Surely it's Chris' turn to leave :-0

Don't get me wrong, I think he's done so well but the other three are in a different league :-0

I think he is a big favourite with the public though....so who knows :-D

I don't know which of the others will join Chris in the dance off.....it could be Karim not sure he has as big a following as the other two:-0

Time will tell :-D :-D

I know Ann, it is annoying. I have been avoiding the Strictly site. I don't want to know.

Why do people think it is good to do this?

MotownGal Report 5 Dec 2019 08:26

Spoiler Alert!

Apparently the result of the Christmas Special of Strictly have been leaked online.

Emma is the last remaining female celeb. I think that she has done herself proud.

However, for me it it is the two K's all the way!


Just added the word female. Trying to prove that I am not completely off my trolley!

I think we knew it would be Chris and Alex in the dance off. Such a shame Alex went, I thought she was a lovely girl. Terrific footballer too! Chris looked gobsmacked.

Well, down to 4 now. So pleased Anton is still in with a shout.

Of the 4 remaining, two I am really rooting for.

I enjoyed Karim's performance tremendously . Was put off by the very bright lights, which distracted me some of the time. Perhaps they were not as distracting in the studio. I'm having a little trouble with my eyes at the moment, so perhaps I am extra-sensitive regarding flashing lights.

I am delighted that he is through.
i am a little disappointed for Alex, but agree that the right two people were in the dance-off and that Chris's performance was far more pleasing to watch. (Would have enjoyed it if I had seen it in the theatre).
A close call between the two of them, but probably the right decision in the end

The Samba seems to have been the Achilles heel to many of the couple this time.
Only eight couple have danced it.Four have been in the dance off. Three of them have left.
One only remaining couple not to have done the Samba is Emma and Anton.

I'm looking forward to "two dance" week next week.

Well, toss a coin...heads or tails :-D

I felt sorry for Alex who for one moment must have felt she was through to next week :-0.

I do think though that when it is a split decision like that they should go by the highest number of public votes...not Shirley's vote...I knew she would pick Chris because of her comments...... poor Alex didn't stand a chance when it was going to be decided on Shirley's vote :-( :-( :-D

Pity the result is already known :-S Don't know how it usually works but the result has been leaked.

I hope I don't see it, AnnG......I enjoy watching the Results Show on IPlayer after I've cleared away and can sit down and relax for the evening :-D

I really liked Emma's dance and like Belle thought that Kelvin was better than Karim. But Craig likes Karim and has been saying for weeks that he wanted him to get a ten. In the hands of the public now. I believe the result has been leaked again but I have not seen it. Why must they do that?

LondonBelle

LondonBelle Report 1 Dec 2019 11:16

I have to say, Tess I thought Kelvin's dance was very good, he definitely p!ayed the part and it looked professional....out of those I saw it was the best :-)

I thought that Kelvin was better than Karim. Although Karim was very good, I didn't think that it was quite worthy of 40, was surprised when Craig got his 10 paddle out.

I was also surprised when Emma and Anton got 39. She has made great improvements but i didn't think that the dance as a whole was that good.

Perhaps I am turning into a miserable old woman :-( :-(


On the other hand I wonder if Chris has got some problems with his back. Part of the time he looked rather stiff in the trunk..


I agree with London Belle, probably Chris and Alex in the dance off. But as Karim was in the dance off last week, who can tell
:-S :-S

LondonBelle

LondonBelle Report 1 Dec 2019 09:28

I didn't see Karim"s dance but if he got four 10s I guess it must have been perfect :-0

Well, I think it should be Chris & Alex in the dance off.....both dances were entertaining but had very little of the dance they were suppose to be doing :-0

Chris is far better when he doesn't have to hold his partner but I suppose the same applies to Alex to a certain extent :-D

I suppose it will be down to who the public like the most.....of course, it could one of the better dancers with Chris or Alex like last week.....then The Judges don't really have to make a decision :-0 :-D

It was obvious Saffron would go once it was her and Karim in the dance off. We were expecting it to be Saffron and Alex (as did Alex obviously) But I think the public kept her in because Craig gave her a 4. Also the public are always anything that is obviously emotion laid on thick which is what Karim did with his Mum and sisters. I didn't like Saffron's Rumba anyway.

When I heard Northern Soul on Saturday I looked
up and watched.
My son taught me how to do that when he was a teenager
loved it and still do.
Last night I thought how rude the crowd were when Andrea Bocelli was singing.
Did not need to see the dancers in my opinion.

Just caught up with the prog on iPlayer. I must have been watching a different prog, cos the ones I thought was not so good, the judges loved! :-D

Putting me Mystic Meg hat on, I thought Saffron would go this week, and I predict an all male finale. Cos the boys can do no wrong. I still think the girls are being marked down, but as I always say, what do I know? ;-) ;-)

Well, that was a one sided dance off :-0

Alex looked shocked :-0 :-D

LondonBelle

LondonBelle Report 24 Nov 2019 16:44

Only saw three of the dances last night :-(

The standard is high now :-0

Of those three dances I thought Saffron should be in the dance off :-0

We will see, what we will see :-D

I hope that this week Karim and Amy have some slower movements in their couples Choice dance. Otherwise I reckon they may have lower marks from the judges. We need to see Karim's sensitive side> It would be great if his dance could be as moving as Will's
