediction for next week, Susan will still be there due to Kevin's massive popularity, similarly Ruth, should survive with Anton's help, so next weeks dance off possibles, Mollie again, she is not really likeable, Davood, if he gets a dance he does not like, Jonnie is also a possible if he starts losing the sympathy vote. The others are just too good, and the winner will need to beat Debbie or she will romp it.

No offence intended Jan, but I can never understand why anyone would want to know the results before watching the show. If they are not interested in the show why bother finding out the results in advance :crazy:
Because it means that you can fast forward through the painful, drawn out announcing who is through to next week and who is in the dance off.
But please can I appeal to those who do look at the spoiler not to even hint at it on this thread? Good to see speculation and comment here but some of us do enjoy watching both the Saturday and Sunday shows as broadcast without knowing the answer. Pretty please?
We all know that the Sunday night results are recorded after the live show on Saturday. Why do they make such a show of saying, on Sunday night results, 'last night'. It's NOT!!!

I don't tend to watch the results show as I prefer to watch other things and it's so drawn out. I just look at the strictly spoiler on Sunday morning but wouldn't dream of spoiling it for others.
I think this week Simon Rimmer was the right choice.
For some of the others it's still a popularity contest with the public.
Still impressed with Debbie McGee.

I agree David, and I do the same with itv programs I record to skip the adverts. But I personally wouldn't even think of looking at a spoiler for a show that I had no interest in. But, each to they're own.

Well that was a turn up. Never thought in a million years Molly would be in the dance off.

They're also recording the Christmas show on 27th November. But I don't care when it's recorded. I just like watching it. And when I watch the results show on Sunday the live show was "last night". I don't get why the concern about it being recorded. The majority of tv shows are.

Got my name down for tickets for the Christmas show Merv. But like all the other dates I've applied for over the years for Strictly I won't hold my breath for getting any.

Wonder who's for the chop this week. I think Susan Calman and Ruth Langford are looking risky. But we all know how fickle the voting public are.

My girl Debbie has done it again.
A brilliant dance, all the panel though it was exceptional.
A joy to watch.

You clearly have not taken any nòtice of my last post, I suggest you rethink your predictions.

Mrs S and I both thought she made a slip up at one point. Perhaps the judges were turning a blind eye after Craig's antics.

A travesty that Aston went out when there were two or three less able than him. But there you go.

That's what happens when you allow uneducated thickies to vote you get a weird result, just like Brexit, Trump and almost Corbyn. :sarcasm: :lol:

Never fear. The comedy contestants won't be in the final few as they never are. And nor would Aston have been. Though it's entirely possible he'll be the next Prime Minister! Unless of course he's ever put his hand on someone's knee.
