Given that the voting stats are never made public, they can get him out at any point if they so choose. All records have to be revealed when the show is over due to rules set by ofcom.

They are never published. They might be shared with the contestants but they have never been made public
ITV reveals voting percentages for their competitions but not the BBC

Apparently there is an arsenal online forum of 100,000 who are voting for Tony every week and he is topping the public vote.In some ways it was always a popularity contest as all of these reality / talent shows are. I did warn everyone about this! Us Arsenal fans go crazy when there’s a vote involved. I haven’t supported the campaign though, I haven’t even voted this year yet. So as they keep saying, this is what Strictly is about?

So they put Ellie in a black dress so you can hardly see her and we will wonder why she doesn’t do well or get any votes.

That was a fun show. Enjoyed: Helen & Gorka's jive; Kym & Graziano's tango; Hamza & Jowita's Cha Cha Cha One of Tyler's weakest dances but still want him to stay in - he's been one of my favouites throughout.
For predictions, I think possibly Ellie & Johannes or Fleur & Vito (despite high score) or Tony & Katya in bottom two.

Fleur now having to resort to the sob story to keep her in after 2 dance offs. Don't think it will work.

I really hope Ellie stays in. She has so much promise and it just seems like sabotage giving her the evil Rhumba after her best week.

I've been seeing elsewhere that a lot of people are voting for Ellie because they think she was undermarked -she was certainly much better than Tony despite the marks putting them so close, so that may save her (and she is very engaging.)

I really enjoyed this week. I just wish the ballroom had been a bit better!
Tyler is very engaging, but didn't dance well, and his baggy shirt annoyed me. Molly's foxtrot was drowned by sickly-sweet theming. Will's quickstep didn't have enough in hold, and his trousers were terrible.
Whoever arranged I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues, I have thoughts. And they're not terribly complimentary.
As a whole though, it was a good week. I was very impressed by Kym.

Yes, Grandma Kym very impressive. And I agree about the song arrangement ‘why they call it the blues’ it was dreadful. They always praise the singing but I don't think it has been very good lately. I read that the football guy wants to be taken seriously. If that is the case then they should chuck him out this week because he danced very poorly. Perhaps his agent can get him on something else, the jungle prog or the one with marriages or jumping off cliffs - is that one? should be.

I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues may be in waltz time (after a fashion) but it's dull and ploddy and there are much better songs they could've chosen to better effect. The arrangement didn't help. I thought Kym's Argentine Tango was far better than Hamza's ChaCha which must have looked much better in the studio than it did on telly. And the judges as usual were pathetic.

It's in 12/8 normally. It would definitely take some wrangling!

Ellie didn’t even attempt hip action in the rumba, I thought it was awful. I actually think she gets over marked, in the VT JJ was saying “more, more!” And tbh that’s what I say about her every week, she needs to give more.
I think kym and graziano were faaaar to in the zone at the end of their dance 😅, I honestly thought they were gonna kiss. If the curse was gonna hit anyone this season I’d put my money on them.
What was up with katya at the end of the dance and up with Claudia? Was she angry? Upset? Was it directed at Tony? It honestly looked like she was going to burst in to tears. What was she saying?
I thought Helen was amazing tonight, she is really stepping it up.
I think Ellie T should go. I really like katya so I do want her and Tony to stay in, but I don’t want them to win at the hands of a fan campaign. But I think neither will go and there will be an upset.

I was making small talk with a visitor from Mr Kipling earlier this week. She wants "that photographer" to win, so I think she would have been pleased with Hamza's cha-cha-cha. Helen and Gorka's black and white jive was my favourite dance of the night. And I'm glad to see they're back rehearsing in BurlyBeaR's luxury loft apartment. The people downstairs are probably less happy. 😡 Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang. Why was Craig judging in a sweater? It weren't even particularly stylish!

He hasn’t the length of bone for a polo neck.

Are polo necks making a come back? Saw one at the Bridge Theatre recently and asked the same question. Put it down to the age of Hytner's audience

Now Luke Evans is in a polo neck. Obviously I've completely missed this revival.

Really surprised Molly was in the dance off again, she must just not have as much of a fan base voting for her. Ellie T really deserved to be in the dance off and voted out.
With the inevitability of Tony reaching the final it’s now got to the point where one of the best will end up going soon. My final would be Hamza, Molly, Tyler, but I just don’t think it will happen.

Tyler looks good, nice smile but this last dance was slapdash and unappealing. And he knew it. Hamza should get to final. Molly yes, good but better than Fleur? Or Kym now Kym is showing her potential? Tony now knows he is popular and his agent knows he is employable so can we see what he does next week but if that is the shambles he did this week, he should find a way out.
