The judges see something completely different to me when they watch Louise.

The judges see something completely different to me when they watch Louise. Couldn't agree more. Both of her dances have been weak tonight and goodness me she cannot act even slightly convincingly. |

Supposed Craig only gave Ore an 8 for his quickstep, it was great! Much better than Louise in my opinion.
Think it could be Claudia and Ore in dance off or Louise and Claudia. As much as I don't want her to, think Claudia will go. Loved her quickstep though.
Really hope Danny & Oti win as they so deserve it!! I couldn't believe the way Oti jumped off that bridge into Danny!!!!

I can't cope with the judges' marks tonight.
1. Claudia & AJ - Quickstep (Deserved 40)
2. Danny & Oti - American Smooth (Deserved 40)
3. Danny & Oti - Salsa
3. Ore & Joanne - Quickstep
4. Ore & Joanne - Argentine Tango (My least favourite of the Argentine Tangos this season)
5. Claudia & AJ - Rumba
6. Louise & Kevin - Samba
7. Louise & Kevin - Tango (Woefully overmarked)
Got everything crossed for Claudia but not optimistic. If it's a Claudia/Louise dance-off and she does her quickstep and goes...I will fume.

Well, I think that the judges and the producers are doing everything to get Ore to the final. So if he is in the dance off he will be saved.
I thought Louise was very poor tonight in both dances. Frankly she should go but she wont. The judges seem to love her. I just think she is bland.
Danny the best as usual.
Claudia very good tonight and pulled it out of the bag for her last dance I thought.
So I predict that Claudia and Ore will be in the dance off with Ore saved.
It is interesting to note that they are all doing the tour except Claudia. Go figure!

The judges see something completely different to me when they watch Louise. Yes they see her signed up for the arena tour, and Claudia isn't. Sorry, I know people say I'm a conspiracy theorist but can't they see obvious? Claudia's first dance was stunning (and thank god they finally allowed her to be sexy) but the judges picked it to pieces. Louise's first dance was meh, she made a huge mistake in the middle of it and they went mad for it! Louise can't even act convincing when she's doing the "I really want to be in the final" talking head pieces. She is totally unbelievable and half-arsed. Final will be Ore, Danny and Louise as has been ordained by the producers for weeks now. Favourite dances tonight, Ore's quickstep and Danny's Misty Blue routine. Who gasped when Oti jumped off that platform? Stunning. She is absolutely gorgeous. Anyway thats it. Strictly Ballroom at the WYP this afternoon, SCD tonight. I just belched and a chunk of glitter came up  |

If Ore comes anywhere but bottom in the public vote, he will avoid the dance off.

Louise the weakest by far tonight, was dragged around in the tango and looked uncomfortable in the samba.
Good QS from Ore but the AT was pretty forgettable and the most over marked dance of the night.
Danny fantastic, what was Darcy up to with her marks given some of the sh*te she has given 10s to this series!
Claudia really upped her game with the QS. Again don't understand what Darcy was up to there with her marking. Ore's AT was nowhere near as good as that.

I do think you are right Burly, not necessarily only to do with the tour, but just with the judges not being completely objective and having favourites. Doesn't mean I'm gonna stop complaining about it though.  HOW Darcey can sit there and complain that Claudia can't act/have chemistry in her dances and then never say the same for Louise is just beyond me. There has been exactly one dance where Louise's acting has felt good enough and that was her Argentine Tango. Every other dance she's had that cheesy grin plastered on her face and nothing else, even in the Tango tonight which is surely meant to be a serious dance. I hate to rag on a lovely woman so much, but it's more to do with the judges' judgement of her than her herself. She really should be going tonight, her two dances were so incredibly unremarkable. And yep Darcey giving Claudia and Danny 9s because it's the semi-final so she 'has to be picky' but then giving that nothing-special Argentine Tango a 10? I can't. |

Apparently according to Twitter the BBC are having "technical difficulties" with the phone lines and no one can vote. Online too apparently.

Although that does render tonight pointless. I did manage to vote. It annoyed me when Darcey said about there being a hint of flirtation between Louise and Kevin (meaning there wasn't much) when it's all she goes on about with Claudia. |

I had trouble voting online but managed eventually after refreshing the page several times. Family member had no trouble phoning.
I thought the marks were bonkers tonight. I thought Claudia's quickstep was stunning, as was Danny's AS. Both deserved 40.
What was going on with the costumes? Joanne in black when there are only 4 competitors so have more colours at their disposal. Why did Louise have mini ping pong balls on her left lady-mountain? Why was Kevin wearing a cardy from Happy Days for a tango? Had Claudia lost weight in between her hideous purple dress fitting and wearing it tonight? The costumes have been generally lovely this season. Not tonight though.
I reckon, sadly, Claudia and Louise for the DO with Claudia leaving. (Hope I'm wrong.)
And no way was Ore better than Danny.

Interesting, ive voted twice this evening via phone with no problem at all Really hoping Claudia goes tonight, dont get the love for her at all. I find her quite bland. Louise was the weakest tonight but I do enjoy watching her more. Voted for Ore, considering his lack of previous training I think he is amazing and was ridiculously undermarked by Craig |

I'm getting really tired of all the pointless conspiracy theories - the winner doesn't always do the tour so to suggest it's fixed to get rid of those not doing the tour has no basis whatsoever. Of course the judges have their favourites, just like everyone watching does, it's all subjective.
I'm away for the weekend so won't get to watch until tomorrow night, but Danny, Ore and Claudia would be my preferred final, so hopefully Louise ends up in the dance-off. If it is her against Claudia I'll be happy.

I agree Anthony40 - will be interesting to see how popular Danny is now that he's not at the top of the leader board. (Even though he deserves to be.)
Can anyone remember whether they dance their higher or lower scored dance in the DO?
