Did any of you watch the christmas special?

How over marked was Elaine Paige darlink ? Mid her dance wasnt bad but not a 40 and poor Rochelle from the saturdays......she was gutted and rightly so what a mash up must of been her worst nightmare lovely to see Flavia again. :-D

LOL at AC. :-D

What did you think of the Christmas Show? It was nice to see Flavia and Ian dancing and the contestants Rupert and Elaine were good, but otherwise it seemed a bit weak to me. :-S

Well, I had a chuckle at the start of the final. Did you see when Brucie and Tess came on and she lifted her leg as she does every week for him to grab? She fumbled around her thigh with her hand to feel if the split in the side of her dress was showing her knickers!! :-) LOL.

Yes it was a great final and the dances were brilliant. Sophie's mum was a bit too much and I thought Abbey had a lovely childlike quality in her excitement and wide eyes!!

Looking forward to the Christmas Day show and to MTG doing another thread next year! :-) :-)

Merry Christmas to you all and .......keep dancing!!

(especially AnnC if she wants to partner Aliaz ;-) ;-))

Well Ive put my dancing shoes in tissue for another year. The ballgown has been put in mothballs, and the fishnets are hanging on the line.

Thank you all for participating on the thread, I think we all agreed that the best person won in the end.

Maybe Patrick should not have gone last week, but hey-ho. At least the newsreader did not win.

The bookies must be pig sick, they slashed the odds for Susannah, but I think the others remained the same.

All over for another year, except for the Christmas Special.

So girls.......................................keep dancing!

:-) :-) :-)

I'll offer myself up for Aliaz :-D :-D :-D :-D

A selfless sacrifice I realise, but I'm willing to do it or the sake of the show

Did anyone else hear Bruce call Abbey Sophie.........Tess said its Abbey .......

I was jumping about they annouced the winners.....and Itsmytelly said that means poor Aliaz will get a right donkey next year the Ann Wiccicomb or Vanessa Feltz of the series :-D

Loved it all.

Thought that Susanna should have gone out first.

Sophie in 3rd place
Natelie 2nd place
Abbey First


One of my wishes came true - but it was the most important one.
:-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

I am delighted.

Just hope that when Abbey calmed down a bit, hubby Peter got a hug!

The recording of the programme would be very special for their daughter, Sophie, in future years.

Seeing her mum dance so well, as well as seeing her grandmpther and great grandmother. Something to add to the family heirlooms.

Natalie was never going to win she was my fav for the 1st few shows I thought she was brill and raved over her rumba early on in the series but then came all the over the top poorme and the drama had to take attention away from that fact she is a trained professional dancer, thanked gowd the public cotton on to her towards the end it was pretty obvious she hadnt improved or even peaked she couldnt :-D

Suzanna got on me wires tonight as well the humbe its all the Kevin act wore thing....loved Abbey reaction to win it was annouced she had won, when bruce had to tell her to pipe down... and Sophie hmmmm could of gone to the wire but Brendans atitude certainly didnt win her any votes...

So that its for another year thank you to MG for posting yet another fab thread and thank you to everyone for your interesting opinions and discussions <3

well I've just caught up with the results programme - voted three times for Abbey and wanted her to win all along, but have to say, strictly on dancing performance, I think Natalie should have won - that last dance of hers was superb - I think her personality lost it for her - she just wasn't humble enough, if that's the right word - she was far too cocky, whilst Abbey was like a child in a sweetshop

I'm gutted it's all over for this year - Saturday's will b very dull from now on

I thought I had that read Aljaz girlfriend had warned Abbey about being to touchy feely. :-)

Was it just me or did anyone else think Abbey was very nervous/jumpy in front of the camera tonight:-S

I daren't say on here what my MOG said her problem was :-0 but he did mention Nigella.........double :-0 :-0

yeay Abbey won :-D after trying for ages I finally got through to vote for her and Aliaz......loved them dancing together.

OH wanted Natalie to win ( tbh her dance was amazing) but, she has a smug look and I warmed more to Abbey.....and of course she is a very good dancer :-D
A very good Saturday night ..........wonder who'll be the next Strictly dancers?

Natalie, you cant take anything from her, she was very, very good. And when the judges said so, did you see Susannah's face? Like a bulldog chewing a wasp.

She and Kevin were also very touchy feely. Always stroking the back of his hand when the results were being announced.

But, what a girl Abby was! I am so pleased she won.

I feel totally exhausted! I was crying my eyeballs out all through the two shows.

Well done little Mersey Bird. OH picked Natalie from week 1 - about 3rd week I picked Abby.

I felt that Natalie was less natural/warmth than Abby.

Last few weeks the dancing has been excellent from all but I hope to heavens they pick better music to suit the dance as they all did tonight in the next series.

Is it toooooooo much to hope for that I won't have to use the mute button and not for the music??????? ;-)

Of course all my votes went to Abby ..................Natalie could of had that in the bag with her show dance it was amazing but she over cooked it on her last dance and when they were running the VT my foot was well and truely aimmed at her over acting face on the TV screen.........

WOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWW ABBY so very pleased for her :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D
