Rose has had a fantastic boost with her sign language bringing all those who are deaf/ hard of hearing together to join in which I think is marvellous. Well done to her.

Breaking News - AJ has pulled out!!

Grannynannywanny Fri 17-Dec-21 13:08:44

Poor AJ. She and Kai must be so disappointed.

Grandmabatty Fri 17-Dec-21 13:19:01

That's so disappointing. I wonder if they'll bring in Rhys. A final of two won't be quite the same.

TillyTrotter Fri 17-Dec-21 14:33:02

What a awful pity?
Devastated for A J and Kai.
If A J had been fit it would have been one of the best ever Finals in my opinion.

I know. They must be gutted, and I was so looking forward to seeing them dance because they're exciting to watch. I know they would have pulled out all the stops. I wonder what will happen now and how they will fill the show.

TillyTrotter Fri 17-Dec-21 14:58:22

I’m sure whoever wins would not want to win this way. ☹️

GrannyGravy13 Fri 17-Dec-21 14:59:27

Desperately sad for AJ and Kai to have worked so hard for many months only to be injured in the last week.

EllanVannin Fri 17-Dec-21 15:36:06

So sad isn't it ? I was banking on her winning. They must be gutted.

lavenderzen Fri 17-Dec-21 15:53:10

Oh no! So sad to here this. I had hoped they would win.

Grandmadinosaur Fri 17-Dec-21 15:57:03

I was devastated my self to hear this news earlier so I can’t imagine how AJ and Kai must be feeling. Although I know it will be a good final whatever happens I can’t help feeling a little deflated.

They should definitely bring Rhys back, to make it more of a contest. Just two couples will look terribly flat, to say nothing of all the dreadful padding out by Claudia, asking interminable questions of the couple, and yet more family videos of tearful grannies telling us how their particular grandchild deserves to win the Glitterball.

Apologies if I sound grouchy, but I was on Team AJ.

Rhys and Nancy will have no time to practise. I thought last week it would have been good to have four couples in the final as they use to do, particularly as they were all so good. AJ's injury creates a good reason for this.

Calendargirl Fri 17-Dec-21 17:51:39

Rhys and Nancy will have no time to practise

Good point! This had never occurred to me.

Josianne Fri 17-Dec-21 18:03:46

They don't need to practise a lot if they come back with maybe a couple of their previous numbers. I'm not saying they should necessarily be in the voting but just to see them dance again would add some interest and fun in a meaningful way. I hope it won't be lots of silly chat and videos.

Sweetpeasue Fri 17-Dec-21 19:56:19

Josianne I agree.

ninathenana Fri 17-Dec-21 21:07:57

I'm so sad for AJ and her partner. I had them down as the winners

Kim19 Fri 17-Dec-21 21:20:33

Yes, I had AJ as winner. Think whoever now wins will always wonder. Not a good place. I'm for Rose now. Only ever had a tissue papervbetween her and AJ

Grandmadinosaur Fri 17-Dec-21 22:00:11

The only positive in losing AJ is it solves my dilemma in who to vote for. It’s Rose to lift the glitter ball for me.

MayBeMaw Fri 17-Dec-21 22:05:10

Even more of a foregone conclusion then.

BigBertha1 Fri 17-Dec-21 22:15:59

Make it a join win for Rose and James

Grandmadinosaur Fri 17-Dec-21 22:16:23

I think so.

No. If you’re going to make it a joint win, make it a joint win for all three of them. That would solve the public dilemma. Otherwise as I mentioned before, let all three choose their two best dances, play them as videos and let the the public vote on those.

Nobody watching?
